At his news conference today, Mr. Romney joked about his problems with politicians who are mocking the FUHCA:
“I know that the Tea Party has united with the Occuopy movement to call FUHCA Rmoneycare. It is easy to make fun of me because I have worked hard to make some money, depute being the son of a Mexican immigrant! Like my efforts in Bain Capital, however, this health bill lifts everyone, every American! “.
Following these comments, Secretary of Heath and Human Services, Rick Perry read the following to the press corps.
As a Tea Party member myself, I want to assure my fellow patriots that the FUHCA was enacted for their benefit. As one example, the changes we made in Obama’s ACA reflected the scandals arising from the revelations in the Guardian that the provisions of the Affordable Health Care Act would not prevent the NSA from investigation of individual health care records. FUHCA also corrects the antireligous intent of the prvious government and ensures that you all will continue ti get the best health care you can afford!”
