An inside source reveals the secret behind ObamaCare's big success, described in the upcoming documentary This is Obama Tap.

FROM THE TRANSCRIPT:

Mike Moore: "Wow! Look at this. All this machinery. So this is where the magic happens. This is where ObamaCare gets made."

Kathleen Sebelius: "Yes. Let me show you this. You see our dials? These are ObamaCare dials. We had them made just for ObamaCare. Nobody else has dials like this. The private market doesn't have dials like this. See that?"

MM: "Umm... All the dials go up to 'Affordable.'"

KS: "That's right! ObamaCare dials go from '1' all the way up to 'Affordable.' Everyone else has dials that go from '1' to '10.' Obamacare dials go all the way up to affordable."

MM: "Ummm... But..."

KS: "So when someone needs health insurance we dial it up to affordable. That's how we keep costs down for everyone. ObamaCare dials go all the up to affordable."

MM: "But ObamaCare uses the highest setting. I don't understand how that's affordable."

KS: "It's affordable because when the dials are all set to 'Affordable' the person doesn't pay the actual price! Most of their insurance gets paid for by the government. People with incomes up to 400% of the poverty level get tax credits to pay for their ObamaCare! And then there's all the people with special wavers and other privileges."

MM: "In light of all the externalities of ObamaCare, how it kills jobs because employers can't have full time workers so they have to reduce their employees to part time work, and it robs people that can't get special political privileges, like the self-employed, so they have to pay astronomical prices for their insurance under ObamaCare, and then there's the terrible price to personal liberty. Saying as you do that the price of insurance has become affordable because the government is now picking up the tab and your machine figures out the price a person pays based on what is obviously just political considerations is really insulting. ObamaCare just dials the price all the way up. Ultimately, that cost has to be paid by someone. How do you explain that?"

KS: [long pause] "ObamaCare dials go all the up to affordable."

Hmmmm. Does the "Level of Care Dial" move in sync with the "Affordable Dial"?

Coming soon: car speedometers that go all the way up to Fast Enough.

This is an obvious and clumsy fabrication by a right wing infiltrator, because Michael Moore would never say anything like this. Ever.

A quote from the Obamamentary - "It's like, how much more affordable could this be? And the answer is none - none more affordable." - Nigel Biden

And who could forget - "Dozens of Obamacare patients spontaneously combust every year. It's just not really widely reported." - David St. Axelrod

Are bizarre gardening accidents covered? What about choking on someone else's vomit?

Obamacare: if millionaire celebrities can afford us, why can't you?

Obamacare is wonderful, and it has already started to CREATE jobs! Now that MDs are leaving their practices in droves and retreating to the nearest golf course, the health care marketplace is being flooded with new entries - naturopaths, herbalists, witch doctors, faith healers and light-and-energy workers! My veterinarian has expanded too - he offers a "one for a man, two for a horse" prescription drug program for all pet owners who have lost their primary care MD. Obamacare really IS the "fundamental change" to Amerika that Obama promised.
