TWY,
....please explain just how you arrived at that number.......I doubt there was any actual INCREASE in those covered.......certainly less than one million.
Simple. I assumed that a fraction of the 7M who signed up for ObamaCare (a number that Obama himself is parading around as if it meant anything to his overinflated ego) actually didn't have insurance before or couldn't afford it for various reasons.

The rest, of course, were people who previously had privately-bought insurance but was later kicked off of their policies because, in the words of the libtards, those policies were "garbage."

By the way, I'm also assuming that the number of "young invincibles" signing up for ObamaCare is close to zero, despite a major publicity push by this administration to get them onboard.

One more thing. Obama is now bragging that 10M, not 7M, signed up for ObamaCare. Some attribute that last burst in sign-ups to the fear of the penalty for being uninsured. But there's still no word, other than from left-wing propaganda machines, on how many people in this "surge" actually didn't have insurance before.

In any case, with the way Obama is tossing the numbers out there and acting like "the debate is over," one should be very suspicious of what that means or how much that matters, especially when the same people were coming up with spin when it seemed they wouldn't reach their "goal" of 7M.
