Despite heart-breaking stories of critically ill patients being denied treatments under Obamacare, President Obama steadfastly refuses to offer any relief “until the GOP changes its attitude.”
“Those who are suffering need to know that I stand ready to fix all their problems as soon as the Republicans cease their criticism of the Affordable Care Act and get behind the effort to implement it nationwide,” the President said. “The Republicans are harping on the theme that these people are suffering because provisions in the ACA caused their previous insurance to be canceled. Well, I can abolish those provisions, but the price is GOP acquiescence in the permanence of this law.”
“Republican contentions that the 7 million we signed up for policies under the ACA is only a tiny fraction of the nation’s 300 million population is irrelevant,” the President continued. “The new signees may represent less than 3% of the population, but I, as their President, represent 100% of the population. And I say that the law is here to stay. As soon as the GOP comes to terms with this reality everyone can partake of its benefits.”
Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), a physician, labeled the President’s attitude “cruel and sadistic. It is his law that has bumped people off of insurance that would’ve covered their ailments. It is his law that is boosting the cost of medical care for everyone. For him to say that he will alleviate the consequences on the condition that all resistance to his tyranny cease is extortion, plain and simple.”

Another good one, John. Happy Easter.
Now if the Republicans can say the same about Amnesty, we are looking at a LANDSLIDE in November.
All the Republicans have to do is SIT BACK AND WAIT.
But, apparently, that is too much to ask for Boener and ESPECIALLY Cantor - as they are hell-bent on making a deal with the Dems this year, and demoralizing the hell out of the Tea Party. They are literally AFRAID of winning big this year.
GEEEZ; talk about some huge egos that not only need, but are begging to be slapped down.
Why is Bambi tough on the GOP and is like a lapdog when dealing with Putin?
Socialist paradise is blocked by lackeys and counter-revolutionaries.
Can't have it both ways, First Moron.
You created it, you rammed it down our throats.

What's to fix?
