So Long As You Ignore The Problems, Obamacare Is Perfect

By Barbwire, Jun. 10, 2015

President Barack Obama at the G7 Summit this week, while arguing against an ongoing Supreme Court case, claimed his first term healthcare overhaul has no problems whatsoever.

“What’s more, the thing is working,” the president declared. “I mean, part of what’s bizarre about this whole thing is we haven’t had a lot of conversation about the horrors of Obamacare because none of them come to pass.”

The Supreme Court case, King v. Burwell, is part of a series of lawsuits which argue that Obamacare was written so that only individuals in states with their own exchanges could get tax credits. Plaintiffs in the case argue that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) can’t provide tax credits for individuals in states that opted-out of setting up their own healthcare exchanges.

Nevertheless, Obama took time during his speech not to discuss the actual language being disputed but to argue the benefits of Obamacare.

Why Is Barack Obama Drinking Beer At 11am?

Angela Merkel welcomed Barack Obama to the G7 summit with a traditional Bavarian breakfast on Sunday – complete with a half-litre of beer.

President Obama had just flown across the Atlantic to meet Mrs Merkel, David Cameron and the other G7 leaders at an exclusive spa resort in the Alps.

But before he could get down to business, Mrs Merkel treated him to a full Bavarian breakfast of white sausages, pretzels and foaming lager.

Eleven in the morning might be considered a little early for a beer in some parts of the world, but in Bavaria breakfast is not complete without a weissbier, as the local wheat beer is called.

It’s not quite as hard-drinking as it sounds: Bavarians don’t down a quick pint before heading to the office every morning.
