Still More ObamaCare Lies (Obama blames GOP for his failures)
IBD ^ | 12/2/2013 | staff

Posted on 12/03/2013 4:11:58 AM PST by tobyhill

President Obama says so many false things about ObamaCare that it's hard to keep up. But here are two more untruths that deserve debunking.

In speech after speech these days, Obama tries to shift blame for the ongoing ObamaCare debacles onto the backs of Republicans.

In late November, for example, Obama complained that "instead of rooting for failure, or refighting old battles, Republicans in Congress need to work with us to improve those things about the Affordable Care Act that aren't working as well as they should."

Obama's attempt to escape responsibility for the failure of his signature domestic achievement isn't surprising. But in this case, he's falsifying the record.

The fact is that Republicans in the House have already done much to fix ObamaCare, and Obama himself has signed many of those bills into law.

One of the first things Republicans did after taking control of the House was to repeal an onerous tax-reporting scheme Democrats tucked into the law, which would have buried businesses in IRS paperwork. Obama signed that in April 2011.

“instead of rooting for failure, or refighting old battles, Republicans in Congress need to work with us to improve those things about the Affordable Care Act that aren’t working as well as they should...”

Neat trick... considering no Republicans voted for this excuse for legitimate health care reform!!

Right now the GOP needs to sit back, expose the horror stories and watch it collapse. After it collapses then recommend small changes that deal with cost, not social engineering, like selling across state lines and tort reform.

I don’t understand why the Republicans haven’t gotten up and remind the American people that they did not vote for this mess so why would we want to help make it better. I wish we had Republicans who did not care about reelection and were able to tell what they really think.

I absolutely loathe this ignorant, lying POS, but I am about at the same point with the gutless, pansified Repukelicans. NOT ONE REPUKE VOTED FOR THIS HEALTHCARE DESTROYING POS LEGISLATION!

So why aren't they out there every day hammering the fact that none of them voted for O-hole's destruction? Why aren't they out there every day screaming that they told the American people this was going to happen AND THAT IT IS ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE?! Instead, they cower in the corner in the fetal position, gutless pansies horrified at the thought of being called names for criticizing this ignorant, socialist POS and the destruction he has wrought.

Let's review the bidding ... Nope, not a single GOP vote.

Yup, sold - solidly and singularly - dim-0-crat.

IIRC, 2014 is an election year - just a reminder for RINO's all, as well as the folks that forced the ACA upon us.

Correct!!

It would be a giant step in the right direction if everyone concerned with this issue would forego and permanently desist in their customary and VERY disingenuous, emotional hysterics.

What in the world do you know of that is successful, efficient and worth a damn which has been saturated from start to finish with the kind and extent of mindless and maudlin emotion that THIS issue has been?

Commie Obama Speaking Rules:

1.) Begin with a Lie
2.) Blame others
3.) Ridicule others
4.) Demonize others.
5.) Swagger in an arrogant manner before, during and after each speech.

All of Obama’s policies, foreign and domestic, are about punishing Whitey - nothing more.

Obama blames GOP for his Obamacare failures...

Give the guy a break (/snix)---he's a "community organizer." He invested in Chicago criminal politics---and won the federal lottery bigtime.

But he still thinks like a streetwise Chicago hustler---"a community organizer".......and he talks like one.

Obama's using the same tactic---he remembers fondly how easy it was to dupe stupid people on food stamps and SSI into thinking they could payoff subprime mtges. *

He is clueless that there are actually people out here who cant be hustled----who would have told him where to put those pipe-dream subprime mtges.

Who are telling him now what he can do w/ his Obamacare pipe-dream.

=========================================

* DERANGED PROGRESSIVE THINKING Obama's now suing banks for predator-lending--for "burdening" ths stupids w/ mtges they cant possibly payoff--the same banks he originally sued to setup the subprime mtges.

Hey obama, we all know obamacare is a bad idea, that it is socialist and un-American. Therefore it is our duty as patriots to fight it at every turn. The moment your sorry backside is gone we will be taking it completely apart.

You knew that was coming. Blaming the insurance companies will be next. These are who his worshipers and disciples will blame for their pain. His worshipers and disciples will believe their lord, master, messiah, and in their mind, savior, Obama and not the truth. This is the reason for one to ignore the “polls” that show Obama’s popularity plummeting. His minions are merely acting like children that did not get their way in the candy store. Soon their master will throw some more freebies their way and all will be well again, to wit}they will love him once more.

As for the "moderates" and "independents" that the media always proudly trumpet, they are merely more of his disciples and worshipers who lack the courage to admit they are his, thus, they follow and worship him from afar.

As someone else put it -
