Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 247 Podcast.
Yes, America's Anger Man is away, and this is your undocumented anchor man sitting in, Mark Stein, no supporting paperwork whatsoever.
And loving it.
Rush is out in California today, and uh and as you know, he's having uh surgery, and he's uh got pretty much the best uh doctors on the planet, but it's uh it's uh it's always a risky business when you have any kind of surgery, so we wish him all the best uh with that, and it means that we have a season of guest hosts.
If you can't stand the lousy guest host who's on right now, don't worry, there'll be another lousy guest host uh uh along tomorrow.
It's like the number twenty-nine bus.
The you wait for ages and then four come along all at once.
Uh tomorrow for Good Friday uh we have uh Buck Sexton is uh is here.
Uh and uh it uh am I right on this, HR?
This is this is this Buck's this is Buck's first time guest hosting, is it?
Yes, he's debutting with us.
And uh it'll probably be a fiasco, but uh give him a supporting cheer anyway.
Uh Buck Buck Sexton um and uh then uh uh next week we've got uh we got old lags like uh Mark Belling and Eric Erickson, and then I think Buck's back again, and Rush will return.
Rush will return uh sometime around midweek.
Midweek might stretch uh it may it might stretch a little bit toward it's all it it's uh it's all playing by ear by Rush's ear, which is the w the the one they're operating on.
So uh and and I love the way whenever I guest host, I always get uh a sad amount of hostile email, and a lot of it is uh who does Rush Limbaugh think he is?
Like take it all this time.
He's having an operation.
Right.
I was uh I was on the air when he had his heart trouble in Hawaii.
And he was uh if I had had heart trouble in Hawaii, but I'd have been released from hospital and I'd have picked up my vacation where I left off and uh and added another two weeks at the end of it just to make sure.
Rush couldn't wait to get back in the plane, uh fly straight home and and uh preempt the pre-scheduled guest host and start guest hosting for the the uh pre-scheduled guest host.
That's how he and it's the same thing here.
He's itching to get back, he's itching to get back.
Uh but it is um uh but but it depends on uh medical advice, depends how the operation goes and all the rest of it.
So he will he will be back at some point if all goes well, uh he'll be be he'll be back uh next.
But give the guy a break.
I mean, if I was having an operation in my ear, I'd I'd want to go to the Bahamas for a month afterwards.
So he's he's like itching to get back in the game uh as soon as he can uh as he can, and we wish him uh all the best on this.
It's uh it's amazing uh the the technological innovation.
The the first implant he had, I think was over uh decade now.
It's like twelve, thirteen years ago, something like that.
And it was amazing if you if if you remember that uh dreadful show when uh Rush said that he'd lost his hearing, people thought that was it.
And it an incredibly cruel thing.
It's like uh I don't want to insult Rush by uh uh a girly boy comparison, but it's like uh a l like a ballerina discovering she's got to have a leg amputated, and you think everything is over.
And uh instead uh he had this amazing new technology, the sort of technology uh and medical innovation uh that pre-Obamacare America was famous for.
And uh and he uh and he was able to carry on doing what he does better than any guy on the air today.
And uh and uh and uh hopefully this uh this will all go well and he'll be back here itching to get back at it next week.
But as I said, in the meantime, it's the it's the season of guest hosts.
Buck uh Sexton, Mark Belling, uh Eric Erickson all to come.
I'm here today, one-eight hundred-two eight two eight eight two.
And um the big news today, a Fox News poll.
Fox News poll.
Uh the headline says that six in ten, sixty percent.
Sixty percent of American voters think Barack Obama lies to the country on important matters some or most of the time.
I want to use that headline, by the way, because according to this poll, Fox News poll, uh released today, uh it's actually this.
Thirty-seven percent think Obama lies most of the time.
Thirty-seven percent think Obama lies most of the time.
Uh while another twenty-four percent says he lies some of the time.
An additional so that's like sixty-one percent right there.
We're getting up to two thirds.
Sixty-one percent.
Another twenty-one percent, another twenty percent of voters say Obama only lies now and then about peripheral stuff like your health care plan.
Uh he only lies now and then.
So that's eighty-one percent of Americans think their president is a liar.
Fifteen percent of Americans, fifteen, one five percent of Americans think he never lies.
Uh so I don't know who that who's in that group.
Chris Matthews, Beyoncé, Jay-Z.
I don't know how you get up to fifteen percent on that.
But uh eighty-one percent, eighty-one percent of Americans think Barack Obama is a liar, their president.
And I find uh I uh I find that uh interesting because the whole point about uh politics is uh in i in a civilized society is that you're supposed to assume the honor and integrity of people participating in the political process.
If you are one of those sad people with nothing better to do uh than watch uh question time from uh the House of Commons in London or Ottawa or Canberra, I think they they show bits on it on C SPAN two, three, four, and five uh uh uh now you can see you you can see it basically anywhere.
You notice they will say, uh when when uh when the socialist guy stands up and says that the conservative guy is just trying to smash working families and drive them to their deaths, uh the conservative guy stands up and says, uh with respect to my right honorable friend opposite.
In other words, all that stuff, the honorable friend, the right honorable.
In Congress, is it not the case?
The uh the the uh congressmen are called the honorable this and the honorable that, aren't they?
That's where it comes from.
They're meant to be on honorable people.
You assume they're honorable.
Lying, lying, lying is the worst thing you can do uh in in the political world.
In in the most famous British uh sex scandal, the profumo scandal, uh, in which uh the Secretary of State for War, this is early 1960s, uh was sleeping with a woman who was also sleeping with the Russian military attache at the Soviet embassy in London.
Uh he he had to resign.
His career was destroyed, not because he slept with some tart, uh, but because he lied to the House of Commons about it.
In other words, lying, lying.
The presumption that the uh a a civilized political society depends on the fact that these guys are not lying.
And that's true here, too.
Uh it's like instead of putting up with some wacky foreign comparison, you're the the founding father of this great nation, George Washington, the supposedly apocryphal story uh about uh his own mayor culpa, you know, I cannot tell a lie, uh I did cut down that uh that cherry tree.
Uh and uh nobody there's some doubt as to whether that story is ever but the fact that that story is told about George Washington testifies to how valued honesty is, and we don't have that now.
So uh you you just get this weasley stuff from Obama.
Eighty one percent of Americans think Obama is a liar, you know.
And so if he were had a chair I cannot tell a lie.
Uh cherry trees were cut down.
That's why I'm challenging Republicans uh in Congress to support the affordable cherry tree act I've proposed.
Uh if you like your cherry tree, you can keep your cherry tree.
Unless the uh the secretary of cherry trees determines you'd be better off if your cherry tree were replaced by a stick with a redboard ball bearing stuck on top of it.
You know, we're gonna get the guy who made that cherry tree video and uh they riled everybody up and we're gonna throw him in prison.
I mean, this is eighty-one percent of Americans have just uh replied in a poll that they think the president is a liar.
So we'll talk about that today.
1800, 282-282.
Uh on the subject of polls, uh markable headlight in the Washington Post.
I think this they're doing this to discredit the lying poll.
Like, you know, what are these guys?
What do These guys know.
Most Americans say Obama is not black.
This is the other big poll today.
Twenty-seven percent of Americans say President Obama is black.
And uh and uh this is part of this is why the Pew their their Washington Post is criticizing the Pew poll.
Uh twenty-seven percent of Americans said President Obama is black, while fifty-two percent say he's mixed race.
That's because he's he uh his uh he had a white mother and a uh black father from Kenya.
And yeah, and that's usually having one out of two parents being white would be enough to make you mixed race.
But he's like Elizabeth Warren, you know, Elizabeth Warren, who I think uh is one uh sixty claims to be, claims to be one sixty-fourth Cherokee, and on the basis of that, the University of Harvard promoted her as their first woman of color for years.
Elizabeth Warren.
Uh we'll get to Elizabeth Warren late later, because uh I I hope she gets into the race.
Uh the old uh the the the woman with the Cherokee cheekbones from Massachusetts.
Senator Elizabeth Warren.
But she claimed she she was promoted as Harvard University's uh woman, uh first woman of color.
She's the whitest white since Frosty the Snowman fell in a vat of white out.
You can't get whiter than Elizabeth Warren, but she's got a new book uh out uh today say complaining about how people are mocking her, uh how hurt she was by people mocking her as a Native American uh because she claims to be one 132nd Cherokee or whatever it is.
But anyway, that's what that's what's going on here.
Uh uh the Washington Post thinks that 52% of Americans are wrong for saying uh that Obama is mixed race, and they're basically operating the one drop rule uh I would say that uh that uh if you're uh if you've got one drop, or even if you don't have one drop, if you just like to have one drop, like Elizabeth Warren.
She just she just self-identified as as potentially having one drop, uh, then you should be allowed to.
So the American people are wrong to identify President Obama's a mixed race president.
Um but uh whether eighty-one percent uh of them uh r are wrong to uh think he's a liar is something we're gonna be talking about in uh in the hours ahead, including uh in one of those fish rots from the head down type deals, uh whether Lois Lerner and the IRS and the Department of Justice and now the Census Bureau uh have also been corrupted by this uh this culture of lying.
But that's that's the big headline today.
Eighty-one percent of the American people think the President of the United States is a liar.
And apparently that is just business as usual in this great republic.
1-800-282-2882, Mark Stein in for Rush, more straight ahead.
Yeah, guest hosts boogieing down uh through the Easter period on the Rush Limbaugh show, Buck Sexton here tomorrow.
Mark Belling and Eric Erickson will start the week with you, and Rush will return when he uh is uh fully installed with his uh his new bionic air, he will be he will be better than ever, and he'll he's itching to get back and uh and all being well that's that should uh as H.R. says uh everyone's playing it by ear, uh but uh it should be uh midweek uh Wednesday if all all goes well.
Uh talking about that poll that said uh eighty-one percent of Americans to some degree or another uh believe that the president of the United States is a liar.
Uh fifteen percent don't.
That's basically the the media and uh the uh and Hollywood, and that's it.
And uh eighty-one eighty-one percent.
And w what does this mean?
Uh well, Lois Lerner, in a big uh breaking development in the whole IRS thing, uh it turns out that uh it's not nobody's even pretending now.
This whole thing, if you remember the official explanation is that this was just a few rogue low-level employees at some obscure Cincinnati branch office that it all got a little bit out of hand at this obscure little branch office in Cincinnati, and they started targeting people who, by coincidence, all happen to be of a conservative persuasion.
Uh It turns out, in fact, from the uh discovery of uh under Freedom of Information requests of uh various uh emails yesterday that in fact Lois Lerner and the highest levels in the IRS were coordinating with the Justice Department uh about whether they could actually prosecute, whether they could actually prosecute Tea Party types.
Now again again, uh this is corruption at one level, because uh when you have the revenue agency of your country that is corrupt, that's about as basic corruption as it can get.
And it's something to think about on tax day.
You can faithfully I don't even know why people bother uh with uh coming up with an accurate kind of tax return anymore, because there's no, as Don Rumsfeld said in that letter that Rush talked about yesterday, there's no correct answer.
It's not only that you can go to ten different accountants, you you can earn a relatively small amount of money, like forty grand a year, and go to ten different accountants and they'll give you a uh all give you ten different answers what you owe.
But if you call ten different IRS agents, they'd tell you at uh ten different answers.
Two, nobody knows the correct answer to the question.
As Don Rumsfeld said there is no correct answer to the question, how m many taxes do I how much in taxes do I owe?
Because the tax code has been complicated beyond the capacity of the human brain to understand it.
So it's now all you just hope to be in that murky penumbra where you you've claimed, you've claimed enough of your deductions, but not too much that it all gets a bit too assertive and you attract the attention of the IRS.
You just hope to swim in that murky penumbra where whatever number you come up with won't be enough to attract their attention.
Now we learn that they're that they're uh cor so corrupt that they're liaising with uh the Justice Department of the United States uh to see if uh if if uh Tea Party groups can actually be prosecuted for the uh f for uh f for for applying for 501 C three and four uh status.
So it's now a different kind of thing.
It's the Justice Department.
So the IRS is corrupt, the revenue collection agency is corrupt, the Justice Department of the United States is famously corrupt.
It it uh if it decides to prosecute you, it wins uh, I believe it's now ninety-four percent of its cases, which is up there at Saddam Hussein Kim Jong-un levels of successful prosecution.
In in fairness to North Korea and Saddam's Iraq, they actually held the show trial.
They'd actually take you into a joke court with a joke judge and a joke prosecutor and uh and actually pretend to have a trial before they string you up round the back of the courthouse ten minutes afterwards.
Uh that's not the way they do it.
That's the way they do it here.
If you attract their attention, uh the Federal Justice Department, you will wind up settling.
Because if you if you decide to exercise your right to trial by jury, they will uh they'll uh they'll uh demand even more punishments for making them having to go through the trouble of proving you guilty.
So it's a very serious business when the revenue agency and the Justice Department of the Government are colluding in ganging up on its political enemies.
I mean, this is real banana republic stuff now.
That's clear banana republic stuff now.
Now we'll go to the third thing.
The census.
They have changed the way, they are changing the way the census collects insurance information uh for from American citizens.
Now, that's amazing, isn't it?
Just at the very moment when the entire insurance uh industry is transformed by Obamacare, the census, which is supposed to collect just basic information, factual, undisputable information that can be compared going back across the centuries to whenever the first sentence was the first sentence uh was first census 1790 or 1800.
You're supposed to be able to compare back across the decades, back across the centuries, the information you're taking in.
Instead, they're changing it to obscure the fact that uh to uh to obscure knowing the truth about how Obamacare has deformed the insurance market in the United States.
And my senator, Judd Gregg, who was my senator before uh Kelly Aud became senator.
He so he uh he stepped down a couple of uh years ago.
And if you remember, he was offered after the 2008 election, because Obama wanted to get to sixty senators, so he wanted to take some Republicans out of the game.
He was offered the job of commerce secretary.
And interestingly, he gave the reason why he would not take the job was that Obama had changed the rules so that the director of the census reports directly to White House staff.
So even how many people live in your household, uh what size home do you have, how many children do you have?
All the most basic factual information of the census is now being politicized uh by an increasingly corrupt government.
Justice Department, uh health care, census, revenue collectors, the whole deal.
Yeah, great to be with you.
Don't forget uh Buck Sexton will be here tomorrow.
Rush will return round about the middle of next week, all being well.
Uh I I wanted to I I wanted to uh uh talk about specifically about this IRS email.
Th the the devastating one here is from David a guy called David Fish, who's acting manager of IRS exempt organizations technical guidance and quality assurance, which is some kind of title.
He must have the world's longest business card.
It must be he sticks it into his jacket pocket, must be coming out the bottom of his pant leg.
Uh Lois uh he sent it to Lois Lerner, and this is about where they discuss uh the targeting of uh of the Tea Party groups and the conservative groups.
And he replies, what can I say?
Tell Ruth, uh who who's a U.S. Treasury official, she needs to get on the stick and that the next election cycle is around the corner.
This is obviously a wonderful idea.
That's why we suggested it.
This is a civil servant, a man who is supposed to serve impartionally, impartially all American citizens, and he is in fact a political operative.
And the Department of Justice a political operatives.
They're going after uh Dinesh D'Souza, because he made a documentary about Obama that was too big a hit, so his life has got to be destroyed now.
And the census are political operatives now.
The census have d transformed the way they collect information uh in order to obscure the reality of what has happened to the insurance industry uh under under Obamacare.
Uh eighty-one percent of Americans believe the president lies to one degree or another.
Uh if you're if you're in the nineteen percent who don't, by the way, give me a call.
I'd love to talk to you.
I'd like 1-800-282-2882.
And you know this is the difference uh, by the way, between uh between men of integrity, between the right honorable so-and-so, and this administration, this corrupt government.
Because uh if you like big government uh and you argue for it honestly and openly, I've I've no problem with that.
I quite like that apart from the fact that she pretends to be Cherokee.
Elizabeth Warren, as far as I can tell, is reasonably up front about what she believes in.
I'd rather have I know what she believes, and no idea about what Hillary happens uh to think on anything from as she sticks her finger in the wind out the uh out the State Department window.
I have no idea what she believes.
Elizabeth Warren is probably up front.
She's uh she's basically a hardcore leftist and she wants to run as a hardcore leftist.
That's how they do it in most cases.
Sweden, Sweden has big government, but it's honest big government.
You don't the nobody's worried that the Swedish Prime Minister is lying to you, that the Swedish Revenue Agency is lying to you, the Swedish Department of Justice is lying to you, that the Swedish Census Bureau is lying to you.
It's big government up front, where's it on its chest?
Out and proud.
Uh this this is some this is an entirely different level.
Let's take it let's take it to foreign policy.
There's a piece in Forbes.
Uh there's a piece in Forbes today uh by the great historian, distinguished historian Paul Johnson, an old colleague of mine.
And the headline is, Is Vladimir Putin Another Adolf Hitler, uh, in the sense that uh he he Putin wants to reconstitute all the Russian peoples, whether they're in the Ukraine, whether in the Central Asia, whether in they're in the Baltic states under a new Russian empire, in the same way that German populations to the east of Germany uh uh uh Hitler wanted to reincorporate into the Third Reich.
And obviously, if Putin is Hitler, uh then that makes our guys Neville Chamberlain.
And uh and so Paul Johnson says uh, yeah, you know, our our guys are total squishes, uh Francois Hollande is another Chamberlain, and David Cameron and Ankala Merkel are both useless, they're Chamberlains.
Uh but Obama is beyond chamberlain.
And look, uh Neville Chamberlain got it wrong, and that's all very well.
But Neville Chamberlain was an honorable man.
He was just an honorable man who happened to be wrong.
He wasn't a liar like Obama.
Eighty-one percent of people didn't think Neville Chamberlain was a a liar.
Uh when Churchill took over, he kept Chamberlain in the cabinet.
Uh uh uh Chamberlain was sick with cancer and died whatever it was a year later, I think it was, and uh Churchill wept on his on his funeral coffin at the death of an honorable man.
Obama Obama uh is not even Neville Chamberlain.
Eighty-one percent of the American people think the President of the United States lies to them.
Lies to them.
And that's what's actually bad about this.
If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor thing.
And he and and he isn't apologized for that.
All he said, all he said so far, is that, well, maybe we should have explained that uh if you like your doctor, you'll be able to keep your doctor unless we decide that it's in your interest for us to upgrade you to an even better doctor.
Because your last plan was one of those bad Apple plans.
Uh and so our experts have determined that you're actually going to be better off in this plan.
And maybe uh maybe I should have said, instead of saying if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor, I should have said, unless he's one of those lousy bad apple doctors, in which case we're gonna find you a really great doctor.
Margaret uh figure Figueroa uh ran into Obamacare.
She has had four brain operations for a neurological disorder.
She uh enrolled in an approved health care program from Emblem Health under the Affordable Care Act, and she received uh f as as a bonus prize for enrolling, a temporary ID card.
Uh when she went to the pharmacy, the temporary ID card turned out to be useless.
Her name wasn't in the system.
Then she found out that her doctors were not included in this new medical plan from Emblem Health Insurance.
Uh the other doctors, two of them are full to capacity, and the others aren't even in my radius.
There are some who don't even speak English.
There are some who there's nothing wrong with uh there's nothing wrong with having a doctor who can't speak to you in your own language.
What do you mean so picky for?
They've determined, the experts have determined that you had a bad apple, bad apple medical arrangements before, and now Obama has found you an uh uh uh an improved one.
This is when the president of the United States lies serially, as he did about this, if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor thing, and the media won't call him on it, and nobody will call him on it.
He's getting you to collude in his lies.
That's how it works.
Uh that's that's how it works in like totalitarian societies.
Everyone pretends to accept the ruler's lies.
And you shouldn't do it here.
You shouldn't be made an accomplice in this kind of stuff.
Let's go to Mac in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
Mac, you're first up on America's number one radio show today.
Great to have you.
Thank you, Mark.
It's a privilege.
I've listened for years and uh it's a chance to call in.
Thank you for having me on.
I I wonder how long the politically motivated media can keep the lid on the bottle, uh, you know, from uh from uh the administration's policies to Obamacare uh you know for the president to stand with.
With a handful of people, cherry pick people that say how wonderful health care is and how wonderful Obamacare is, you could have uh you know a thousand times that number stand behind him and talk about how devastating Obamacare is for them and how they lost their doctors, they don't have coverage, uh the dire situation they are now in.
And uh you know, even with the the economy, you know, they give out numbers, the media gives numbers, and then a few months later they're revised, but they give an uh a statement of anticipation of what they expect the economic numbers might be in a few months.
And I think that the reality of this administration's policies as they affect people on a daily way in their lives and they actually live them and experience them.
Uh it'll come to the point where you'll see the change at the at the on election day.
Uh I just wonder how long they can actually keep the the the lid on the bottle and as far as you know in the elections the the biggest hampering to the uh Republican Party or any candidate of opposition to this administration.
I'm not even going to define Democrat and Republican, any opposition to this administration, becomes so diminished in the media and so attacked, the dollar amount you'd have to spend to campaign, not just against your opponent, but against the disinformation from the media, it's almost like the media should have to declare what their contribution is to a political, you know, to the Democrats or to Obama or any of the people that are under him or support him in any
way, fashion.
Yeah, that's an absolute information problem.
blackout that's that's an interesting that's an interesting way of putting it uh uh uh Mac and uh it's like it's like there's an old showbiz line.
You know, sometimes producers know that they've got a uh uh a really bum show and they open it on Broadway and for some reason it gets terrific notices and they always it's it gets fabulous reviews and they say now if only we can figure out a way to hush up the word of mouth.
And that's really the problem that's really uh the essence of the situation that Obama's in.
He's got a fabulous supportive media and and the only thing is how can he hush up the word of mouth?
And you say when when in other words when will the word of mouth get out.
Now if you take the economy, one in six American men do not have work.
One in six American men do not have work.
That's an extraordinary statistic.
And yet it's been lost.
It's been lost in the fact that this is now what are we heading into here?
The uh seventh in a row recovery summer or whatever it is that that's supposedly out there?
The econom the reality of the economy he's trumped that.
He and his media, he and his the the court eunuchs of the uh of the American media have trumped that have trumped that.
Now can they do it on on the uh on the Ob Obamacare thing.
Well so far they've had people have come along like this woman with the uh with the brain surgery who can't find a doctor uh under the new Obamacare plan.
Uh and and they have these stories and people say, well, you know uh yes she claimed that uh cancer had metastasized all the time that she couldn't because she lost her health coverage under Obama.
Cancer hasn't metastatized, she's just looking a bit skinnier than usual.
She's uh putting on a sweater that's two sizes uh too big.
These are all frauds paid for by the Koch brothers.
How many, how many of those stories can the media undermine?
How many of them there do they have to be hundreds, thousands, eventually over a million stories like that?
How many of them can they cover up?
Can they continue to hush up the word of mouth on the reality of Obamacare?
We'll talk about that and lots more when we return in just a moment.
Mark Stein in for us on the EIB network.
Let's go to Donna in Manasquan, New Jersey.
Donna great to have you with us on the show today Mark and it's an honor.
What I would like to add to the Obamacare catastrophe is the people that Obama says he's so concerned about are the ones being hurt the most.
In my family my sister, a self employed single mother of twins, uh lost her health coverage that she was thrilled with New Jersey blue cross blue cross blue shield, thrilled with it.
It it gave her an opportunity that if something horrible happened in her family's health she could take care of the problem because the insurance policy was properly like the marketplace properly dealt with it.
Now she she lost her insurance cover coverage.
Her son suddenly needed brain surgery.
He wasn't covered.
The uh she saddled with big bills, and uh uh the only policy available for her is like a non-insurance policy.
Twelve thousand dollars premium, you're still elig uh responsible for the first twelve thousand dollars of all future um health health uh expenses, and then after that, still another fifty percent of everything that accrues, you're still responsible for.
Right.
Bankrupt her and every other family like it.
So the insurance industry has been destroyed.
Right.
That's not insurance.
Uh 12,000 a year.
Tw you know, in most by the way, in most countries, you get private health insurance, so you don't have to pay twelve thousand a year.
In in this country now, health insurance, you have to pay twelve thousand a year before you get a dime of coverage.
Uh if you if you sign, if you agree to a health insurance uh coverage where you have a twelve thousand dollar deductible, uh, you're the one who needs brain surgery.
Uh again, it's this fifty percent, as you say, Donna, fifty percent, fifty percent uh uh costs of the uh whatever you call it, the copay, the copay.
So again, you're only insuring half of your health care needs for that twelve thousand dollar deductible anyway.
Uh and uh as you say, she ha your sister was perfectly happy, perfectly happy with her health care system until the government took it away from her.
And they're now all trumpeting.
All the media as part of the uh the lies of Obamacare are trumpeting it as a huge success because seven million people, which is two percent of the population, two percent of the population, signed up by the end of March.
Uh and in return, and and they think that's great news.
When uh obviously, uh as somebody somebody said this uh somebody sent me a tweet or something about this.
It's like saying if uh if you send a gang in to smash all the windows in town and then hail it as a great success because people are calling up and uh and buying lots of people are buying new windows to be installed.
They smash these people's health care coverage.
Uh the reality is that only two point one percent of Americans, uninsured Americans, have signed up for coverage under uh uninsured Americans have signed up for Obamacare coverage.
Obamacare was designed to correct the great moral blight of whatever it is, the thirty, forty, nobody knows the right answer.
Thirty, forty million people, whatever it is, who don't have health insurance in this.
They're not a fixed pool, by the way.
Some people have insurance one year, then uh don't have it the next and get again.
But th because of this pool, this moral blight, they said we've got to disrupt everybody's health insurance.
And at the end of it, at the end of it, uh the vast majority, something like eighty-five percent of the uninsured are still uninsured, and all they've done is wreck uh the health care of Donna's sister and Donna's nephew, uh who now uh are stuck with huge bills for something that was perfectly fine.
They had a plan, they liked it.
Now again, this is the dishonesty.
How many people like Donna's nephew are out there uh who are being stuck with crippling bills?
Or like the lady uh in New York, Mrs. Figaro, who can't uh see a brain uh uh surgery doctor, can't get in to see one.
How many people are like that?
And how many of those stories are the media prepared to hush up uh and uh how many of them are they prepared to put down in service of the lies of Obamacare?
