Obamacare doesn’t cover babies!

Fox News reported this terrible fact recently after Cornelius Kelly found that his new insurance through Obamacare covered all of his children except for his baby!baby

Kelly, a failed Tea Party candidate for the New York State Legislature, did what anyone in that situation would do: he contacted the insurance company, checked over his application paperwork, and did some research as to why this would be.

Ha ha! Just kidding. You might have missed the part where I said he was a Tea Party candidate. Instead, he went straight to The New York Post (owned by Fox News) to report this terrible aspect of Obamacare. (Apparently, of the tens of thousands who have so far signed up for Obamacare, not one had babies and therefore this loophole was previously unknown. That was me being sarcastic.)

Fox, being the ever-vigilant heroes of journalism that they are (Oop! Sorry, almost threw up in my mouth there), reported the story. After all, since they are “fair and balanced” there is no need for investigation. They report — you decide. (They never claim their reporting is accurate or true. That’s for us to decide.)

Turns out ol’ Cornelius’ baby wasn’t covered because — I know, this will be hard to imagine — he forgot to put the baby on the form. Completely forgot. Named his other kids, forgot the baby.

He got some great publicity out of it, but he didn’t do much to help the image of the “stupid party.”
