With the Affordable Care Act completely fixed by a few statements in a press conference by our President, he has deemed it OK to head off on the campaign trail again. Seems legit, apparently by just breathing the words everything is good to go, and he can go back to what he knows, bumpin’ uglies with the blue blood and blathering about how great he and his party is. No pesky reporters asking mean spirited questions, just a bunch of like minded rich people happy to listen to the great orator speak and toss some cash at him. Thank you President Obama…all is well.

Problem is, all is not well. Over five million people have lost their healthcare, insurers aren’t sure what the hell to do, and even worse, what do these people do who have lost their plan in the interim? I have not heard of a bridge policy to cover people who were cancelled who can’t get coverage from the ACA.

Shouldn’t the President be in a room with a bunch of really, really, really smart people pounding out some kind of a solution?
Obviously not, that is what makes Obamas press conference on “the fix” a complete and total sham. The legal issues facing his “fix” are complex, just cause ya say it, don’t mean it works. And he knows that, this is another fraud to cover his democratic jock swingers. He was forced to come out and say something, even when he knows that the insures can’t do what he just told them to do. This is a whitewash on a Pinto praying it doesn’t rain.

 

Where is the leadership? Whilst he is out and about doing his thing, who has the task of backing up his speech? Bueller…Bueller…..oh I see, nobody. He is hoping for a website fix, then he can tell people who have lost the plan to go get Obamacare because it works now and you will love it. The big stall.

 

I wonder what a businessman would do? What would somebody who has been in the trenches, knowing that if his plan does not work, people could lose everything, potentially their lives. What would somebody who has had a payroll to meet, hundreds of thousands of jobs determined by decisions made by him….what would a real leader do? Guess we will never know.
