Yes, he is proud of it, there was a thread her the other day where he was critiquing Obama’s plan and would refer to his own and what it had “accomplished”

I owned a business too and pragmatism has always worked for me, but there are certain core concepts that are absolute that should determine ones decisions or at least play a role in the process. Doing something that should strike you as wrong just to “try” it out is at the very least a bad idea, and in most cases a sign of incompetence.

I have made this point before. I read the original concept of Mitt's plan at Heritage before it even got into play in the real world, and like many others knew that while it had good salient points it also betrayed very basic fundamental principles in regards to Government's role. Many also knew it would never arrive in the real world looking anything like what it did in the lab, compounding the problems.

Mitt did it anyways.

So is he profoundly incompetent or is he fully aware and simply willing to toss out what should be core principles?

Certainly a man as savvy as Romney should have known that the left would corrupt the already problematic plan into something ghastly. If he did know this he is an accomplice to the entire farce, if he did not, his political acumen is questionable to say the least.

There are far more issues that can be raised by Romenycare then simply it being a slightly better from of Socialized Medicine.

Yep. He should have known what the libs would turn it into. I’m not excusing that. If nothing else its a good lesson for what will happen on the national level.

Just curious. What do you think of Bush? (Amnesty, Wallstreet and auto bailouts)
