17 Million "Uninsured" Go Missing: All Illegal Aliens?
By John W. Lillpop
ObamaCare has not even been voted on yet and already the Marxist scheme has reduced the number of "uninsured" among us from 47 million to 30 million.
A whopping thirty seven percent improvement in less than one month!
As reported at the Washington Examiner.com, in part:

"In his speech tonight, the president introduced a new number in the health care debate. Remember all those statements from Democrats, including Barack Obama himself, that 47 million Americans are without health insurance? That's no longer the operative number. "There are now more than thirty million American citizens who cannot get coverage," the president said in tonight's speech.
"But on August 10, at a town hall meeting, Obama referred to the "46, 47 million people without health insurance in our country…" And on July 23, he said, "This is not just about the 47 million Americans who don't have any health insurance at all…"
How to explain the difference?
There are, it seems, three viable alternatives:
1. 17 million "uninsured" have passed on since August 10, adding to the urgency of health care reform, or
2. That number have found jobs and are now covered thanks to the miraculous Obama Recovery, or
3. 17 million are illegal aliens, which Obama claims will not be covered under ObamaCare.
Which of the three makes most sense, given this administration's aversion to truth and transparency?
Best Bet: There are seventeen million illegal aliens in America, all of who would be covered under ObamaCare, at least until liberals pass their amnesty travesty, at which time they would no longer be illegal aliens!
Rep. Wilson of South Carolina had it exactly right when he yelled, "You Lie!" during Obama's speech Wednesday.
