has he rejoined the party of stupid?
But shhh! Don’t call it Obamacare, they say, for they despise that law.In the latest example, vociferous Obamacare critic and Texas Gov. Rick Perry is seeking roughly $100 million in federal funds under a program set up under Obamacare, called Community First Choice, to help states provide home-based health care to chronically ill Medicaid patients, as Politico reported this week.Perry’s office said Politico’s story was “not accurate” and pointed TPM to a Texas Tribune article in which the governor’s aides downplay the connection of the funds to Obamacare, and noted that what they’re seeking is not the broader Medicaid expansion to extend eligibility to more low-income residents.
i wrote about this yesterday, today i say the same thing there is no such thing as a little pregnant, if you are in for a penny you're in for a pound if you except expansion you are buying in and any other words still come to the same conclusion.
you are taking advantage of a good deal but in the malaise of obstruction you call it names most egregious "an abomination" so now that you see you were wrong you want in but you have to save face and you go underground in you to get "YOUR" ObamaCare, deceitful as they are they have not mastered it.
“The bottom line is it has nothing to do with Obamacare,” said Perry spokeswoman Allison Castle.Only it has everything to do with Obamacare. As the Department of Health and Human Services explained last February, the new Community First Choice program was explicitly set up under the Affordable Care Act and offers federal funds so states can pay a higher reimbursement rate to providers of home-based care. The aim was to ratchet back an incentive for ill patients to go to a nursing facility when they can be cared for at home.Perry is in good company among Republican governors, many of whom want billions of federal funds under the law’s Medicaid expansion, but don’t want to call it Obamacare.
they are lying and trying to convince you not to engage in what they themselves are clambering for, more exclusionism or just right wing selfishness, what will the ins. co's think of their bribee's for jumping ship and going with their enemy while still trying to push the insurance agenda handling "we the people" and your money, are they torn between what's ruight and wrong, nah they know a good deal when they see one after all they ran for office didn't they?
