She dodges the question of Health Care mandate being a tax.
She is a professional Politician and very good at the dodge game.
The video has been scrubbed from the Internet. NAZI police at it again.
Responding to a question from The Daily Caller, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi shied away from siding with Chief Justice John Roberts in labeling the health care laws individual mandate constitutional as a tax, telling TheDC that what youre talking about here is Washington talk.
The court has upheld the legislation. I think and I have to see the specific language that they identified with how we wrote the bill in the House as part of the decision, their documentation for the decision. Call it what you will, its a step forward for Americas families and you know what? Take yes for an answer, Pelosi, who was Speaker of the House when the health care law was signed into law, said at the Capitol Thursday.
This is a very good thing for the American people. What youre talking about here is Washington talk. Technical terms, thats for us here but means something to the American people is what it does to them.
In the past, President Obama and the White House budget director have said the fine imposed by the health care law if an individual decides not to purchase health care insurance is not a tax.
Washington Talk
Its only a tax if you don't have healthcare.
Why are you opposed to those without health insurance being forced to pay for the risk they will wind up owing an emergency room a few hundred K at the expense of you and I?
Bullshit thinking as usual here. You're focused on ONE cost aspect of this program and ignoring the fact that TAXPAYERS will be picking up the tab for MILLIONS of new MediCaid patients who show up in an emergency AT TAXPAYER EXPENSE STILL. In addition, we'll be paying TONS for the scope and cost of the infrastructure and thru all the taxes and levies on "medical device makers" and whatever OTHER nonsense that Nancy Pelosi didn't read before she passed the bill.... .
