Are Democrats Bailing On ObamaCare, Too?

Health Care: “I am not the first president to take up this cause, but I am determined to be the last.” That was President Obama in a speech before Congress back in Sept. 2009, pitching the health reform plan he’d sign six months later.

It doesn’t look like he’s going to get his wish.

Hell yes, the dems have abandoned Obamacare -- as did all our elected elites -- the first thing they all did after its passage was exempt themselves.

Don't trust chefs who won't eat their own cooking. Of course, it gets shoved down the throats of us commoners regardless.

The govt lawyers, bureaucrats, politicians have hijacked our healthcare, which turns out to be nothing short of a massive increase in welfare.

Of course.

"Obamacare" is what it always was - a wrecking ball to destroy what existed before March 2010.

"Democrats bailing" has always been part of the plan. It's a sign that final implosion followed by chaos followed by nationalization is near.

Yup. Next year look for them to bring back the Public Option as the solution. After a couple of years of failing to compete with it, the management of the remaining private insurers will negotiate their Golden Parachutes, and....BINGO, Single Payer!

After how the gubmint has totally botched O-care, I can’t fathom the public would support them entirely taking over the health care system, vis a vis single payer - at least not this year. But a sucker is born every minute.

I can. They are counting on sheer panic.

"OMG, my health insurance company just went out of business. And I only have 2 options on the exchange, and they are each double the price. I have a family and NEED to have health care. What do I do? WHAT DO I DO???"

Why do they call it “Single Payer?”

ANother clever naming by leftwingers.

Instead it should be 100% Socialist Govt Healthcare.

Same clever wording they use like “Diversity” “Affirmative Action...” etc.

Don't forget, he who pays is boss. "Single payer" means "single boss", and it won't be one of us peons.

The best part about this terrible law, passed unconstitutionally to boot. R's have now won D seats to the tune of:

14 US Senate seats

69 house seats

12 governor seats

910 state legislative seats

next up the Presidency!

And not a word from the Dem leaders that they have to do anything about it at all. No all they do is give advice to R's on how to win elections.

Hopefully those who supported Obama Care will be imprisoned by President Trump for fraud and RICO violations.
