There should be all sorts of clips out there from the 2008 Democratic primary campaign when Obama ran AGAINST the mandate and AGAINST any penalty.
First, Obama was against the mandate because he was against a penalty. Then he signed a confusing bill with a mandate and a tax penalty that the I.R.S. can kind of enforce if it really, really wants to ... maybe. Then he went to court saying it was commerce, not a tax. But the ruling said it was a tax. So now Obama is firing off frantic emails to his rich donors, begging for more money so he can lie as much in the 2012 campaign as he did in the 2008 campaign.
The Romnoids need to get after those old Obama clips from 2008, lying his @ss off about what he'd do on healthcare (or not do), if elected. Monumental, continental liar.
And yeah, guys, keep reminding us of all the Clintonopoulos-Blumenthal (Sid, Max "Beast" Blumenthal, that is) and their multiple, ramifying, anastomosing, haustorial interconnections with Obozo, the Clintons, and Frances Fox Piven and her Columbia Communists.
