Deutsch's Fear: Failed Obamacare Will Set Big Government Back 'For A Generation'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/19/2013 6:48:42 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

After my animated description of President Obama's strangely listless conference call of yesterday, my wonderful wife encouraged me to be kind.

So let me say something sympathetic about Donny Deutsch. Sure, he's a member of the Manhattan/Hamptons liberal axis. But I sense he's more of a old-fashioned Dem, someone, for example, who embraces American exceptionalism. So when on today's Morning Joe the adman admitted that the Obamacare failure might set back progressive government for an entire generation, it's noteworthy. Adding to liberal heartburn, Howard Fineman later said "I sort of agree with Donny" and that Obamacare could be a "huge disaster for Democrats."

My read on that is the Dems are attempting to de-couple it from Obama’s ego ...

Democrats are changing the name so down the road they can blame this horror on Republicans. It's hard to blame something called "Obamacare" on the GOP... even if the suck-ups at the New York Times were willing to push it...

Watching the order of the MSM switch-over to the new name will tell us how high they jump when their dem master tell them to jump. I assume NBC and MSNBC have already switched to the 'Affordable Care' lie.

I totally noticed that this weekend and thought so for the same reason. If any Freepers can get this idea to Levin, Hannity and Rush, it would be great.

What will Dems do if they conclude Deutsch is right?

Probably just continue to LIE as usual.

It’s a good thing Romney lost, or this would be playing out very differently.

“Failed Obamacare Will Set Big Government Back ‘For A Generation’”

This is a reasonable expectation but with our loveable RINO’s/GOPe about to take charge, it’s a pipe dream. The GOP needs a good house cleaning as much as the Dems need to be put in their place, if that does not happen, then “What Difference Does It Make?”

Thugs seem to ‘happen upon’ the same tactics ... on the brighter side it makes it easier for us to spot ‘em...

The GOPe did such a wonderful job the last time they had the keys to the car.

Hehe, well it will be fun if we see some ads putting Obama’s quotes up on the screen next to similar Hillary quotes followed by the clip of “What Difference Does It Make?”

I think it is because he’s a Kiwi...
Brits (and Kiwis are mostly British outlook) are weird like that.

Good. Now it’s time to repeal the Great Society.

Forever?

Nothing's forever.

...

As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;

And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!
