Weve known for a few weeks now that conservative groups are attempting to sabotage Obamacare by planning and staging campaigns to dissuade young people and families from enrolling in state insurance exchanges. Via Greg Sargent, these efforts include a new radio spot from the conservative group Americans for Prosperity, and the good news is that in addition to being heartless and cruel, its also incredibly stupid. Two years ago, my son Caleb began having seizures
if we cant pick our own doctor, how do I know my family is going to get the care they need?
Set aside for a moment that the one factual claim about the law in that quote we cant pick our own doctor is false, and will be false until the president of Kaiser Permanente hypnotizes all of Washington and persuades Congress to ban PPOs. Set aside too that the single most well known and well liked provision of the Affordable Care Act is the one banning insurance companies from discriminating against people with preexisting conditions. Thats the reason Caleb will never have to worry about being locked out of coverage for the rest of his life.
