Once Obama Care is gone, whats left of Hope and Change except high Unemployment and mind-boggling debt?

Now, there’s a campaign line for the GOP if I ever heard one!!!
Obama is a Marxist loser in a land of freedom. Carville is just telling us the spin. Obama has nothing. He is a complete failure.
Why? To show the nation they’re incompetent at writing laws?
Or that partisanship is more important than country?
BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since polls show that 2 out of every 3 Americans want Obama”care” ABOLISHED, the RINO party could show a seldom seen flash of brilliance and refuse to “Replace” the Hydra formerly called Obama”care.”
The Left has been at their Holy Grail for more than 80 years. There not like Cubs fans, they will be demoralized. The independents will be just fine with a smack down. Conservatives will be energized. Nothing succeeds like success. Remember, this time, the Left is on defense, and no matter the verdict, they cannot score.
If the Left loses, there will be a lot of finger pointing. Just think how it will look when a Dem Senator tries to defend their unconstitutional vote.
I'm not so sure. I'm afraid if the court kicks this back it will motivate the dem base. We'll get 24-7 discussions on the cost of health care in the media. The "masses" as 'bam regards them, will grow increasingly nervous about their health insurance in a lousy economy. This is potentially the political 'perfect storm' for Republicans.
Bottom line: the Republicans had better put together a health care plan to present in its place. And they better put it in simple, 4th grade level terms that will be attractive.
They need to do this tonight.
For once I will agree with serpent head. Obamacare is polling bad, so having it gone would be a positive for d’rats.
That is true
Yawn. How Clintonian. Car-vile is like the proverbial cat skidding on its ass on the linoleum floor and smacking up against the wall and falling flat on its face, that then gets up, looks around and says, "I meant to do that."
Yeah, sure you did.
Why didn’t Congress just expand the Medicare program and its taxes? Even though it is already broke and dysfunctional, anyone employed has to pay into it.
The problem with the voting public is that half gets free handouts and the other half pays for it.
Majority rules, could be a problem.
If Obamacare in its entirety was tossed by the USSC then the Democrats would be able to claim they had done their best to help the common man, only to be thwarted by the "conservative" leaning USSC. They also wouldn't have any political risk when Obamacare measures kicked in and killed the job market.
I think what will happen instead is that the mandate will get thrown out, but the rest will remain with nothing to pay for it. This will be really bad for Democrats. They will lose a critical revenue stream for the bill with no way to make it up. The cost of the program will explode along with the corresponding federal deficits.
We will all be hosed, but the Dems will have a tough time shedding the blame.
Since that's never gonna happen, I'll settle for 5-4.
If he thinks that can save 0’s sorry butt, he’s delusional
New Black Panther’s voting scandal that Holder *refused* to act on
Fast & Furious- crickets for the Border Patrol agent *murdered*
Solyndra & countless others
drilling moratorium, Keystone pipeline, loan guarantees for foreign oil cos
$5 a gallon gas & now coal getting squeezed
shovel ready, cash for tossing out perfectly good cars (Volt=Epic Fail)
STILL no jobs
Bertha Butt’s endless & lavish vacations
Even the kossacks know he’s going down (& some of them even say it)
I hope the door hits them both in the a** REALLY hard.
TFB.
I don't think they want to go there. The right could make a compelling argument that if Obama has the chance to get another vote for his power grabs, there is no END to what he could foist on the American people. THAT should be bone-chilling to the voters.
The GOP-TP solution to healthcare is simple and I am serious about this:
1. Minimize government involvement in healthcare including Medicare and Medicaid and by that meaning give rationed scaled voucher amounts to seniors and poor and let them spend their alloted amounts on health providers that they choose. Give them access to counselors to prioritize their healthcare dollars appropriately but make them responsible for getting the most for their allotment.
2. Promote Retainer Fee Medicine where healthcare providers get their relationships back with their patients and kick the government out. Require that providers obtain actuarial certification of their health dollar allotment pool and regulate how they must allocate it to stay solvent, in other words make providers accountable to patients that invest their health allotment in them.
3. Regulate providers to require that Retainer Fee practitioners purchase reinsurance for specialist care or otherwise provide access to their patient accounts for specialty care (e.g. endocrinologist, cardiologist etc.)
Now it may seem like a lot of regulation but it’s not. It’s no more of a burden than requiring a licensed contractor to be bonded and insured according to state law. It will create new opportunities for private certified health actuaries but I view that as a good thing. Healthcare actuarial grade financing is too important to leave to overworked providers who don’t have the skills and training to run their practice profitably.
The USSC decision, one way or another, does nothing to address gas prices, nothing to address our bond ratings, nothing to address the immediate deficit, nothing to change the fact that this socialist machine has increased our national debt by $5T in 3 years. Unemployment is sky high, employers are not hiring in large numbers in large part because of Obamacare.
The parasites who support Obama will riot over this, over Trayvon, over contraception, over unions held in check in Wisconsin, over whatever they want to protest. They produce nothing of any value. Still, it is very possible that Obama will win reelection. Killing Obamacare is critical, but there are so mnay problems our beloved country faces.
Can Romney lead us back to the right path? I am underwhelmed by that possibility. I really have doubts that Romney can win, much less lead us back to the right path. This whole Supreme Court situation is very scary if Obama can win again. Scalia and Kennedy are getting old. Obama is so, so close to finally bringing this country down.
The problem is that the government will decide what all the doctors and hospitals accepting those vouchers can and can’t do. Same as it always was.
