In Reversal, Campaign Says Ted Cruz Does Have Health Insurance

[Zorro]

Ted Cruz has health insurance, and he had it all along, his campaign said Friday night, reversing what the presidential candidate said a day earlier.

Mr. Cruz told a Manchester, N.H., audience on Thursday that he was currently uninsured — which he said infuriated his wife –after Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas canceled many individual policies, including his. As a result, Mr. Cruz said he was now looking to buy a new plan at sharply higher premiums, a turn of events he attributed to the Affordable Care Act, also called Obamacare. Mr. Cruz has been a harsh critic of the health law.

But it turns out he was never uninsured. So why did he think he had lost coverage and didn’t have any currently?

Cruz spokeswoman Catherine Frazier said Friday that Mr. Cruz’s insurance broker had told him that he lost his health coverage when his Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas preferred provider organization, or PPO, policy terminated on Dec. 31.

What a good Christian liar.

1. At this point, I just assume anything a R says is a lie.

If they announce that they're a Christian, they remove any doubt that they're lying. They are. It's what Xians do.

4. He was also insured via Goldman Sachs through wife's employment. With several riders, insuring

all out of pocket costs covered. They can afford to be insured.

5. I have had more than on Craigs List

scam letter telling me they are God fearing Christian therefore it's an honest deal. Even the scammers in Nigeria know that certain population of Americans are so naïve that by using Jesus or God, they will believe them and send money to them.
