Re “What Really Happened on Bass/Obama Day at West L.A. College”

One of several intentionally distracting, barnyard-level anomalies that U.S. Rep. Karen Bass pulled off at her farcical Sunday afternoon Obamacare sign-up program, the Seduction of the Unsuspecting, was the odd appearance of Mike Davis, a City of Los Angeles Public Works commissioner.

Why was he there?

Maybe Ms. Bass’s junior therapist was busy?

Mr. Davis delivered an irrelevant stemwinder that should have been saved for an evacuated warehouse in an abandoned country after midnight.

Perhaps Ms. Bass owed him a debt, and this was payback?

Possibly he was bored watching Sunday afternoon pro football?

Or he needed to practice his public speaking? 

Likely all of those.

After hearing Mr. Davis, even a dead microphone would have been an improvement, and then Ms. Bass and her fellow connivers went into Act One of the Slaughter of the Innocents, inducing sweet, well-meaning, trusting but vaguely informed persons to fall for a stunt that millions of Americans are jeering, Obamacare.

Ms. Bass even had college students dress in pretty white coats to look the part of real doctors, just as President Obama did on Dressup Day in the Rose Garden before Obamacare blew up in his well-tended face.

Even liberal hardliners, other than Ms. Bass and her predecessor, the mercifully retired Diane Watson, are openly booing the nonsensical, not to mention ruinous, aspects of the new, all-encompassing healthcare law.

Ms. Bass, no candidate for the intellectual Hall of Fame, brought in two slick-tongued medical professions, medicine men selling their wares from the back of a covered wagon, advocates of Obamacare to mesmerize 450 true believers.

Using a single White House-approved hymnal, the boys sang loudly and cheerfully of the unbounded, unimpeded joys that will emanate allover the floor from Obamacare, once the heavily scorned law wrapped around the generous, irrefutably naive bosoms of the true believers.

It was painful to watch.

There were 450 truly needy neighbors being treated as if they were incredibly fortunate lottery winners.

Out of 330 million Americans who knew better, these lucky 450 alone were the only ones on the planet who knew the heavenly secret – that Obamacare is a blessed miracle destined to transform their daily drudgery into a golden paradise that President Obama calls “Washington on earth.” And the President never lies, does he, unless the subject is politics?
