What a shock, another Obama lie.

Obama:"There are also those who claim that our reform effort will insure illegal immigrants," Obama said. "This, too, is false — the reforms I’m proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally."

"No temas si eres indocumentado/a y quieres inscribir a tu familia en un seguro medico"

Translates to: Don't be afraid if you're undocumented / to and want sign your family in a health insurance

period.

The only people that trust him now are the wretchedly ignorant and his faithful followers for whom he can do no wrong. But, they're still in the majority.

I'll never forget the look on Pelosi's face when Rep. Joe Wilson spoke the truth. But in her defense, she didn't and probably still doesn't know what's in the legislation she voted for. She was told how to vote and she did so. Party loyalty and all that.

So the website says the information would be used to verify eligibility for the program, including verification of the immigration status of applicants, and that's recruiting illegals?

That somehow means they will be covered now?

Do you guys not stop to think these things through at all?

Lol.

The contempt of the conservative media for their audience comes through yet again.

Illegal immigrants cannot buy health insurance through the marketplaces and they cannot receive subsidies. It doesn't mean that they can't apply for health insurance for their legal-status children. That's why it says not to be afraid if you want to enroll your FAMILY in health insurance.

How many times do you guys need to be tricked by dishonest ultra right wing sources before you realize that they are playing you for fools?

May as well offer it to them, its not like they would be turned away from a hospital. Again the goal is to get people to pay for insurance not walk into a hospital when its needed and skip the bill.

Their life in the bubble prevents them from seeing it.

I think many of you are mistaken by indicating Illegals can acquire health insurance under Obama Care.

The kids born in the US are citizens even if their parents are here illegally. The kids are entitled to coverage.

I think it is worded correctly in the Act to support what Obama has said..... in this case.

This is the correct answer. The Breitbart article is, at best, wrong and at worst, purposely misleading.

Why would an illegal alien apply for medical coverage they have to pay for when they can just walk into an emergency room and get it free?

The truth is inconsequential to outrage addicts. It's that riled up feeling of superiority, indignation, & self righteous rage that they crave. Breitbart delivers, every time, feeds their delusions while inhibiting their intellects. It's the basis for all right wing agitprop.

That article about the website "mr conservative" hit it pretty perfectly. People will believe anything. What is sad is that people have found a way to monetize tricking the rubes.

They wouldn't. At least not Obamacare stuff. They are not eligible. They will continue to go to the ER.

But, if they have kids that are citizens there are a few reasons to cover the kids.

Oh and by the way, the fact that this article was a transparent lie will in no way change their opinion of Breitbart.
