RECONCILING CLAIMS
RECONCILING SEEMINGLY CONTRARY CLAIMS ABOUT FIGHTING OBAMACARE.
By David Ferguson
A few Arkansas candidates who voted for the “private option” as state legislators are making the following seemingly contradictory claims: (1) I fought against Obamacare and Medicaid expansion; and (2) I support the “private option” which has nothing to do with Obamacare Medicaid expansion. Critics of these claims say the candidates are using political double speak to avoid a backlash from their base, which is made up primarily of people who do not like anything about Obamacare or government expansion.
