59% of seniors have an unfavorable view of Obamacare
Multi State Lawsuit ^

Posted on 02/24/2011 2:12:06 PM PST by The Doctor

According to a poll released by Kaiser, 59% of seniors have an unfavorable view of ObamaCare. This is about on par with Rasmussen’s numbers, and considering the conservative nature of the demographic, this is not especially surprising.

The catch? The HHS has been spending millions on television ads to promote the health care law to seniors. Poll results like these show that the ad campaign has failed, and seniors are not budging on their discontent with the law.

Especially those who’ve not received their yearly COLA that the politicians get and also gov’t employees do. If it was a Republican president in there you’d hear the squawking from the media and Demo-rats from here to .... where ever.

He's OK with those seniors who are still paying taxes, aren't on Medicare or Medicaid and vote Democrat.

The rest of us should die, for all he cares.

Seniors are, and will be, the biggest voting demographic. Obama just pissed off the majority of voters.

“Wait ‘til they have their first sit-down with a death panel.”

Been thinking about that. Everytime obuma’s deathcare panel sentences a senior to death we have in place reciprocal legislation to summarily execute a death panel Nazi. Make the job dangerous.

Alexandr Solzhenitsyn suggested something along those lines...

“What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive?.... The [Security] Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers ... and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!”

I hope it doesn't come to that here.

“What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive?.”

You got it Pain in the Neck.

I don’t recall the quote from Solzhenitsyn verbatim, but he also suggested that people wait in dark hallways with ice picks, hammers and fire pokers to kill the commies. Reacting thus would’ve ground Stalin’s death machine to a quick halt.

We need to impress on people in America that we’re dealing with leftists, every bit as dangerous as Hitler’s Nazis and Stalin’s commies.

Commies and Nazis react to and understand three things:

1) Threats of violence

2) Violence

3) And death

There’s no negotiating with them. You kill them or they’ll kill you.

If we can’t crush these leftists with legislation, we’ll need to kill them on the battlefield. I prefer the former.
