Neil Cavuto On Obamacare. Gives Middle Finger To Obama

Oct 11, 2013, 6:13 PM

Enjoy life. This is NOT a rehearsal!

Obama is blaming Fox News for 2/3 of the country disliking Obamacare.
Here's Neal Cavuto's explanation and it is great. If you don't understand
what is bad about ObamaCare please read his comments and you will understand.

Mr. President, Fox News isn't what's making Americans sick about your
healthcare law. Your healthcare law is. Welcome, everybody, I'm Neil Cavuto.
And excuse this departure from form. But I think this is just poor form.
So, it's time we set some things straight.

Mr. President, we at Fox News are not the problem. I hate to break it to
you, sir. You are. Your words are. Your promises are. We didn't sell
this healthcare law. Sir, you did. Remember this?

President Barack Obama: If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep
your doctor. Period.

Mr. President, tell that to tens of thousands of retirees at IBM and Time
Warner and dozens of others, who've been dumped from their coverage and
told to find their own coverage. Fox News didn't break that news to them, Mr.
President. Their companies did.

Fox News didn't push more of those firms to hire part-time workers. Your
healthcare law did. Fox News didn't incentivize fast food restaurants to
scale back their benefits. Your healthcare law did. Fox News didn't make
doctors want to opt out. Your healthcare law did. Fox News didn't make
insurance premiums sky rocket. Your healthcare law did. Just like Fox News
didn't grant hundreds of exemptions to companies that needed them. You
did. And Fox News didn't delay one key provision after another, including
online enrollment for those small business exchanges. You did.

Just like it wasn't Fox News that said we had to pass this to see what was
in this. You did. Or was that Nancy Pelosi? Sometimes I'm confused.
But of this I am not. Fox News didn't re-do basic math. Sir, you did. Fox
News didn't say you can cover 30 million more Americans and not see a hit
in premiums. You did. Fox News didn't say you could throw in those with
pre-existing conditions and not have to pay for it. You did. Fox News
didn't all but say you could get something for nothing. You did. Fox News
didn't come back years later and say, oh yea, we did raise some taxes. You
did.

Here's where you are right about Fox News, however, Mr. President. We can
do math. And did. You cannot. And did not. We said it, and proved it.
You didn't. And we're all suffering for it. Take it from the numbers
guy at Fox. Numbers don't lie. The number of Americans working part-time
and nervous. The number of retirees days away from being dumped on exchanges
and anxious. The number of company bosses with any news to pass along on
those exchanges, but still clueless. The number of doctors who want out.
The number of congressmen now opting out. No, Mr. President, none of those
numbers lie.

But with all due respect sir, I can only conclude you do know; I know, I
know you hate us at Fox. But please take a look in a mirror, and fast. You
think we're the skunk at your picnic. But that doesn't mean we're the
ones that stink. Because that smell isn't coming from the folks reporting on
your law. Mr. President, that smell is your law.

How long into this process can we declare this experiment either a success or a failure?

Clearly right NOW it's failing. The system doesn't work and quite honestly, no one in America knows what the heck is going on. Horrendous planning and horrendous communication. Really unprecedented in how poorly this has been executed. BUT...that's just execution. The answer will come in a few years when those who want to sign up have signed up, and we've seen the impact to everyone's healthcare premiums, everyone's level of care, everyone's taxes, the federal budget deficit, corruption, etc.. How long do you think before this "normalizes" and we can see the impact? Because until then this whole thing has a "Global Warming" feel to it...both sides finding an article here or there that supports them and screaming it from the rooftops as fact.

So how far into the future? Next year? Five years?

As an opponent, I think some of the pain will be felt quickly but the true damage won't be realized until at least five years from now. And by then I believe it will be too late to fix.
