So, Romney, This is Your Spokesman and 'Special Adviser' on ACA {?}

Last night on the PBS News Hour they held a discussion on the Affordable Care Act between Gov. Martin O'Malley of Maryland and the Romney campaigns 'Special Adviser' Tevi Troy. As I watch my jaw dropped, surprised I still have one not to mention my forehead after this past decade especially, when it came to this 'special adviser' and the easily now flowing parroted fox type talking points started flowing from him.

Here's abit of information on this Tevi Troy:

Tevi David Troy (born March, 1967) is the former Deputy Secretary of United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in the administration of George W. Bush.

Personal history

Troy is the son of Elaine Troy and Bernard Dov Troy (retired "executive director of the Jewish Educators' Assembly in Manhattan") of Queens Village, New York and a brother of Gil Troy.[1] He is an Orthodox Jew[2] and "a member of the Kemp Mill Synagogue," in Silver Spring, Maryland, where he lives with his wife, Kami (née Pliskow) and their four children.[3][4]

Why is the above information, especially below the link, important about this 'Special Adviser' and spokesperson on especially ACA, well this:

Health care in Israel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Health care in Israel is universal and participation in a medical insurance plan is compulsory. Health care coverage is administered by a small number of organizations, with funding from the government. All Israeli citizens are entitled to the same Uniform Benefits Package, regardless of which organization they are a member of, and treatment under this package is funded for all citizens regardless of their financial means. Generally, health care in Israel is of high-quality and is delivered in an efficient and effective manner. Partly as a result of this, at an overall 82 years, Israelis enjoy the fourth-longest life expectancy in the world as of 2012.

Note: We give allot of help, financially, to Israel as an alie, there's more to that help then just weapons and defense, so I wonder how much goes towards paying for the Israeli peoples Health Care.

Here's the discussion:

AIR DATE: June 29, 2012 Has the Health Care Ruling Upped the Ante for Election Contenders?

SUMMARY
Ray Suarez talks to Democratic Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley and Romney campaign adviser Tevi Troy about how the election campaigns will use the Supreme Court's decision to uphold the Obama administration's health care law. Transcript

This is how this 'Special Adviser' opens up his end of the discussion after the Governor does a pretty good job on his end and led it off:

RAY SUAREZ: For the other side, we're joined by Tevi Troy, a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute and a special adviser to Gov. Mitt Romney's presidential campaign.

What's your reaction to what Gov. O'Malley had to say?

TEVI TROY, Hudson Institute: Well, first of all, thanks for having me. And it's great to sea my home state governor, Gov. O'Malley, on screen.

I do have some issues with what he had to say, especially this notion that it is a communications problem, that they haven't communicated enough. The problem is not the communication strategy about the Affordable Care Act. The problem is the policies of the Affordable Care Act.

It is a tax-hiker. It will cost jobs. It will not bend the cost curve down. It doesn't cover everybody. It creates an IPAB which gets between an individuals and their doctors. There are so many problems. And that is why the American people have been rebelling against it.

And goes downhill from there with more of the now lets repeat over and over rovian truth making.

So apparently the long running Health Care in Israel has been doing exactly what this 'Special Adviser' just spoke about, why then haven't they changed it if it's so bad, could it be that it works so well they sit at the fourth-longest life expectancy in the World, according to the Wikipedia clip above, how about that it shows their citizens are healthier and not passing on illnesses etc.to others so the folks tend to live longer, healthier workplaces which saves money, healthier gatherings together, healthier kids and on and on.

Lets look at just one point mentioned above that it will cost jobs, you mean that Israel, because of their now long Health Care standards for the country, not to mention all the others besides us, has maintained that at the costs of employment, not so fast there 'Special Adviser':

Israel's unemployment rate drops to 32-year low

Despite global economic troubles, unemployment averaged 5.6% of the adult workforce in 2011.

Which begs the question after the years of coverage under Romney Care in MA and especially these past years with the economic collapse that happened because of Wall Street and our to big to fail Banking system after the some thirty years of reagan capitalism and little to no trickle down economic growth investments from the top tier earners who's wealth has only grown by leaps and bounds, how is that States unemployment doing.

For Immediate Release: June 14, 2012: MAY UNEMPLOYMENT DROPS TO 6.0% MASSACHUSETTS JOBS INCREASE BY 7,500, doesn't seem to be hurting that states economy none as they continue to regrow after the money hoarders brought them down to.

As to Maryland's because O'Malley was on and what he says on his end about Maryland:

Maryland Businesses Continue to Create Jobs Amid Tough Recovery Climate

U.S. Chamber of Commerce names Maryland as #1 for Entrepreneurship and Innovation Maryland's private-sector businesses create 34,900 jobs over the past year

BALTIMORE, MD (June 15, 2012) - The U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics released state jobs and employment data earlier today. According to the preliminary data, Maryland shed 7,500 jobs in May. After creating 35,600 net new jobs over the past 12 months, today, 30,800 more Marylanders are working than were at this time last year. Despite setbacks these last two months, for 24 straight months, monthly job growth has been higher than the previous year's.

Last month, the preliminary jobs estimate for the March-April period showed a drop of 6,000 jobs. The number has been revised to 5,400. Maryland's unemployment rate rose modestly from 6.7 to 6.8 percent, but continues to be among the lowest in the country and nearly 20 percent below the national rate.

Now for the adventurous you can visit the state figures, jobs mean economic growth, on those coming out already, same parroted talking points, against ACA or demanding they won't participate, and look see as to how their unemployment and other economic figures look like. Especially the so called red states who's representatives, like for the U.S. congress ran on a 'job creator' platform in the last election and continue to do so in this coming election, oh till this happened and now they are real happy they have another distraction to feed their flocks rather then try and talk about job and economic growth under an extremely failed ideology of capitalism.

Here's some helpful information links to pass along if you hadn't already.

29 June 2012 - The Supreme Court released its decision on the health care law, National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius.
