For five-year-old Isaac, Obamacare means opportunity: http://OFA.BO/WNXrxB







"I know people call this law Obamacare. And that's okay— because I do care. I do. I care about you. I care about families. I care about Americans." —President Obama at the White House Youth Summit

If you care, add your name: http://OFA.BO/fStvoL

Imagine the people who are being helped through ObamaCare like little Isaac who is so thrilled to be wearing this t-shirt!

From your link..


"Before Obamacare, Isaac's pre-existing conditions could have disqualified him from future coverage. Isaac and his family would have had a difficult— if not impossible—time finding insurance that would cover him. And his parents estimate that if lifetime limits were still legal today, Isaac would have already reached his a second time."

Great thread, mahalo, she~

My wife bought the "Healthcare is a BFD" t-shirt a couple years ago. It's nice to see all the negative stories disappearing and the positive ones becoming more prevalent.

We plan on signing up for the ACA when we (hopefully) retire in 2015.

4. The news station here reported last night that quite a few Idahoans have signed up.

Through the state's exchange.

The news anchor, who has been obvious for the past decade and a half about being a Republican, seemed happy about it when she reported this story.
She reported that over 1700 Idahoans had signed up for the ACA already.

And although that doesn't sound like many people, considering how much the mainstream media has demonized President Obama and the ACA for the last 5 years, it is a good sign that at least some people are NOT listening to the cacophony of lies and outright distortions being repeated ad nauseam by the rightwing politicians, pundits, and the hate radio programs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week about the ACA.

9. I suspect Cheetos has had one too many drinks already. I'm trusting you to stay sharp, though! Wish
