Wing
nuts

December 18, 2013 -- The right-wing nut jobs at Fox just don't give up. The drumbeats about Obamacare seem endless.

Yes, Obama's promise that if we like our health insurance policies we could keep them was ill-considered. He should have added, "...if they satisfy certain minimum requirements."

The surprise was that many didn't. They were junk and should never have been allowed to be sold; canceling and replacing them with honest policies is actually one of the benefits of the Obamacare legislation.

Yes, there are bad parts of this legislation, too, e.g. that it leaves in place the cash-sucking fee-for-service providers and the yet-more-cash-sucking insurance middlemen. These are discussed in other blog entries here.

It's all in how you spin it, and Fox outspins the White House. The amazing part is that people fall for it. But then, they can't spell, either.
