T.R. supported health insurance but OUTSIDE government. Obama has been pronouncing his support for national healthcare since he became a politician, predating Romneycare, which was passed in 2006 - as I'm sure you know.
Oh? He was proposing, in the middle of a presidential campaign, universal coverage, but the government wasn't going to be involved? Can you show me something to support that theory?
Did TR's proposal serve as the model for Obamacare? Has anybody called it Roobamacare?
Pawlenty calls it Obamneycare because Romneycare gave birth to Obamacare. "There's not a dime's worth of difference" between the two. Remember that phrase?
