Dr. Seussilitis Does The SCOTUS Blog (Again)

Yesterday the Justices heard arguments about

Language putting subsidies for health care in some doubt

For states that don't have a health care system of their own,

Because local politicians say they won't condone

Health care that's affordable. (They think it's Socialist.)

Thus they've launched another last ditch effort to resist

Implementing ACA by gutting subsidies;

Which leaves millions who can't pay their high insurance fees.

We won't know 'til June which way the Court is gonna rule...

If they'll strip away Obamacare's most vital tool.

I sure wish Republicans spent even half the time

Fixing health care as they've spent on making it a crime.

FOX - The Spin Zone

President Obama gave an interview to FOX;

Spoke with Bill O'Reilly (who's as subtle as an ox)

Or, at least, he tried to...  When O'Reilly let him speak;

Tried to treat the President like guests he has each week.

Bill demanded heads should roll: Sebelius and Rice - 

Health Care and Benghazi - interrupted more than twice

When Obama tried to answer accusations made...

Couldn't call them questions - that's not how this game is played.

People who tune in to FOX believe they're getting news,

Never realizing it's just Roger Ailes's views.

If the facts do not support the things that Roger feels

FOX invents conspiracies; it's how they earn their meals.

President Obama is their favorite boogeyman.

They've convinced their audience he's got a secret plan;

He's a closet Communist or Muslim - take your pick.

So, they keep on slinging mud in hopes something will stick.

When he'd finally had enough, Obama looked at Bill;

Said he knew they don't agree on things and never will.

Pointed out that, since FOX keeps ignoring all the facts,

He is not surprised at how their audience reacts.

Healthcare.gov Review

(Mr. Noth's cartoon is courtesy of The New Yorker)

Healthcare website's up and running; I'd give it a B.

'though it's doing better, it's not working perfectly.

You can browse your options; you can even buy a plan.

It's now running smoother than the system ever ran.

If you're a consumer, you'll be happy with the site

But, if you insure consumers, it's not working right.

Information they're receiving from Healthcare dot gov

Isn't always accurate...  When push comes down to shove

People may believe they're covered when, in fact, they're not...

And there are still millions who will lose the plans they've got.

Owners of small businesses are also out of luck.

Still, that's an improvement; it does not completely suck.

The ACA - Well, This Sucks.

Good intentions pave the road to hell - or, so we're told -

And, despite the best of them, Obama oversold

Benefits of A.C.A. for millions who now find

They can't keep their health care plans and so they're in a bind.

Hard to make excuses for the mess this has become,

'though I am more sympathetic to this cause than some.

Website's still a nightmare and the phone lines have been jammed.

Roll-out of Obamacare's a voyage of the damned.

G.O.P. feels vindicated; "See! We told you so."

Frankly, I am sick of this whole dog and pony show.

Maybe if they'd tried to help to fix the "f...ing" thing

Their concern for us would have a more authentic ring.

A Bitter Pill to Swallow

On news-stands now

Need your yearly dose of outrage? Read TIME magazine.

It's the best reporting on health care I've ever seen;

Written by a brilliant journalist named Steven Brill.

(Caution: You may need a doctor after Bitter Pill.)

Article dissects the items on some patients' bills.

What is compensation to our doctors for their skills?

What things cost a hospital and, then, how much they charge...

Profit margin turns out to be staggeringly large.

Pricing not related to an economic cost

Charged when you are sick and scared and feeling rather lost;

Caught up in the system, doing what the doctors say,

Last thing on your mind is any bills you'll have to pay.

Don't think I can recommend this article enough

Even though my stomach churned digesting all this stuff;

Veins are throbbing, head is sore from reading TIME's report...

If I have a heart attack I'll see those guys in court.

(P.S.  Dear Time;

I am only kidding folks; I'm not the suing kind;

But your recent article has really blown my mind.)

A Communique from the Feminazi Camp

Excerpted from an Article first published as Dear Rush; a Communique From the Feminazi Camp on Technorati.

Usually Rush Limbaugh is a person I ignore.
Health declined a lot when I was listening before.
I could feel blood pressure climb and watch my I.Q. shrink.
Pretty sure that he's the reason I began to drink.

Now I'm flabbergasted at the things that he's just said.
When I heard him on his show I'm sure my ears both bled.
First he called Ms. Fluke a slut... Then said he'd like to watch.
Yuck! I'll need to wash that image from my brain with Scotch.

Now I hear that Limbaugh has attempted to explain;
Claims the Liberal Media is after him again.
Really? I don't understand what makes men like him tick.
All I know is, once again, Rush Limbaugh's made me sick...
