Did you know that Obamacare was conceived by the conservative think tank the Heritage Foundation in 1987? It became one of the focal points of Newt Gingrich’s alternative to Hillarycare back in 1994. It was the foundation of Romneycare in Mass. It was a republican idea until Mr. Obama said that he thought it was a good idea too.Then suddenly, it was a bad idea.
It’s interesting to compare the ACA with Medicare Part D. Part D, the GOP program, was a huge, completely unpaid-for and inefficient system that gave vast sums of taxpayer money to private insurers and pharmaceutical companies and banned the government from negotiating discounts. But when it passed and became law, the Democrats worked to fix the parts that were broken and did the best they could. The ACA was a Republican idea, completely paid for, that saves tens of thousands of lives and a lot of money. But the GOP has voted to repeal it 37 times and chortles with glee every time it hits a bump. Will they cooperate to close a loophole that makes it impossible for churches to take part? Of course not! It’s a train wreck!
How many rounds have the cons gotten into trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act? You’d think they’d figure it out by now that they’re gonna get knocked the f* out again!
‘Wait until November when you renew your 2014 Health Care benefits and see that you will pay Double the premium, over what you paid in 2013, This is a 100% Increase over what you paid in 2013.’-That’s right, there were never any cost increases to health care before Obama. -Per Mitch McConnell, the United States health care system is the best in the world and needs no changes.

Let’s replace Romneycare with something like single payer — the REAL preference of Obama, contrary to the nitwits who claim otherwise.

Tiger will you at least say “oops” when you find health insurance premiums don’t double in 2014?

NBC didn’t report jack since you NEVER post a link to any of your claims. Fixed News on the other hand…
