George Washington wanted Obamacare, Pelosi says [VIDEO]
Democratic leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi emerged into the sunlight April 1 to applaud a rush of sign-ups for Obamacare, and immediately described it as the long-sought goal of Gen. George Washington and the nation’s Founding Fathers in 1787.
“It is really so heart warming for those of us who worked so hard [to make sure] many more people in our country would have access to healthcare,” she told reporters at the stakeout position just outside the West Wing portico.
“There are those critics, bumps in the road, but they’ve only been turbulence. They have not been an obstacle to the American people having healthier life that our that our founders wanted for them,” she said.
Those founders wanted “life — a healthier life — liberty and the freedom to pursue their happiness, not [be] job-locked, but having benefits that having health-care policies that are portable, they could be self-employed, be a photographer — they could start their own business, they could change jobs, they could reach their aspirations,” she declared.
“And isn’t that a wonderful thing for a society and for an economy?” she added.
In contrast, the GOP’s House leader, Speaker John Boehner, called for the law’s repeal.
“The president’s health care law continues to wreak havoc on American families, small businesses and our economy, and as I’ve said many times, the problem was never just about the website – it’s the whole law,” he said in a March 31 statement.
“Millions of Americans are seeing their premiums rise, not the lower prices the president promised. Many small businesses are afraid to hire new workers, instead cutting hours and dropping health coverage for existing employees.

I didn't watch the video because she makes me sick.
I didn't watch the video because she makes me sick.
I was going to say, she should know, she used to date him!
The most ridiculous proclaimation of government in modern times. In America it's a contradiction in terms. We have "access" to anything.
She is a demented child.
What did demented children ever do to deserve being likened to HER?
Don’t slander GW like that.
If I remember my government school history correctly, I think one of the last things Washington said was that he wanted the moochers to have free Obama-Phones too.
Was he also a Cafeteria Catholic?
She must have been mistaking bat guano for caviar all these years. She is certifiably insane.
Washington had a Cadillac bloodletting plan.
Watching that video I can okay ask, why hasn't she been committed? She's CLEARLY insane.
Hey It wasn't Georges fault, witches have the power of glamour to bewitch the unwary! You will note that Pelosi was unsuccessful since George married Martha! ;^ )
Two words for these lying rats, “YOU FIRST!”
So the guy that basically refused a crown that he could have had if he wanted, would have supported a tyrannical scam like Obamacare....that is worse than a crown?
Really? Quite the forward thinking, Old' George was, wasn't he. Why doesn't pelousy at least say something plausible, rather than photographer, perhaps AbominableActCare would free the founders to pursue blacksmithing or surveying - GW was a big surveyer, would have loved to survey more if it wasn't for lack of healthcare insurance.
Pelosi dated George Washington? Nah, she was too old for him.
George Washington would have held you up as an example of the danger to free and independent citizens, Ms. Pelosi.
Nah..GW had MUCH better taste in women.
