Good, Tea Partiers don't hold a monopoly on patriotism and American values.

Weird.
Its not so much "Steeling the Tea Party Symbol, more over its a a Politician trying to make Obama care on some level Patriotic.

The Program is in serious trouble and no PR will save this backwards law. The Shame is there is some good points, but the cost and the actual value was never thought carefully.
Dems were too busy trying to by pass Senator Brown "No" vote!

The law isnt in serious trouble, and its cost are still far below that of the system had we left everything the same.

Republicans are to busy lying about the law to actual debate any real problem it might have.

Really? The law is flaw beyond debate. No one in the DNC and the so call "Experts" never thoroughly thought out what the impact of cost . As a result even private policies are more expensive and all most out of reach for most Americans. Even with the so call "credits.

Aetna and Blue cross as already put it out there they would decline the Obama Care and would be better off back to free market concepts.

For the record it is a good thing that America, not so much " republicans " is waking up to the kind of Socialist policies and Social justice" There is no benefit to business or the Professionals of Caregivers"

My company had better cost and value before Obama Care!

Default Conservatives Steal Womans Photo for Anti-Obamacare DirtyTrick

We know conservatives have a hard time finding actual victims of Obamacare . Instead they go fishing around the internet looking for someones picture to post on their right wing face book website. Ya gotta love the Tea Party..too bad so many are dependent on government health care. The woman below the Tea Party types stole here image from her website and it has nothing to do with Obamacare. It was taken after she had her hair colored the wrong color.

Default Another Tea Party-Americans For Prosperity Ad Comes Under Scrutiny

Ya gotta love the Tea Party-AFP. They have spent 30 million on bogus ads and they have come up with another one. What I want to know is why do they always have some person under 65 in their ads. Why dont they have a real Tea Partier in there complaining that his government benefits have been cut?

Now we have another woman in Michigan a mother of five who is complaining she is paying more for the ACA in a new ad. Trouble is she is another Tea Party operative.

"Wendt, incidentally, is a Republican precinct delegate for Michigan’s 2nd congressional district. In June, she signed a toughly worded petition warning GOP lawmakers in the Michigan House of Representatives not to accept expansion of Medicaid or the creation of a health care exchange permitted under the Affordable Care Act—or face a suspension of “all monetary and logistical support.” The petition sought to bind the Republicans to the themes of the party’s 2012 platform that declared the law was an “attack on our Constitution” and an “attempt to impose upon Americans a euro-style bureaucracy.”

Now Wendt is probably saving hundreds if not thousands on the ACA and is complaining just like Julie Boonstra. Why not just roll out geezers complaining about their Medicare?

Big claims, few details in anti-Obamacare ad alleging soaring costs

Republicans are so desperate to destroy the seeds of planting the idea, in every American's head, that you have a right to healthcare. Seems like only tea party geezers think they have the right to healthcare. "I've got mine, screw everybody else".
