If this is one of those 'fake hate letters' it's bad enough but if a bonafide gesture of bad will from some douchebag keeping it classy, well...bravo.



Michigan mom and leukemia patient Julie Boonstra already had her run-in with the tolerant Left. Boonstra, who filmed an ad about her struggles with Obamacare for Americans for Prosperity, was targeted by Michigan Rep. Gary Peters, who threatened to sue her into silence.


That wasn’t the end of the attacks, however. Slade O’Brien, southern regional director for AFP, shared this letter sent anonymously to Boostra.

Who knows if this letter is real, but obviously it is terrible.

On a separate note though, her ad is pretty bad, so I see why some people are mad(not that they should do this, but they should express their disagreement in the proper ways).

The ad makes it seem like she couldn't keep her doctor, which is not true. And while she couldn't keep her same plan, her new plan actually has premiums that are half as much as her old plan, and the law caps out of pocket expenses, putting her well ahead financially.

Harry Reid dismisses cancer patient Tom Coburn's Obamacare concern | WashingtonExaminer.com

"Nineteen of the cancer centers in this country, only five are covered under Obamacare," he told the Washington Examiner Tuesday, a data point he attributed to the low payments the Affordable Care Act provides for those treatments.

I am sure they can get their cancer treated at the local clinic on the cheap!

Some of those cancer center are just resorts that give chemo and rad treatments and shouldn't be covered. Who the f-cked needs a cucumber facial and wheatgrass enema after a hard morning of chemo?

"Obamacare", doesn't cover anything. The insurance companies do. As it has always been, standard insurance coverage doesn't cover treatment at all the best hospitals in the US. There are some crazy expensive hospitals down there.

When you dig deeper into that claim though, it isn't that 14 cancer centers in the US are not covered by any insurance company in the US now. It is that they did a survey of the insurance available in the exchanges in different states, and found that 14 of them were not covered by all insurance companies in all states".
