    You almost got the last panel right, except the hope is that once more and more people on the left realize what a disaster O-care really is, that sanity will prevail and the vote will swing in favor or repealling.

    Panel 4: Change “Sanity” to “Futility”.

    Or perhaps, just perhaps, real sanity will prevail, and possibly enough Republican Moderates and Democrat Moderates will be elected in 2014 to form a compromise and vote through real health care reform in the manner of the rest of the industrialized world. The current health care law could be easily modified to do this.


    Of course, this would mean placing the actual welfare of the American people ahead of the incredibly wealthy health insurance industry, and I do not know if that would even be possible, let alone doable, but one can indeed at least hope and pray it would be. And it might be very well impossible with certain highly acrimonious elements now in Congress!!

    The GOP have presented no ideas on healthcare, other than Obamacare itself. Now that they’ve decided that their idea is an attack on freedom, all they’ve got is “continue to let sick Americans die in poverty.” The American people aren’t with you on this one, guys. They love every element of Obamacare, except that Republican voters can be convinced that they don’t like the “Obama” part. Once it starts working, it will be impossible to repeal without having a plan in place that improves on it.

    “They love every element of Obamacare,”

    I don’t know where you are getting your information, ARodney, but there are a bunch of polls out there that contradict that in a big way.

    “…the hope is that once more and more people on the left realize what a disaster O-care really is…”

    I keep seeing these grand pronouncements on how disastrous “Obamacare” will be, yet I never see anyone say what specifically will cause disaster. Please enlighten us. Give one specific example of how it will be so disastrous.

    Example: Don’t just give the generic “our rates will double” mantra. Tell us how “Obamacare” will cause the rates to double. Tell us how it will have any effect other than it had when Republican Mitt Romney instituted it in MA.

    The real problem was letting Ronnie get Scalia onto the Supreme Court. The usurpers on the court have detroyed the public interest interpretation of the Constitution and replaced it with a theocratic fascist spin. Profits will rule over people as long as those evil trolls remain as primary interpreters of our founding documents.

    The previous health system was failing exponentially. When the most needy people are routinely denied coverage, they will either stay home and die, or they will present to the emergency room for “free” care, which is far more costly. How hard is it to understand that meds for diabetes are cheaper than amputations, dialysis, and the other consequences of poor treatment?

    Obamacare is a band-aid, which will fail in the future as well. But we cannot go back to the previous system and expect it to work, or for it to save us money. We must replace Obamacare with Single Payer. It is the eventual answer, and the only question is how long it will take for the brain-deads in Congress to understand that.

    I don’t have a problem with changing our system. Voting to scuttle it, especially 3 dozen times, is a waste of our tax dollars. It’s time to expect actual work to come out of Congress. We pay them way too much to allow them to continue to cost us more by doing nothing about anything.

    You are the biggest liar! The American people do NOT “love every element of Obamacare”. The thing is costing us over $1000.00 more this year, and God knows what the cost will be next year. It is horrible for people on Medicare, which we are. Need to get rid of it!
