The universe of lies to promote Obamacare----and the rest of the Democrats' anti-America agenda----has infected the entire body of US law.
We are still being given false information in order to disguise the unrelenting failures of Obamacare.
In the diseased minds of Obama and his acolytes, chaos itself was the goal----to destroy what existed to give rise to the Democrats' New Order.
The so-called "Affordable Care Act" is more revolutionary than the administration is admitting. It is truly a policy based on chaos. Obamacare never needed to work. It only needed to obliterate everything else.
Americans are totally revulsed....and showed it at the voting booth on November 4. Obamacare has proven to be the Democrat Party's death knell.
“Americans are totally revulsed....and showed it at the voting booth on November 4. Obamacare has proven to be the Democrat Party’s death knell.”
Only if the GOP takes advantage of the situation. Today it appears Boehner and McConnell have no backbone for the type of hardball politics and public relations campaign required to repeal Obamacare.
Obamacare is simply a step on the road to single payer, taxpayer financed healthcare controlled and administered by the federal government. The Wall Street banks and multinational corporations funding the GOP, through the Chamber of Commerce and PACs, want to offload their financial participation in the funding of employee healthcare onto the federal government. The women and men in the executive suites of these corporations understand the game to achieve their long term objective which is the same as the Democrats.
The real wakeup call in the 2008 election for the GOPe was not the loss of their faux conservative candidate McCain to Obama. it was the shift in what had been reliable corporate campaign contributions to the Democrat Party. Obamacare passed because big business wanted it to pass, not because Obama and his leftist associates wanted it to pass. Business opposed Hillarycare in the 1990’s and it lost. In 2009-2010 business stood aside or actively supported the ACA while it was going through Congress. Even big pharma and the medical insurance companies funded public ads in favor of O’care.
If the GOP truly wants to defund O’Care it is possible in early 2015 for the Republicans to pass a bill repealing the ACA. If they pass a repeal bill with mechanisms for dealing with preexisting conditions while creating a national competitive market for insurance there are enough wavering Democrats in the House and Senate who are concerned about their electoral prospects in 2016 to override an Obama veto. Both McConnell and Boehner understand how to add a little pork to sweeten and secure a backroom deal.
I suspect big business predicated its funding of the 2014 GOP congressional races on amnesty passing, ACA not being repealed, and the conservative wing of the party being silenced on social issues. With respect to the ACA the backroom deal has been made. The Republicans will pass a straight repeal bill over the vocal objections of Obama, Pelosi, Reid, and the mainstream press. Until the President casts his veto we will be treated to stories every night on television about children with leukemia who would not have been treated had their parents not purchased a policy on the exchange. We’ll also see diabetics and cancer patients who would not be receiving medical care if the ACA hadn’t eliminated restrictions on pre-existing conditions. Obama will save them all with his veto and he will be heralded for fighting for the little man. McConnell and Boehner will tell the base “we tried”, and then go to work doing what big business is paying them to do — spread the pork around in the form of direct subsidies, grants, and lucrative government contracts.
Boehner and McConnell are not national leaders. They are party hacks and administrators. They also lack vision, patriotism, and empathy for their middle class voting constituents. These men are at the peak of the power pyramid. Their joy and ego gratification comes from exerting power over other people, not from preserving the blessings of individual liberty for the population.
