Big Government -- this time Warner Todd Huston:
VP Biden Says Obama Plans to �Control Insurance Companies�
The indispensable Jake Tapper of ABC News took an interview with Vice President Joe �Foot in Mouth� Biden that contains a nugget of information that tends to prove that Barack Obama intends to destroy America�s insurance industry and place it under the full control of the federal government.
Tapper asked VP Biden what he�d been hearing from the members of the Democrat Congress that are vulnerable over this healthcare debate and Biden�s reply let slip the administrations ultimate goal; full government control of the insurance industry. (My bold)BIDEN: Well, I yes. Some of them I say they say, well, Joe, look, man, I mean, you know, you guys haven�t massaged this very well. And, you know, this thing has gone on so long, I don�t know. And my response is, hey, man, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. I�m telling you, you know, pre-existing, they�re going to be covered. You know we�re going to control the insurance companies.
Granted Joe Biden is the court jester of the Obama Administration. He is a fool of the highest order. It would be easy to dismiss his words. However, the idea that Obama wants to take full federal control of the insurance industry fits quite nicely with Obama�s claims as a candidate � that he was for a single payer plan all along.
Barack Obama fully intends to destroy the health insurance industry and replace it with a socialist nationalized healthcare program.
Color me surprised -- at least it is out in the open now although the stampede of the mainstream media to cover this is:
