... the author already had made a career of being mad at everything Obama had ever done or tried to do. On the occasion of the "POS used car salesman" rant the author (I got in trouble one time for referring to him by his initials in a subject line) tipped over into permanent spittle flecked rage territory. Whatever his former merits as a warrior against BushCheney, he's now just another online blogger with a permanent grudge, imo.

Also unfortunately for any remaining sympathy I had for him and his wife, he by his own admission failed to do any kind of due diligence whatsoever regarding what kind of coverage would be offered in the state he moved to (I think he went from Boston to New Hampshire) and what kind of medications would be covered in the health care plan he signed up for.

And somehow this was all Obama's fault.

I also have chronic conditions. My husband and I work with our doctor and the insurance company to make sure I get what I need. We have to do this every year. It just is what it is.

It's not Obama's fault.
