Obobo Care not doing well

Obamacare’s secret numbers are leaking out, and they’re looking very red.
Seven states and the District of Columbia have released age data, showing that only one-in-five, or 22 percent, of their new signs-ups are the much-desired, profit-generating younger people, dubbed “young invincibles,” according to a calculation by Reuters.
That 22 percent is barely half the 38 percent target sought by the administration.
Without enough young healthy people paying extra dollars into the system, the nation’s insurance companies will bleed red as they pay for the many older and sicker people who have rushed to sign up for the government-directed insurance.
In turn, the companies will ask the White House for a huge financial bailout, which will likely be unpopular, especially among likely voters.
The companies will also be under intense pressure to spike their requests for 2015 price increases during the 2014 summer.
Either eventuality will drop a political anvil on Democrats and President Barack Obama in the run-up to the 2014 midterm elections.
But the bailout may not be as expensive as feared because fewer than expected people have signed up for Obamacare.

Pelosi - We hafta pass it so you can see what's in it!
Obama - I hafta to lie about it so it will pass.
Doctors - When you pass it, we'll send it out to the lab to have
it analyzed.
Lab technicians- What the he11 is this crap???!!!
Carney: Hey, keep your chin up! You may be among the lucky 20% who
will be able to enroll AFTER it's fixed!
IT tech: WHAT fixed? It isn't even finished being BUILT yet!!!
Sebelius: It's working fine!
Peasant: I'm enrolled! YAY! What do you mean I'm not? The
system said I was ???
Scammers: This Affordable ID Theft Act is GREAT!!!
Obama: If you like your identity, you can keep it. PERIOD!
Lib spin: Ya, I know he said you could keep your plan, but why
would you want a SUB-STANDARD plan? I mean, it doesn't cover free
contraceptives, sex-changes, maternity care for women beyond
child-bearing (to cover their adult sons who get a girl pregnant -
no, not kidding, Obamacare seriously does include this!),
pre-existing conditions, and lots of other things you don't want
or need! Besides, it's the insurance companies' fault your plan
got cancelled! Sure we designed the system to force them to
cancel it, but what does THAT have to do with anything?
More Lib spin: Ya, we know he said you could keep your doctor but
how did we know that the new plans would have to save money by
limiting network access, and that doctors would quit and retire
rather than be dragged into this no-win fiasco? It's the doctors'
fault!
The good news: There will be an average annual savings of $2500 in
your insurance premiums! Huh? Aw, come on now! Even a broken
clock is right twice a day! And lemme guess, it's the insurance
companies again, right?
Who me? Obama: "I didn't say nuffin bout no co-pays or
deductibles. Ya cain't pin dat one on me sucka! It's dem
wascally wapublicans what hates women and homosexuals and wantsta
poison the air and make grandma eat dog food (ifn dey don't toss
her off da cliff in her wheelchair) and dey wants scool chillen ta
starve and have no books ta read an stuff like at!"
Cashier: "Please pay your premium, sir! No, there's no $2500
savings. What'r'you, stupid or something? Where did you hear
something idiotic like that?"
The bottom line: It's all Bush's fault!!! No, really it is!
Hey, quick, look over there!

Obozo Comedy, that's about the best definition of this whole debacle that I've read to date. Yet, the Liberals fail to see the comedy, as well as the truth intertwined in such writings. Somehow, they're devoid of understanding reality.
