Rep. Hank Johnson may be a complete idiot, but Diane DeGette from Denver is in the running for chief Congressional moron.
Colorado Woman Who Championed Obamacare Loses Insurance Plan
The Colorado Division of Insurance says 250,000 people in Colorado alone have lost their policies in the last few months.
Cathy Wagner says she isn’t political and has never written a lawmaker, much less the president, but with Obamacare she felt compelled. “I really just wanted him to know …I was so hopeful that this plan was going to move us forward, but in fact I think it’s moving us backward,” Wagner said.
Wagner and her husband retired early. She was a nurse for 35 years and championed Obamacare, until she received a letter from her insurance company saying it was canceling her policy.
“I was really shocked … all of my hopes were sort of dashed,” Wagner said. “’Oh my gosh President Obama, this is not what we hoped for, it’s not what we were told.’ “
She was shocked further to learn that for the same coverage she would pay 35 percent more and have a higher deductible.
“Our premium for next year is going up to over $1,000 a month for two of us and we’re two fairly healthy individuals,” Wagner said.
“This is yet the most recent issue,” said U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Colorado.
DeGette sits on the committee that oversees Obamacare. She insists the Wagners are the exception, not the rule.
250,000 Coloradans is the exception?
“As we work through all of this I think that a year from now people overall are going to be very, very happy with the way the Affordable Care Act is working,” DeGette said.

Very, very happy? 150 years ago, she would have been tarred and feathered and run out of town. Last year she wanted to ban high capacity rifle magazines, because they would all run out of “bullets” eventually and become useless.
Asked why banning ammunition magazines that hold more than 15 rounds would be effective in reducing gun violence, DeGette responded:
“These are ammunition, they’re bullets, so the people who have those now, they’re going to shoot them, so if you ban them in the future, the number of these high-capacity magazines is going to decrease dramatically over time because the bullets will have been shot and there won’t be any more available.”
Inaccurate remarks on gun magazines put Rep. Diana DeGette under scrutiny – The Denver Post
DeGette is truely representative of her constituents.
😆
So a year from now, she will be happy that she is paying 35% more with a higher deductible?? That’s what it sounds like or maybe she thinks hers will be changed. Wonder if she has checked on her doctor to see if he/she will still be available.
At least maybe all those mags will be shot up by then.
Former MSNBC host and rabid democrat gets an awakening:

I bought a catastrophic health policy for $170/mo when I left MSNBC. Obamacare cancelled the policy. New rate $600/mo. Thnx Mr. President!
According to the Daily Caller, 3,400 have enrolled so far through Obamacare in Colorado.

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving libtard. You reap what you sew.
You get screwed if you are responsible, don’t smoke, don’t party, eat healthy food, exercise, get regular sleep and in general try to take care of yourself.
“Very, very happy? 150 years ago, she would have been tarred and feathered and run out of town. Last year she wanted to ban high capacity rifle magazines, because they would all run out of “bullets” eventually and become useless.”
Yes and 300 ago, she should have been burned like witch.
Mrs. Cathy Wagner simply does not realize that her new health care plan is much better than her old one. It pays for any abortion or birth control that either she or her husband may need!
