Another Winger Disses ObamaCare



Oh, my bad (again!): that's "Lee Stranahan, an uninsured father and Huffington Post blogger, who supported President Obama, made calls and worked to elected President Obama."

That's gonna leave a mark.

I would also like to point out that, at about 1:45, then-candidate Obama adds another lie to his repertoire:

"...Sen McCain would pay for his plan, in part, by taxing your healthcare benefits for the first time in history." [emphasis added]

Anyone with even a limited knowledge of American history knows that this is not true: that tax-advantaged, employer-based health insurance plans were a result of wage freezes during WWII. Even today, most folks on individual plans must pay for their health insurance with after-tax dollars.
