Anyone who's "speechless" that Obama would change Census Bureau questions to skew ObamaCare results is either ignorant or mentally incompetent

4/15/14, "Rothman: Yet Another Crazy Conservative Conspiracy Theory Proven Correct," MediaIte, Noah Rothman

"According to a report in The New York Times, the Census Bureau has been directed to change the wording of its questions relating to health care coverage so that they can no longer be checked against the past three decades of data. According to the nonpartisan analysts and census officials The Times spoke with, this change will make it nearly impossible to accurately assess the effects of the Affordable Care Act has had on the number of Americans who have health insurance. 

The changes will, however, likely have the effect of showing a reduction in the number of uninsured. This will not be the result of the effects of the law. Rather, according to the Census Bureau’s chief of the health statistics branch, the drop in uninsured is only going to be due to “the questions and how they are asked.”

Policy analysts and columnists, who are not reflexively friendly to conservative causes, called the debasement of a formerly neutral agency to achieve a political end insane” and “inexcusable.” And, thus, another crazy conservative conspiracy theory is proven to not be so crazy after all."

===============================

Comment: The notion of "conservative conspiracy theories" would never have existed if the Republican Party hadn't long since merged with far left democrats and worked for the extinction of conservatives. Anyone who is "speechless" or outraged by anything Obama does is either ignorant or mentally incompetent.
