“You know who one of those millions of Americans who’s lost their health care because of Obamacare? That would be me. I don’t have health care right now. I had purchased an individual policy and Blue Cross Blue Shield canceled all their individual policies in the state of Texas effective December 31st. So our health care got canceled.” Sen. Ted Cruz (TP-Texas).
A very moving story, that is if it wasn’t completely fabricated. The whole tale smelled from the beginning. You don’t lose your health care with a single letter. Moreover, if true, then Cruz is a moron for not securing another plan from the many choices. More importantly, it was pure bullshit as a part of Cruz’s agenda to destroy the American healthcare system. The Cruz campaign had to quickly fess up and throw Ted’s insurance broker under the bus. Cruz was automatically enrolled in another plan by his provider. Since the Affordable Care Act is actually working, Cruz has to lie and make up stuff to paint a picture of failure.
