"We will keep this promise to the American people. If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what." President Barack Obama, touting the Affordable Care Act in a June 15, 2009, speech.

Cause his mouth was open?
It would never have passed otherwise.
As soon as the treasonous bass turds on Capitol Hill pass “immigration reform”, the commie ‘RATS will have 50 million Mexican Nationals to indulge in the “shopping experience” at the BIG Gubmit Marketplace.

So, poor little Eric thinks it is good because it came from his messiah.
Never underestimate the stupidity that now prevails in the new USSA.
"Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we are going to have to change our traditions, our history.
We're going to have to move into a different place as a nation to provide the kind of future we all want desperately for our children."
Michelle Obama
