Obama is doing is bad for the country and of course, ignoring the immense damage that you're ideologically driven party has caused.

Your own articles are the clue to what I'm telling you and I'll demonstrate:

The first article from Yahoo is released by whom? "The U.S. hospital and drug industries".
We're supposed to listen to Big Pharma and the Hospital industries and we should believe them why? All of their interest lies in fleecing us out of every penny we have.

"Lobbyists vowed to fight proposals for Medicare, which covers the elderly, that are aimed at saving $135 billion on prescriptions by requiring drugmakers to provide steeper rebates similar to those for Medicaid, which covers the poor."

That's the key word here, "Lobbyist" and that means these industries after making record breaking profits and laying off workers to bolster an already bulging bottom line, are going to try to line their pockets yet again with our blood at the expense of our health. And of course all of this is supported by the Republican Party.

The second article from KENS 5 has nothing to do with what Pres. Obama is doing and actually is a result of a destroyed economy from the Bush Administration including unpaid wars, tax cuts for the rich(which has never in the history of this country produced a surplus or bolstered our economy) unprecedented deregulation and a squandered budget surplus given to him by Pres. Clinton.

From the article:" Carrier said the tough decision is sparked by two things, overwhelming state budget cuts and an overall bad economy."

And who cut the state budget? Yep, Republican Governor Rick Perry

“Hospitals nationwide are seeing a decrease in their volumes, primarily economy related,” said Carrier. “People either don’t have insurance anymore, or are afraid to talk off for work in fear of losing their job.”

And why do people not have insurance anymore? Because the insurance industry is trying to deny coverage, cut corners and fight the Affordable Care Act because they will only make a good profit and not an obscene money grab at the expense of Americans and their health.
Who is fighting to keep us from getting good coverage? Here is the Republican plan for healthcare:
