"The truth will out . . . " on Obamacare

It's about time for the tide to turn and for the truth to begin to seep out about Obamacare.

Former Senator Scott Brown, contemplating a run for the senate from his vacation home in New Hampshire (having bombed out in his native Massachusetts), was on the campaign trail in N.H. over the weekend, railing against the "monstrosity" that is Obamacare.

He said this while making a call in the home of a Republican state representative, Herb Richardson.  But Richardson spoke up and told Brown that the new health care law had been a financial lifesaver for him and his wife.

Richardsaon was injured on his job and dependent on workers' compensation payments.  He received about $2,000 a month -- but his health insurance under the COBRA plan cost $1,100 a month.

The Richardsons now pay $136 a month to cover them both.   "Thank God for Obamacare, chimed in Mrs. Richardson.

Senator Brown listened but reportedly said nothing further about it.

PS:   Enrollment has now reached the level (over 5 million) where officials say that the program will be sustainable.
