Hillary Clinton: Obamacare too important to turn back
The Politico ^ | March 5, 2014 | David Nather

Hillary Clinton showed more signs of flexibility Wednesday on how Obamacare is implemented, but she insisted the law is too important to “turn the clock back.”

In a question-and-answer session following a lecture at UCLA, Clinton suggested she’s open to different ways of achieving the health law’s goals. She praised Arkansas — the state where she and her husband rose to political fame — for carrying out a new approach to expanding Medicaid coverage, by using the federal money to buy private health insurance for more than 100,000 low-income residents.

Clinton called the move, spearheaded by Democratic Gov. Mike Beebe and a Republican-led Legislature, a “brilliant approach” that allowed the state to increase health coverage despite GOP concerns about adding more people to the traditional Medicaid program. The Arkansas House approved the plan’s renewal Tuesday...

As if we needed any more reasons not to ever elect her.

Notice she acts like the funds for Medicaid are coming out of a leprechauns pile of gold or a unicorn’s rear end? It isn’t free, Hillary!

Again. When libs were asked “What’s Hillary’s most notable achievement”? There was only a blank stare. They can’t even make sh&& up.

Exactly. If she will be in charge come January 2017, she has to have the means to control life, and 1/6th to 1/7th of this country’s economy at the flip of a “.....at the HHS director’s discretion....”

We not only should tromp this law beneath the earth, we should hound, persecute and bring every politician who voted for it to account.

That’s what the Lefties have been hoping for all along: get this bloodsucker embedded so deeply in the system that you can’t dig it out with a backhoe. Anyone who suggests it can be “fixed” is complicit. It has to be killed, its rotting corpse burned, the ashes scattered, and the pyre’s soil salted. Obamascare delenda est.

I would’ve said “marrying a man who went on to be governor and president, even though she plays for the other team” or some such.

Obama seems to be repealing it step by step on his own.
If it is so great, roll it out!

The bastard backstabber Mitt Romney agrees.

The GOP agrees, too.

And every Democrat should be proudly trumpeting this great achievement in the upcoming election! Indeed, if they are not, then their opponents should be trumpeting the achievement of their opponent, no matter how hard they try to run away from it.

Hillary Clinton ... insisted the law is too important to “turn the clock back”...

...to when you had your own health insurance plan and an actual MD as your family doctor and you could see him or her within a week.

The felonious h klintoon usually can’t remember a thing when she is asked to testify about anything. She is a brain-addled, alcoholic, chronic liar, fat-slob marxist zombie. Why would anyone with a scintilla of even partially-functioning brain matter listen to anything this criminal says about anything?
