Our CSPAN Tweets on 09/19/2013 ObamaCare Hearing

original article written by Net Advisor™

WASHINGTON, DC. On Sept. 19, 2013, a Congressional Hearing on Enrollment of Obama Care was held in Washington DC. Needless to say, it was an eye opener. The proponents talk about what’s great about it, but have yet to substantiate their claims using solid independent data.

Our conclusion is that aside from the fact that people are losing jobs, losing work hours, and losing their health-insurance BECAUSE of the implementation of ObamaCare, we see high risk of taxpayer scams that are likely to take place.

According to a piece published in the Boston Herald, costs to initially fund ObamaCare are expected to be $40 Billion vs the original $5 Billion – That’s 800% over original costs.

Gary Cohen, director of the Department of Health and Human Services’ Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight.

He was talking about the apparently surprising need to halt enrollments in a program designed as a temporary bridge for people with pre-existing conditions who couldn’t wait to be covered by the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) when it fully kicks in next year.

The program was allocated $5 billion, but some estimate it would take $40 billion to fund the effort.

Gary Cohen, deputy administrator and director of the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS.gov) was grilled by mostly (R) members of Congress yesterday on a fact finding mission.

The (D) representatives tended to defend and support Cohen and Obama Care in general. I don’t recall a single tough question a (D) Representative asked Cohen during the hearing.

Cohen had great difficulty in answering specific (R) questions. Cohen often did not know the facts to be able to answer a question, and was vague about the implication of ObamaCare. Gary Cohen is also the ObamaCare Enrollment Chief.

Here are some key tweets to summarize some of the key points in the ObamaCare Hearing broadcasted on CSPAN on Sept. 19, 2013.

Sen. Harry Reid: Obama’s 6 Year Pocket Veto

WASHINGTON DC. President Obama hasn’t had to do too much legislatively, when then Majority Whip Harry Reid (D-Nev.) effectively ruled the over the U.S. Senate from Jan. 3, 2007 to Jan. 3, 2015.

The fact that Reid had control over the U.S. Senate for six consecutive years under President Obama (and two years under Bush) did not sway many in the media including Bloomberg, CBS, the Hill, Huffington Post, Reuters, and the Washington Post, who together among others attempted to blame Republicans for a ‘do nothing Congress.’ Some Democrats have even tried to pin the Ebola Virus as caused by Republicans.

These theories are politically driven caused by massive repeating of a narrative without factual evidence. Since these ‘do nothing’ Congress issues were raised since President Obama took office in 2009 that is where we will begin our study. We included the last term of who controlled Congress before President Obama took office in case anyone was curious. Read More…

PROOF: Sen. Harry Reid (D) and President Obama Threaten Government Shutdown

WASHINGTON, DC. Despite all the political grandstanding, the facts are that the Democrats are desperate to hold on to a law that no one read, few understand, and costs have more than doubled before it even starts. The Democrats have come out in force using every tactic in the book including intentional misrepresentations of the facts to the American public just so they can get their way, even if their promises have been false, and their arguments have been wrong. Truth. Who Are the Real Obstructionists? Read More…
