Why don't you ask Rafe Cruz? He's the one spouting the nonsense about sugar.

Is the website fixed?

I've been out of it, working these 12 hour shifts for nearly a week solid. Off last night and tonight, though. Got in some gym time.....and now, I chill.

The point is, were all phucked
Since enrollment closes on 3/15 or 3/30, who do you think will sign up first, Jim? That would be the poor who qualify for Medicaid. Everyone else is in a wait and see mode until they get closer to the deadline. That was exactly how it worked with RomneyCare in Mass.

So how do you come to the conclusion that we're all "phucked"?

BTW you look much more intelligent and mature with your tongue sticking out. It reminds me of Whell.

We had open enrollment meetings today. Aside from the normal annual increase it looks as though all things will be the same for me. Hell, I don't even have to do anything if I don't want to change from last year. just business as usual.

Thankfully the company that I work for is staying on the up and up and not doing dirt bag maneuvers like not providing insurance.

Off to schedule some dental appointments as I have a bunch of money left in the que there....

I think the talk track about the cancellations being "bad insurance plans" has been summarily debunked. And at least the "bagger" governor and congress in this state has authorized the expansion of Medicare.

Try again, Ice.

Another viewpoint...

Subject:Nailed on
Fox News
This email, read on Friday's Special Report, is the
most poignant, damning summary of the Obamacare ever written.

This
message came to us from Bill in Kentucky.
"Putting
things in perspective: March 21st 2010 to October 1 2013 is 3 years, 6 months,
10 days. December 7, 1941 to May 8, 1945 is 3 years, 5 months, 1
day. What this means is that in the time we were attacked at Pearl
Harbor to the day Germany surrendered is not enough time for this progressive
federal government to build a working webpage. Mobilization of millions,
building tens of thousands of tanks, planes, jeeps, subs, cruisers,
destroyers, torpedoes, millions upon millions of guns, bombs, ammo, etc.
Turning the tide in North Africa, Invading Italy, D-Day, Battle of
the Bulge, Race to Berlin - all while we were also fighting the Japanese in
the Pacific!! And in that amount of time - this administration can't
build a working
webpage."
