Reason #2: Stop The Incompetence. Stop Mark Dayton.

Democrat Mark Dayton fully embraced Obamacare, creating an expensive and broken exchange known as MNsure. The rollout of MNsure was a disaster; the $155 million website was broken when it launched, and it has caused health insurance premiums to skyrocket. Dayton deceived the public about the problems, and on top of it all, MNsure managers received bonuses in spite of the failures.

Reason #2: Obamacare bonuses for failed system and cost increases

Dayton’s administration needs to take responsibility. His only answer? In the debate last Friday, he said they are “working around the clock” to make sure MNsure is ready for the upcoming November 15th open enrollment period. (Almanac, 10/31/14)

Seriously, after 18 months and now up to $189 million dollars, the website still doesn’t work right, so people have to work around the clock? That is mismanagement and incompetence on a scale we can’t allow to continue.

  1. Obamacare executives were given bonuses for their broken website. “As the state rolled out its troubled health insurance exchange, MNsure managers received bonus pay totaling $26,354 for work done in the three months leading up to the Oct. 1launch.” (Star Tribune, 1/30/14)
  2. Mark Dayton hid MNsure’s problems from the public. On September 19th, 2013 Mark Dayton was informed of MNsure’s broken website. Then on October 22nd, 2013 Dayton tried to hide it with a statement claiming MNsure was performing “phenomenally well.” (WCCO, 10/22/13)
  3. Dayton’s administration created a broken Obamacare website, increasing the cost of health insurance for Minnesotans. Dayton’s health insurance rate increase was “misleading” and it is much higher than he reports. In fact, “the vast majority of MNsure clients should expect a rate increase anywhere from 8 to 43 percent.” (KSTP, 10/8/14)

The absolute height of the incompetence? Through all of this, Mark Dayton has not proposed one single fix to the MNsure program. Not one.

Medic BiASS: No Mentions of Conservatives/GOP in Networks’ Coverage of Latest ObamaCare ‘Fix’

No Mentions of Conservatives/GOP in Networks’ Coverage of Latest ObamaCare ‘Fix’

ABC, CBS, and NBC all devoted air time to the Obama administration’s latest “fix for the botched health care rollout” on their Friday morning newscasts, but failed to include any conservative or Republican reaction to this development. Good Morning America minimized their coverage, airing just two news briefs on “the White House offering relief now for people who lost their health insurance because it didn’t meet standards required by the…health care law.” Today and CBS This Morning both spotlighted the insurance industry’s worries over this change, but didn’t get around to the possible political fallout over the White House announcement. Guthrie only vaguely asserted how the “fix” might be “more ammunition for the critics of the law.”

MSNBC’s Hayes: GOPers ‘Screwing Over’ People, View ‘Poverty as Punishment’

On Thursday’s All In show, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes repeatedly used words like “screwing over” to describe Republican policies toward the poor, and claimed that Tea Partiers in Congress believe in “poverty as punishment” as he fretted over a delay in the extension of unemployment benefits and then hyped Georgia Republican Rep. Jack Kingston’s suggestion that school children do chores in exchange for subsidized lunches. After characterizing recent statements by congressional Republicans as being like immaturely declaring, “Yeah, and your mother,” the MSNBC host a bit later whined: “So Republicans leave 2013 impotent and neutered. But even though their bullying and hectoring is mostly false, it doesn’t mean they don’t still have the power to kick people who are down. They can’t make the White House do what they want it to do, but the one thing they can do, the one thing they are successful at doing, the thing that they deliver reliably is screwing over poor and working people.”

MSNBC’s Taylor Invents ‘Hypocrisy’ Charge Over GOP Views on Duck Dynasty Vs. ObamaCare

On Thursday’s PoliticsNation, MSNBC political analyst Goldie Taylor ludicrously saw “hypocrisy” in Republicans speaking out against A&E possibly firing Duck Dynasty‘s Phil Robertson while opposing ObamaCare’s contraception mandate as she failed to note that ObamaCare, as opposed to the Duck Dynasty controversy, is an issue of forcing employers by law to obey the government in spite of religious objections. Without providing any quotes as evidence, she accused conservatives of making Phil Robertson’s employment with A&E into a First Amendment issue, and then failed to note that ObamaCare actually does involve the First Amendment, and went on to make a lame joke quoting Gomer Pyle from the television show Gomer Pyle, USMC.

Not Human! Obamacare! More ObamaScare!! Yep More! Welfare!! Fast and Furious!

Hope ‘n’ Change: ObamaCare Premiums and Death Panels

Recall the halcyon days of 2008 and 2009 when Barack Obama promised, “If you already have health insurance, the only thing that will change for you under this plan is the amount of money you will spend on premiums. That will be less.” Good times, good times.

Along with just about every other lofty promise that came with the Unaffordable Care Act, this one has come crashing back to earth. A recent California report on premiums in the Golden State seemed to show that costs would be lower than expected. Actually, the truth is that premiums will cost as much as 146 percent more than today. The reason is that California, as The Wall Street Journalput it, “goosed the data” and “wasn’t comparing apples to apples.”

Meanwhile, the IRS issued a final ObamaCare regulation last week that assumes that the cheapest family health insurance plan will cost $20,000 a year by 2016. And the House Energy and Commerce Committee just published a report called “The Looming Premium Rate Shock” detailing that some premiums could quintuple. In fact, Politico reports, “Dozens of lawmakers and aides are so afraid that their health insurance premiums will skyrocket next year thanks to Obamacare that they are thinking about retiring early or just quitting.”

As premiums rise, however, leftists are bending over backwards to explain that it’s no big deal because everyone will be better off — well, except for the millions paying more for insurance, or the 31 million people who still won’t have insurance. Funny, but we don’t remember hearing any of that in 2009 or even 2012.

Obamacare 2023: 31 Million Uninsured, $1.8 Trillion in Taxpayer Dollars Spent

  • Obamacare will add an estimated 13 million people into the failing and broken Medicaid program;
  • 24 million people will obtain coverage through the law’s exchanges, 19 million of whom will have their coverage subsidized by the government;
  • 7 million are expected to lose their current employer-sponsored coverage (breaking that firm presidential promise); and
  • About 5 million people will no longer obtain their coverage in the non-group market.

Vet

Army Master Sgt. C.J. Grisham, the decorated vet arrested last month after “rudely displaying” his rifle while on a hike with his 15-year-old son, was still without his firearms on Thursday. Police in Temple, Texas are holding onto his AR-15 (and .45.-cal. pistol) until his case is resolved, and as you know, the wildly popular rifles aren’t cheap to replace.

But on Friday, Black Rain Ordnance, a Missouri firearms company, graciously offered to give Grisham his choice of any AR-15 rifle at a significantly discounted price — free.

“When we heard about his situation, it was obvious that his rights were trampled on,” Charlie Spires, the gun company’s co-founder, told TheBlaze at the 2013 NRA Convention in Houston on Friday. “Then we hear that they basically confiscated his weapon and he can’t get it back — what can we do? That the was the next question we asked.”

Spires said there were some suggestions of “throwing some t-shirts at him,” but the company wanted to take it a step further. “Ultimately, if they’ve taken his rifle and we are a firearms manufacturer, why not give a rifle to him?”

“I’ve got goosebumps just thinking about it,” Grisham told TheBlaze after learning he would be getting a free rifle. “It’s completely unnecessary… I don’t even have words for it.”

By the way, here’s what someone who just learned he’s getting a free AR-15 looks like:

About the Affordable Care Act – ObamaCare

Ultimately, our success will depend upon whether we get busy taking care of ourselves and each other. If we had already done that, we wouldn’t have needed the ACA to begin with. Being personally and socially responsible is the only philosophy that can make healthcare reform affordable for everyone. When it comes down to it, why should anyone hate that?

Doctor? Disappeared?

Has he/she?

I have insurance..

My employer is a large private hospital, very highly rated.

My insurance is through them..

My insurance is tied to my job and my insurance dictates whom and where I and my family go, if we want “Tier 1” coverage..We have had instances where we have had to go outside of our insurance and paid dearly, damn near broke us..

Which is fine if you live close to where your insurance coverage extends…We do not..The nearest clinic for my family is 20 miles away..

When I am at work my MD is minutes away, walking distance, but since I work in a “Victim Zone(Gun Free)” I drive or take the shuttle.

I have a MD I am very pleased with…

But I also had one locally whom was very good and the whole family went to her.

Now my family rarely goes and the MBWITW, whom is a cancer survivor only sees her MD when she goes for checkups..

My boys? Only when ill or in the case of my youngest for sports related stuff.

I can buy my house, life, car, boat, motorcycle, firearms collection, RV, insurance where ever I damn well want..

But because of government intrusion and I am sure BIG Insurance lobbyists I can only by my health insurance from a very select few and then I must see their selected Physicians..

Yet I can buy car insurance and have my car fixed any damn place I want to…But cannot make the same choices for my health..

Fail…fail on government, fail on insurance, fail on those whom have forced us into this position..

Give me the freedom to make my own choices on whom I buy my health insurance from and whom I choose to provide my healthcare..

And, get the damn government and those whom think they know what I need the ‘ell out of my life!!!
