In most polls, a majority of Americans say they oppose “Obamacare.” But a number of recent polls suggest that many of those same people are more supportive of the Affordable Care Act. There’s just one problem: They’re the same thing.
A recent CNBC poll found 46 percent of respondents said they are opposed to Obamacare. But only 37 percent of the same people taking part in the poll say they oppose the Affordable Care Act.

All Legislature should only be reffered to by HR ### or SB ###.
This idea of naming bills to manipulate emotions should be all the reason for another “Liberty Amendment”
If “OBAMACARE SUBSIDY HEALTH INSURANCE TAX,” aka OSHIT, is so popular, then why isn’t Mr. Michelle Obama enrolled?
This is enrollment day number TWO, Barry: tick-tock - - -
It only applies to human Dr.s not vets.
Sadly, great example of low-information voters.
So are MORONS and IDIOTS and the problem is that we allow them to vote in this Country. Those are the one polled and that's how we got a commie in the white hut.
So....people oppose Obama by name even more than the idea of socialized medicine?
THAT has gotta be driving our Narcissist In Chief right over the edge!
"Absolutely. Yes."
Good. Go find me one.
These bumbling, blithering idiots show why it is suicidal for a democratic republic to not have each vote of its citizens be associated with a weight factor that matches their contribution in taxes.

I’ve heard O call it Obamacare.
Didn’t Obama just recently say that a large number of those against Obama Care is because they say it doesn’t ‘do enough’?
I sometimes think that the low information voter types are more common than not but I have an old high school friend who’s son worked for the Tonight Show.

My friend said that they sometimes had to work all day to find enough stupid answers to fill their slot for that segment. Most people weren’t nearly stupid enough to get a laugh.
Who would be opposed to something "Affordable"?
They should really be asked if they think that "affordable" is a $8,000 deductible.
Ping for later
