Obama Arizona Memorial Speech: We Must Communicate 'In A Way That Heals,' Not 'Wounds'

Thursday, January 13, 2011

You do not know what you're talking about.

You need to read the legislatio­n and not just parrot sound bytes about legislatio­n you haven't a clue as to how it works.

Short version of the "mental health services" in Obama's health insurance giveaway act:

Do you know what Medicaid is, dear?

Do you know that states are required to share in the costs of Medicaid, and that states are going bankrupt, and they are cutting Medicaid services if not opting out of having to provide Medicaid services altogether­.

In Arizona alone, more than 45% of mental healthcare services recipients have been forced off the rolls since Obama signed the legislatio­n into law.

And we're not even talking about mental healthcare coverage through health insurance policies, which the legislatio­n doesn't address at all.

No cost controls, no limits on deductible­s, no limits on co-pays, and where is that push Harry Reid promised for a public option "if we only pass Obama's legislatio­n now" (March, 2010)?
