It was a stupid name to begin with, drawn up be rejects like Michelle Bachmann.
Implementation of the ACA is expected to have glitches. These will be worked out, and tweaks by Dems will eventually make affordable health care a resounding success. Then what are you Pubs going to complain about?
Credit to President Obama for addressing a health care crisis that Republicans ignored during the Bush years.
I see that you are continuing with those reality altering drugs in the Bay Area.
Pelosi is now saying that she "always" has called it ACA or Affordable Care Act.
Right. And we've always been at war with Eastasia.
These people are straining the 5-minute attention span of their core voters, to the max.
Obama himself once predicted that, when it started working well, his opponents would stop calling it Obamacare, and would glumly call it something else.
The term “Obamacare” has largely disappeared from the mouths of Democrats as the president’s health care reform law has gone from a rallying cry to a political grenade.
President Obama once said he embraced the phrase on the 2012 campaign trail, telling supporters, “I do care.” As recently as Nov. 8, Obama predicted to a laughing crowd in New Orleans that his political opponents would stop using the term once the law became popular.
I didn't read the link but I heard Obama say that he wants to "re-brand" this "care act" as to not call it "Obamacare".
Sure Obama try to take yours and your dem ilk's fingerprints off of this you FRAUDS! - what loads of .
Has anyone stopped calling the Reinvestment and Recovery Act, the Stimulus? We could always call it Cash for Medical Clunkers. President Obama could be "The Glitch That Stole Christmas."
Obamacare is what you get when you refuse to elect Presidents called Botchegaloup or Snufflegusserwitz. No one would ever tag anything to those names.
The history books will note that it was labeled "Obamacare".
No matter how hard they try, the Dems cannot obliterate it from existence.
The label took hold and has been used for years now.
Several billion a year are spend administering Medicare. I am guessing Tricare, VA, and Medicaid are also in the billions. Ever seen any of those folks complaining about their care.
"Ever seen any of those folks complaining about their care."
I so want to place an "electric shock collar" on you...and every time you type or think the word 'Medicare', pull the lever.
Do you, or can you play any other tune??
Don't you think your axe that you've been grinding since day 1.....is sharp enough by now?
All children have their favorite toy! Take it away and they will cry.
