Who has changed their mind about Obama since 2008?

The ACA was almost 100% Republican proposals in the past including the mandate. Large parts of it were written by the Heritage Foundation. Hardly a liberal group of folks.

Many good things are already implemented, like the elimination of the "doughnut hole" which dropped seniors prescription costs by 50%. No more lifetime limits, denial or dropping of coverage for preexisting conditions, college age and young job seekers can stay on their parents policy to the age of 26, the cost to care ratio is now set at 80/20 for small insurers and 85/15 for large insurers. Before, it was more like 45/55 or 30/70. No cost wellness check ups, no cost cancer screenings, more low income children covered. The list goes on.

Now you can tell me what Republicans plan to replace ACA with once it is gutted. You know, "repeal and replace". What is the Republicans plan. Soaring healthcare prices are not going to magically fix themselves.

I already posted this but I am going to do it again.

You can hit the "sarcastic expression" blue button at the bottom and get all the info you want about what Obama has done.

I finally took a look at your link.

Big fucking deal.

He ain't done yet. Just today, the idiot was out inserting an anti- judicial activist statement into his speech wrt Mexico and Canada. Here I thought the left liked activist judges.

So, why should anyone waste their time trying to convince you?

A broken clock is correct twice a day, but that doesn't mean it's adequate. The recession is slowly recovering, but likely would have recovered faster without Obama's policies.

And I thought the right doesn't believe in legislating from the bench.

Yeah, I saw that edition of the Glenn Beck Show too.

It would have gone much deeper and lasted longer, IMO. I just don't buy the whole doing nothing is better line. Unless you're wealthy enough to ride it out without ending up living under an overpass.

Nice place to retire though. You'd think they'd have excellent public healthcare with all the money they're rolling in, but it's a disaster. Luckily, the private hospitals are pretty good, and a damn sight cheaper than here.

Yeah.

It would make it way too easy for him to win.

To be honest, it's not what he's done up to now that bothers me, it's what he'll do next as a lame duck.

Then again, I look at Romney, and can't help but wonder where the difference lies.

But the game is working as it's supposed to. You have a choice between two sumbitches you would have never picked in the first place if you REALLY had a choice.

I just hope the bastards don't clean me out and leave me eating out of a garbage can.

One vote will only get you so far.

I think what gets me, especially on this little forum, is that probably you and I will agree that what the Pukes are offering up isn't much to brag about. But the majority, who happen to be on the left, are incapable of admitting that what the Donks are offering up isn't much to brag about either.

I don't mind an open dialogue, but attitude and talking points wears on my patience. It's not necessary here.

If by the way, if you libs see this as a shot across your bow, your assumption is correct.

And as a case in point, you ran off Sandy G. That takes some doing. Keep it up and all you'll have left is a circle jerk.

Then he should run on it.
