Obamacare: Barack Obama asked Blue Cross to hide its enrollment numbers
One of the questions which has been asked by members of the media to various officials within the Obama regime is, how many people have actually been able to enroll in the healthcare exchange?
Not one single person who was asked this question was either willing–or able–to answer that question and now we may know why.
It is being reported in this story that the most open and honest administration in the history of the United States contacted Blue Cross Blue Shield in North Dakota and asked them not to release the abysmal numbers:
The Obama administration asked North Dakota’s largest health insurer not to publicize how many people have signed up for health insurance through a new online exchange, a company official says.
During a Monday forum in Fargo for people interested in signing up for coverage via the exchange, James Nichol of Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota told the crowd his company received the request from the federal government earlier Monday. Nichol is a consumer sales manager for the company.
We can easily assume, and actually rest assured, that if one insurance company in one state received such a request that most insurance companies in most states also received the same request for it would make no sense, or gain the Obama regime a single thing, to simply ask one company in one state to cover up its numbers.
This is not surprising because lie, deny, and cover-up is the first reaction the Obama regime has to any potential scandal as we saw with Fast and Furious, Solargate, Benghazi, the IRS, the NSA, and now with Obamacare.
This of course is coming from the same regime which tried to shake down ally Bob Beckel for having the gall to state that perhaps the individual mandate should be postponed. And, of course, this is not the first time the Obama regime has gone after the media for opposing his agenda, who could forget that he actually collected the phone records from the media in an attempt at intimidating them?
What is this if it is not a Stalinist approach at attempting to control the message and disseminate only the information he wants made accessible to the public?

That is the only transparency the Obama regime believes in!

I wonder if the numbers for obamacare are considered top secret by those in the administration and therefore classified. This will be a mess that’s impossible to cover up like Benghazi, fast and furious, and IRS. Quite frankly, I’m enjoying this train wreck, but feel sorry for those who will see their health insurance rates soar as a result.

I am enjoying this as well, while I feel bad for those who didn’t vote for Obama who are being hurt by this those that did vote for him are getting exactly what they deserve.

I wonder what is going on inside Val Jarrett’s head. Did no one tell her that this thing was a bust. Did they and she not tell Zero??

I think they all knew what was going on and they decided they would rather deal with the problems after it was rolled out than give the Republicans a victory even though they knew the Republicans were right.

Thanks for the link, Steve.
I believe you are right on target here. The Obama administration is very adept at controlling the message they want to send. That much should be evident from their past dealings with the media. It should also be clear that they have no qualms at how they control that message.

You are welcome Larry. When I googled the issue yours was one of the first posts. That is a perfect example of how Obama is able to control the message. When bloggers’ posts on an issue show up before MSM articles on any issue it shows us what the MSM is not willing to cover.
