NYT replies with farce to Obamacare debate

[Quantum Windbag]

I cannot believe they actually said this.

Congressional Republicans have stoked consumer fears and confusion with charges that the health care reform law is causing insurers to cancel existing policies and will force many people to pay substantially higher premiums next year for coverage they don’t want. That, they say, violates President Obama’s pledge that if you like the insurance you have, you can keep it. Mr. Obama clearly misspoke when he said that. By law, insurers cannot continue to sell policies that don’t provide the minimum benefits and consumer protections required as of next year. So they’ve sent cancellation notices to hundreds of thousands of people who hold these substandard policies. (At issue here are not the 149 million people covered by employer plans, but the 10 million to 12 million people who buy policies directly on the individual market.)
But insurers are not allowed to abandon enrollees. They must offer consumers options that do comply with the law, and they are scrambling to retain as many of their customers as possible with new policies that are almost certain to be more comprehensive than their old ones.

What are they going to say next year when the employer plans hit the same problems?

So Obama lies,or misspeaks over and over and over,or misleads the country.
The Insurance companies have no choice but to cancel then offer a different policy that covers more and is more expensive in order to comply with Obama Care....

And it's the republicans who bring all this to light...

And they are the scumbags in all of this...

It's a well-rehearsed, standardized, choreographed dance with the DISGUSTING FILTH in the LSM.

And our resident lying dimocrap apologists will be along shortly to tell you how true the article is.

It loses some entertainment value after you've seen it a thousand or more times

Thanks for removing the slightest bit of doubt NYT as to the extent of your Barry butt licking.

Oh, and since that's what you're into have you seen the size of Mrs. Barry's? Enough there forever.
