GOP attempts at sabotaging Obamacare and depriving millions of access to affordable health coverage continues on a daily basis. These fuckers have the audacity to claim that Obamacare is a failure because not more people have been covered. We’ve seen the tweets from Price about how 28 million are still uncovered, as though that’s Obamacare’s fault when the blame resides almost entirely on a GOP that refused to expand Medicaid in states like Texas (which continues to have the highest uninsured rate in the nation) and where they refused to do anything that might make coverage or the markets more secure.

Every fucking day the GOP attempts to undermine the function of Obamacare, and the direct result of this is higher costs to millions of people, including their own constituents who the GOP lies to daily about the consequences of their actions, and what Obamacare actually is and does.

Sebelius was on two different shows on CNN last week explaining how the GOP has purposely sabotaged the ACA, especially since January. I’m no fan of insurance companies, but no company in its right mind would make any kind of commitments in this carefully constructed chaos.
