Romney’s Revenge
National Review ^ | June 18, 2013 | National Review

Posted on 06/18/2013 6:39:46 AM PDT by National Review

Romney said his Bay State health reforms weren’t necessarily suited to other states. Few listened.

By Avik Roy

During the 2012 presidential campaign, Mitt Romney maintained that the health-reform law he signed in Massachusetts was not the same as Obamacare. “Our plan was a state solution to a state problem,” Governor Romney insisted. He was trying to fix Massachusetts’ uniquely broken insurance market, he said; Obamacare, by contrast, was a “a power grab . . . a one-size-fits-all plan.” Nobody took him seriously — not conservatives, and not liberals. But today, as the nation braces for health insurance “rate shock,” Romney’s critique of Obamacare is ringing true. Call it Mitt Romney’s revenge.

Since you are calling Romney a liar, perhaps you can specify for your readers what, specifically, he lied about?

PS I didn’t “gleefully” pull the lever for Romeny — I pulled it because Obongo Bozo is bad for America, and Romney would have been a far better President, despite his many, according to you, “shortcomings.”

BTW, Romney’s “shortcomings” pale into minuscule insignificance when compared to Obongo Bozos!

Just pick a position he had. He was big mister liberal in deed while governor and all of a sudden decided he was mister conservative when he wanted to be president.

Specifically?

And, be precise — quotations and sources would be helpful.

Accusations just won’t cut it, pal!

I’ve already told you what he lied about. If you were paying the slightest bit of attention you would be embarrassed to come here today and insist someone prove it to you. I’ve known lots of women over the years, smart and attractive women at that, who aren’t happy unless they have a man in their life lying to them and treating them like dirt. I susspect it’s the same with you and the gop. It’s leaders know you’ll vote for whatever big governmrnt liberal they shove at you because you have nowhere else to go.

You have NOT quoted ANY Romney lies!

You have merely stated that he lied.

There is a difference!

Put up, or shut up!

Thanks for your uplifting comments — you demonstrate all the LIEberal characteristics I loathe — rude, crude and profane name-calling arguments without substance or meaning. We’ll all be better off with you posting over on DU or some other LIEberal forum — you certainly have not added any value here!
