I have to hand it to Jon Stewart for really going after Kathleen Sebelius over the unfairness in Obamacare that she and the Obama administration are perpetrating on the American people. He spent quite a bit of time asking her, over and over, that if businesses get a waiver from Obamacare for a year then why can’t individuals get the same. She made excuse after excuse, even citing that individuals don’t have to sign up for it if they don’t want it but they will have to pay a penalty. Stewart wasn’t buying any of it.
And even though his intentions for going after Obamacare were because he really believes in a single-payer system, which he made known in the 2nd half of the interview, he still did what I think Republicans have failed to do up to this point, and that is to clearly articulate the unfairness in how this administration is treating businesses and individuals under Obamacare. Sure Republicans said it back when they passed the bill, but they need to saturate the media with this argument over and over if they want the Democrats to cave on it.
But there’s one more reason I say Stewart proved it’s a winning argument. He actually accused Sebelius of lying at the very end of his show (after she had left) because he never heard what he felt was a valid reason why businesses get a waiver and individuals don’t.
