Disingenuous, to say the least

"Under this new law, all new private plans will provide basic preventive services — things like childhood immunizations and checkups, mammograms, colonoscopies, cervical screenings, and treatment for high blood pressure — absolutely free of charge. No copay. No deductible. No co-insurance needed."  (Emphasis ours)

- First Lady Michelle Obama, in an email sent to supporters last Sunday touting her husband Dear Leader's socialist healthcare Ponzi scheme.

Except we all know better, right?  Those poor saps on the other end of that missive have absolutely no idea how much all of that purportedly "free" stuff is going to ultimately end up costing them and everyone else.

"For moms like me, it makes our lives easier"

Because the purpose of government, in Mrs. Obama's apparent worldview, is to take control over every aspect of the peasants' lives in order to make things "easier" for them.  Nothing could be farther from the truth, dearie.  We can handle the details of our medical issues just fine on our own.

"Please visit HealthCare.gov and find out more about your care"

No thanks.  We'd sooner gouge our eyes out with rusty fishhooks than view Dear Leader's plan to stick his nose into our private health care matters.
