A 56-year-old woman who lost Medicaid eligibility when her children left home says: "Health reform isn't perfect, it's only a first step, but by God it will make a difference to me." A 62-year-old man covered under his wife's policy "is confident the greater changes are all for the good." A 22-year-old male is relieved he'll continue to be carried on his parent's health insurance when he goes to art school. If not for ObamaCare, "I would have either taken the risk and opted out or looked for work instead of going further in school." A 40-year-old- freelance writer confides that he is "was "'thrilled' to see the health care overhaul signed into law."
Quoted several times in the article is Anthony Wright, executive director of Health Access California. Remarkably, he likes ObamaCare, too. Tribune newshounds make no mention of his background, which just possibly could color his views:
A consumer advocate and community organizer. Wright has been widely quoted in local and national media on a range of issues. He has also worked for New Jersey Citizen Action, the Center for Media Education, The Nation magazine, and in Vice President Gore's office in the White House.
You'd think that if the Tribune looked really, really hard, it may have found someone - anyone - who's not enthused about what Obama and his Democratic minions have done to the health care system. Instead, like many other mainstream media outlets, it's hopped aboard Obama's campaign to portray the disaster as a success.
