President Obama and his team denounce the outcry over the mess that is Obamacare on the grounds the number of people that are covered by their own personal non-employer, non-government health policies and who may lose those policies and have to pay significantly higher premiums for policies with higher deductibles is "only 5%" of the population.
Do you know that 5% of the population is more than the total combined population of everyone living in:
PHILADELPHIA
PHOENIX
SAN ANTONIO
DALLAS
INDIANAPOLIS
SAN FRANCISCO
DETROIT
MEMPHIS
BOSTON
SEATTLE
DENVER
NASHVILLE
BALTIMORE
LOUISVILLE
PORTLAND
OKLAHOMA CITY
MILWAUKEE
SACRAMENTO
KANSAS CITY
SALT LAKE CITY
Oh, is that all it is?
Foolish me to think that 5% is a large enough number to warrant our concern...and that "only 5%" doesn't do them justice.
I guess it's just another Hillary moment: "So what difference does it really make?"
