I know that 's hard for Obamabots to accept and they would like to imagine otherwise now that its flaws are being revealed after Dear Leader and his captured media kept them hidden for 4 years, but that's the way it is.

If these bills are passed, people can indeed keep their plans and can opt out of Obamcare.

I'll bet even some Bots will opt out, although their insanity will keep them quiet about it.
Errrr, Obamacare is a product of the Heritage Foundation ...

lol. No matter how much you Bots now want to disown Obamacare, you can't do it.

It's Obamacare and it always will be.

People didn't get to keep their plans and don't like it.

The only thing it has done is give the middle class a larger bill to pay.

Pure drivel again from a true leftist....

President Obama proposed that conservative compromise, proven to work after being signed into law by a Republican governor, who the Republicans even venerated so much that they had him run against President Obama.

So basically, the liberals wanted X. The right-wingers wanted 0. The right-wingers crafted a compromise proposal, let's call it 1/2 X. The liberals said, "Okay." Now the right-wingers want a compromise on the compromise they made up in the first place. If you don't understand and acknowledge the childishness of the right-wing shenanigans, then you're just deceiving yourself.
What a damn lie......why do you lie like this all the time?

Quote:

In August 1994, Democratic Senate Majority Leader George J. Mitchell introduced a compromise proposal that would have delayed requirements of employers until 2002, and exempted small
businesses. However, "even with Mitchell’s bill, there were not enough
Democratic Senators behind a single proposal to pass a bill, let alone stop a
filibuster."


A few weeks later, Mitchell announced that his compromise plan was dead, and
that health care reform would have to wait at least until the next Congress. The
defeat weakened Clinton politically, emboldened Republicans, and contributed to
the notion that Hillary Clinton was a "big-government liberal" as decried by
conservative opponents.
So, once again, the dems could not even gain enough votes, and to top it off, the senate was held by DEMS by a 57 - 43 majority....

So, please tell us where and how it was the repubs fault.....

I hate the games they play but why should the {R}s throw Obama a lifeline? There is not one {R} vote in support of the bill, thus making this the {D} parties baby. The {R}s should just let this disaster rip and let the voters take out their anger at the polls.

There's some truth to this.

But forcing O to keep his promise has consequences for Obamacare too. In fact, it destroys it.
