Zogby Report Card: Obama needs support, not GOP mockery, on health care 'fix'
Washington Examiner ^ | November 15, 2013 | Paul Bedard

Posted on 11/16/2013 10:53:49 AM PST by gusopol3

Mr. Obama took ownership and said he would fix the cancellation problem – giving the Democrats some cover. As for me, I don’t doubt for a moment that the nation will survive if some Democrats lose in 2014 because they worked to fix the law. Anyone remember when some politicians were courageous?

“And, to the Republicans, the Constitution mandates Congress to make policy, not gloat and mock. Obamacare is after all a program originated under Republican former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney that is being implemented by an African-American president that they love to hate. I will wait to see if the kinks are indeed fixed before I pass final judgment. Meanwhile it would sure be nice to get some creative ideas for fixing those problems from both sides."

They can’t blame bush for Obamacare so they blame Romney?

Perhaps one could say Obamacare was “modeled” on Romneycare (I’m not sure how accurate that would be) but you certainly cannot say it was “started” by Gov. Romney, who btw, had been out of office out long before Obama got elected?

Liberalism truly is a mental disease, including delusional and dissociative thinking.

Obamacare is not Romenycare though they are cut from the same cloth. The GOP did not and has never advocated at a national health plan like Obamacare. The left continuing to try to tie GOP to it needs to be rebuffed strongely. The response to Zogby should be ‘Sir you know that is just a lie. Not one Republican in Congress helped craft nor voted for Obamacare and its not their responsibility to fix it.’

Does Zogby consider mockery from the democrats to be support?

Obama’s receiving mockery from the Dems too.

When you have a president whose response to overtures to discussions on future legislation is “I won” then you get mockery when the legislation is ill-conceived, poorly implemented with mendacity thrown in for good measure.

When a politician becomes a regular target of mockery, they lose all power.

Nice of Zogby to bring up the race card again. The fact that Obama is 1/2 African American or whatever that means, has nothing to do with why we should support him or not. I do not, nor ever have, supported Obama, because I disagree with his political philosophy, oppose his policies, and, in general, and am disturbed by his past associations, etc.
I am sick and tired of liberals claiming that race has anything to do with it. All this race-baiting does is encourage the very bigotry that is purports to decry.

"This may sound crass and I apologize if it does but, would it have been reasonable to expect the Jews to help the nazis fix the showers?"

Some did and you could analogize to some members of the GOPe and the left.

He didn’t take ownership of shit except to blame it on the Republicans and the insurance companies. He isn’t and hasn’t been working hard on this - far from it. Golfing is his ‘work’. To suggest he earnestly ever cared about the mechanics of his America-destroying projects is absurd. He only cares about the final result.

Zogby is a steaming pile, but Bedard picked him up by the clean end.

Come on, now. It’s Zogby, after all. I Dim shill from Day One.

Zogby carries his Obama knee pads with great pride and affection.

Well, in part, they did in a way. At least some of them. They were called capos. Prisoner trustees that were detailed for all the messy work: cleaning out ovens, emptying the shower rooms and stacking & burying details. I’m sure there were some that cleaned out the drop tubes to the showers where they Zyklon-B was dispensed.

As for me, I don’t doubt for a moment that the nation will survive if some Democrats lose in 2014 because they worked to fix the law.

I believe our nation has a much better chance of surviving if a LOT of Democrats lose in 2014.

“And, to the Republicans, the Constitution mandates Congress to make policy, not gloat and mock.

The Constitution mandates a LOT of things that have been ignored by both sides. The Federalist Papers point out that the government we have is constructed to balance out conflicting interests. A direct outgrowth of those conflicts is undoubtedly gloating and mocking. And, hey - the Democrats NEVER gloat and mock. Ever.

Obamacare is after all a program originated under Republican former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney that is being implemented by an African-American president that they love to hate.

And Oracle has been called in to fix it in Massachusetts before it dies there, as well.

Meanwhile it would sure be nice to get some creative ideas for fixing those problems from both sides."

The Democrats have done their best, mostly out of panic, and their best, as usual, is pathetic.

I genuinely think these @$$holes are painted in a corner with explosive, non-drying paint. I am enjoying their suffering more than I can express.
