As he should, none of us are trolling Uf message boards.

You know though, I'd rather be here even if I wasn't a UT fan. I've seen how many people last on other boards and we tend to roll out the welcome mat for the most part.

To be honest, who would want to be on a UF message board? This is the only one I care to be on.

That's because we love UT. I couldn't imagine going on a another rivals message board and talking shlt . Maybe I'll sign up on a gator message board as LG and pretend to be an Obama worshipper and defend his every move.

Obamacare leaves Las Vegas man owing $407,000 in doctor bills | Las Vegas Review-Journal

Basich paid his first premium on Nov. 21, and within days the exchange withdrew the $160.77 payment from his money-market savings account. Because Basich paid a month before the Dec. 23 deadline, his coverage was to begin Jan. 1.

Basich and his insurance broker, Tamar Burch of Branch Benefits Consultants, said the issue appears to be confusion at the state exchange. Xerox’s system says Basich chose a plan from another insurer, Nevada Health CO-OP, even though Basich has paperwork that shows he selected MyHPNSilver1. In short, Xerox can’t seem to decide where Basich belongs, Burch said.

So the exchange is trying to compromise, putting Basich with Nevada Health CO-OP for January and February, when he incurred his bills, and with UnitedHealthcare from this month on. But CO-OP officials say Basich is not their member.

Nevada Health CO-OP CEO Tom Zumtobel told the exchange board on Feb. 27 that the nonprofit carrier spent seven days with Xerox determining Basich’s eligibility, only to find that Basich hadn’t chosen the group’s coverage.

“If he had picked our health plan, we would be advocating for a solution. But he didn’t pick us,” Zumtobel said. “We need someone on the board to advocate for him.”

Meanwhile, the exchange sent Basich premium invoices for January and February. He paid them both.

The midterms are looking rosy for the GOP because their base is motivated. This won't be an election about persuasion as much as turn out.

If you believe this you haven't been paying attention. The big shift is in Independents who've found Dems to be less acceptable than R's. This can easily change once Rs' are in office but this is about much more than base motivation - it's about poor stewardship

The person mentioned above, Basich, would've been better off if he had kept his plan & kept his doctor. Basich wouldn't have these problems if he had done so.

wouldn't surprise me and then he'd never get called out to prove it

I was a bit confused as to why Xerox is administering the exchange. When did they get into healthcare?

Probably has nothing to do with healthcare, but rather the administration of the website itself.

Group rips off Gadsden flag in pro-ObamaCare bumper sticker | Fox News

A President Obama-aligned group trying to drum up enrollment for ObamaCare is giving away bumper stickers that spoof the Gadsden flag -- a symbol informally adopted by the Tea Party movement and, for that reason, long derided by Democrats.

The stickers are a marketing ploy by Organizing for Action, an advocacy group which helped Obama win reelection in 2012. The stickers feature a doctor's stethoscope, instead of the coiled rattlesnake on the original golden-colored flag.

Would be funnier if it weren't such a serious matter

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/13/us/politics/no-plan-to-extend-health-care-enrollment-deadline-or-delay-mandate.html?_r=0

WASHINGTON — Kathleen Sebelius, the secretary of health and human services, said Wednesday that the Obama administration would not extend the deadline for people to sign up for health insurance or delay the requirement for most Americans to have coverage.

Obama administration will allow more time to enroll in health care on federal marketplace - The Washington Post

Combined with the honor system of claiming a hardship the administration has effectively gutted the individual mandate which they argued so strongly was essential to the program.

Under the new rules, people will be able to qualify for an extension by checking a blue box on HealthCare.gov to indicate that they tried to enroll before the deadline. This method will rely on an honor system; the government will not try to determine whether the person is telling the truth.
