GUEST,Nobody in Particular BS: So who's signed up for Obamacare? (599* d) RE: BS: So who's signed up for Obamacare? 15 Nov 13


I'm sorry. I posted the last post and left out a comment to 'Guest'. You said, "1. The Affordable Care Act (there's no such thing as Obamacare) is a Democrat Bill, so they do know what's in it. Not what they wanted in it, but all they could get when they cannot get a majority against the 40% of Repubs. The stupid reasoning behind US so-called democracy alows a 40% tail to wag the 60% dog."

You've either distorted the facts or re-wrote a bit of history here. With all due respect, when the bill was passed by both Houses of Congress, there was a Democratic majority in both. The rolls have now changed since the last election, due in part to the public's re-action to 'Obama Care' but your 60/40 analogy just simply was not the case when this was voted on. That being the case, why in the world didn't they vote for a single payer plan ORIGINALLY as Mr. Firth suggests was the goal of the 'plan' all along??
As so far as the Democrats all knew what was in it, No they didn't, rather only what they were told. Are you ignoring Speaker Pelosi's now famous comment right before the vote was passed? "We have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it."

'Guest', don't get upset, but you stand corrected.

Somebody is conning somebody here, and somebody is being fooled, wouldn't you agree, Mr Firth?
