Over the past few months, I have been bombarded with hundreds of e-mails in opposition to the kind of health care reform favored by Obama and the liberal Democrats. However, I noticed that no one is more fervently opposed to the radical transformation that is being thrust upon us than my own trusted, usually mild-mannered insurance agent, Charles Jarai.

Medicare Revelations
I’m back.
Did you miss me?
My column has not appeared for the last eight weeks.
Life goes at a rapid pace but, for someone facing a major health crisis, the days are in slow motion. Under such circumstances one realizes how fragile life is.
My husband and I have sacrificed in order to buy the kind of medical insurance that allows us the flexibility to see the best doctor available. The Obama Administration would call that a Cadillac plan. For us it has been a necessity. For run of the mill medical problems any doctor will do, but there are times when you need an expert, the expert.

The AARP Tries to Fool Us, Again
Last week, the AARP gave Barack Obama his comeuppance by challenging a statement made by the president at a town hall meeting in Portsmouth, N.H.
It was a major embarrassment to the White House, and disingenuous. Continue reading “The AARP Tries to Fool Us, Again”
Seniors Divorce AARP (It’s harder than you think)
It was a marriage made in Heaven, or so it seemed, senior citizens and the AARP.
When you reach age 50, you get a letter from the AARP inviting you to join and offering discounts at thousands of businesses across America, and an opportunity to purchase insurance on almost everything at the AARP’s group rate, all for $16 per year.

Obamacare: Throw Mamma from the Train!
Obama is out pushing a health care reform bill he hasn’t read and guaranteeing that it will offer

HillaryCare: It’s Baaack!
Hillary Clinton wants to put a heath care chicken in every pot. You can buy it anywhere you want. It can be served in a variety of ways. Individuals with health problems and no health coverage (pre-existing conditions) will not be penalized with higher premiums. The best part of all, it will be affordable (virtually free).
All we have to do is repeal the Bush tax cuts.
Is that chicken frying, or do I smell a rat?
What is wrong with this picture? Continue reading “HillaryCare: It’s Baaack!”
