Here are some FACTS from a group that specializes in FACTS... PolitiFact:
Quoted Text
Boehner said the Affordable Care Act so far has caused "a net loss of people with health insurance." Boehner's logic is based on reports that about 5 million had their insurance policies canceled while 4.2 million signed up for policies on the state and federal marketplaces. It's bad math for two reasons.
First, most of the people who lost their insurance have seen those policies extended to them through an administrative fix, or they received new coverage through their previous insurer or they bought a new plan.
Second, he ignores the millions of people who bought coverage off the exchange, those who gained coverage through Medicaid and the under-26 crowd able to remain on their parents' insurance.
We don't yet know how many new Americans will ultimately gain coverage. But every indicator right now suggests it will be a net gain. We rate Boehner's statement False.

Politifact has no idea either, but like you the 'indicator' is "The White House says..."
How many illegal changes have been made now again?

Amazing how many Right Wingers will spend so much energy to keep Americans from having Health Care.
It's the same old Rabid Right "I got mine, screw everyone else"!

Ahhh....Those sweet, sweet words.
It does my heart good to see you utter these words of surrender, that all you have left is the name calling.
Sucks that you don't have any real numbers to back up anything you say.
Do you even remember the reasoning behind getting the ACA passed, Boxy?

Real numbers??? 6 MILLION REAL ENOUGH FOR YOU?
The number is somewhere over 6 million with a few days to go that may add many more. REAL NUMBERS will be counted once the enrollment is complete, unless you think that it's somehow important to count the numbers before the enrollment period ends???
We are still waiting for a link containing REAL NUMBERS from Shadow's post:
6 million people lost their health care and 6 million signed up for ACA a net gain of 0.
The REPUBLICAN "6 million people who lost their health care" is about as factual as G Worst Bush's "Iraq WMD'S".

Definition of a Republican: “Someone who can't enjoy a meal unless they know that someone else is starving.” The same appears to be true of ObamaCare: "A Republican can't enjoy their Health Care unless they know that someone else has none"

Amazing how lefties suddenly want Americans to boost corporate insurance profits.
The "LEFTIES" wanted "single payer" (or a blend of single payer and private corp.) It's the Right that forced us to insure through profit making corporations.
I still have hope that single payer will be the next step in ObamaCare.

[Madison, Wisc...] More than 5.6 million individuals and families across the country have had their health insurance policies cancelled because they are not in compliance with the regulations of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) according to a new report by the Liberty Foundation.
In a report released on Friday, the Liberty Foundation found that the President's promise, "If you like your health insurance, you can keep it," was false. California and New Jersey residents were hit the hardest, with one million and 800,000 cancellation notices respectively. Post 1285 Box
OK Box, out of your 6 million how many signed up for Medicaid, How many were previously uninsured, how many signed up because they lost their health care due to Obamacare, how many have really paid for their plans and just visited the site????

So just WHO is Shadow's source? Who is it that Shadow believes, while he refuses to believe the MSM, or the US President?
"The Liberty Foundation". Sounds very patriotic. What is their goal? Do they possibly have a Right Wing Bias?
Lets ask them... from their site: "As we move forward in the spirit of federalism, the power of the states over the federal government must be unleashed to achieve our common goals."
LOL! They are about as 'fair and balanced' as FoxSnooze!

After the lies that were told to us by this administration your total belief in everything they say does not make your statements anymore credible.
So far, everyone, even the president has only "ESTIMATES". No one has the exact data... yet you believe the Far Right view and post falsehoods as if they were facts.
FactCheck.Org doesn't represent any political view... I'll stick with their opinion until the actual data is known.

Only democrats voted for the ACA. They could have passed single payer, they had the votes. "Righties" couldn't have stopped it.
