Gallup: Michelle Obama Beats Hillary Clinton as ‘Most Admired’ Woman

Thats the reality.

 

And yet you say it to me, and not the lefty who brought it up.

Here's where we pretend artificial context matters.

 

Stop.

Thanks.

 

She was wrong even then.

We both know she's wrong now.

 

Her bulge is exactly her bulge?

In the anterior groin region?

I wear my avatars.

Why don't you wear yours?

 

Its not that amazing if you think about those women.

 

We're talking about Michelle, not Melania.

 

She needs something bro.

 

Democrats controlled both Houses and no Republican voted for it, so Obama settled with Pelosi and Reid.

WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS COMING, BESIDES EVERYONE WITH A BRAIN? It Sure Looks Like This Has Led to More People Dying: Under the health law, Medicare started penalizing hospitals for too many readmissions. Now mortality rates are up.

To determine whether a government program is successful, it’s often necessary to look not only at how well it does what it’s supposed to do, but what it’s doing that it isn’t supposed to. For example, killing people.

Take the hospital readmissions program built into healthcare reform. The program derived from a simple observation that hospitals were treating lots of people who would then return for more treatment within the month. "Unnecessary" readmissions cost Medicare an estimated $17.5 billion a year. If hospitals were treating people effectively, the thinking went, those people shouldn’t need to return so soon.

So the health law instituted a Medicare payment penalty for hospitals with too many readmissions for pneumonia, heart failure, and heart attack. Since 2012, Medicare has assessed about $2 billion in penalties on hospitals with too-high readmissions rates.

Hospital groups have argued that these payments are punitive and unfair, particularly to so-called safety net hospitals that serve the poorest, sickest patients. These patients tend to have higher readmissions rates, and the hospitals that treat them were more likely to be hit with payment reductions. (Earlier this year, the Trump administration changed the penalty structure for safety net hospitals.)

But the program has often been labeled a success because it accomplished its primary goal. Readmissions dropped between 2.3 and 3.6 percentage points for the conditions targeted. Readmissions associated with other maladies dropped by 1.4 percent. The authors of one 2016 study suggested that the lower readmission rates “point to how Medicare can improve the care that patients receive through innovative payment models.” It offered proof, and hope, that with the right incentives, Medicare could save money and provide better care.

A new study appears to dash that hope, at least as far as readmissions are concerned.

The study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and conducted by by researchers associated with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical and Harvard Medical School, looked at hospitalizations between 2005 and 2015. It found that “30-day post-discharge mortality”—the number of people who died within a month of leaving the hospital—increased for heart failure patients after the readmissions penalty program was implemented.​

Death Panels

 

LOL

Alex Jones? Get real.

 

She certainly would be an improvement on Hilary. Trump and Hilary would rank as the worse two candidates in the US

 

Maybe, maybe not. It's because they are two very nice people, sadly those qualities are lacking in most governments

 

How do you allow someone to tell your kids what to eat, that is on you.

 

That's all you've got. Step your game up.

You mean you wear your fantasy of what you wish you look like.

 

Moochele is a arrogant slob undeserving of any such title.

 

Can't stop the Haters from hating. This is a prime example of a beautiful black woman.

 

Absolutely. I think the Trump era will serve as an excellent reminder to thinking voters that 'not just anyone can be President'. To turn it into a popularity competition undermines the position and the country.

 

"bulges" Obama disagrees.

 

Sorry if someone else tells you what your kids can eat and can't and you listen that is on you slim.

 

Not seeing it.

 

Haters usually don't.

 

Certainly the worst since Kennedy-Nixon; that's 50+ years.

 

But that's all it's ever been; that's why they kiss babies & make false promises.

The difference with MO is that she's the real deal; a GENUINELY decent, highly competent, extraordinary individual.

Do we want an *experienced* monster like Clinton (or Harris, Bloomberg, Warren or any of the other potential Donk horror shows), or a highly intelligent, compassionate person who has been around politics and knows what's what.

To dismiss MO because she hasn't been jumped in by the political oligarchy & is *merely* a great person strikes me as unwise.

She's got the appeal of an outsider, and decades of knowledge as an insider; it's really kind of perfect.

Also, she is the ONLY Donk who can beat Trump.

 

I hope she does NOT run for President. She is a beautiful, intelligent woman. I believe she deserves the honor she is receiving. But I want her to serve the country in other ways, not in elective politics.
