Obamacare was shoved through and since that time and before the vote, some warned of the problems with it among other things. These people were bashed and demonized heavily by Democrats, the media, Hollywood, and even out President. A few years later, we've been proven right. So much so, Obama and the Dems are delaying and altering parts of Obamacare....especially with the 2014 elections coming up.

They hood winked, lied, and deceived American people. They are owed an apology. Shame on all of them for their deceit and demonization. And shame on some of you liberals that continue to excuse and defend these people and this entire mess. Your agenda has really clouded and perhaps ruined any common sense and decency you may have once had.

Democrats are incapable of apologizing for their mistakes. They don't mind apologizing for the United States (because they generally don't like it) or blaming others for what they do though.

Their refusal to acknowledge the clusterfark that is Obamacare is what will cost them the Senate in 2014.

Ha! Good luck. It will instead be spun to "it's Bush's fault" or diverted to "but, but, the Tea Party..." you know, the usual boogeymen.

What the hell does Hollywood have to do with Obamacare/Romneycare?

You want to blame someone besides Obama blame Romney, the originator.

Of course they won't. They're dirt bags and this is more proof of our media corruption problems. If more Americans had better priorities, they'd be held accountable. People like Reid would be physically thrown from office. Blatant lies and deceit of the American public. Unfortunately, half the country has higher priorities like TV, gossip, sports, and celeb worship. They don't take much very seriously and let these scumbags get away with it

Yeah, this seems to be gibberish. As far as I can tell, Obama hasn't "demonized" anyone. And Hollywood is happy to make fun of any sort of teredo type. Also, to be Frank, "Obamacare" is exactly what Obama said he would write into law when he was running for president back in 2008, with the only notable exception being the individual mandate, which was instead Hillary's proposal. Health care access was one of the major issues of the 2008 presidential campaign, every important candidate had a proposal on it, they ran on it, and Obama won and ensured that his proposal became law. So no, there was no deception involved, and I see no need for any apology.

A more interesting discussion is: why do so many republicans pretend that "Obamacare" was some sort of surprise, when it mostly falls along the path that Obama loudly proposed when he was running for president? And why did they vehemently oppose it, when it's largely comprised of their own ideas? Isn't it they that owe the US an apology?

Right, it's Romneys fault, not Obama, Reid, Pelosi and the rest of the democraps who rammed it through behind closed doors, bribed people and 100% excluded republicans. So predictable, liberals are incapable of taking responsibility for their actions.

Romney had more to do with Obamacare than Hollywood did.

Continue to scapegoat , but Obamacare is Romney's baby, Obama just stole that idea.

Obama, like every other significant candidate in 2008, made reforming health care a major part of his platform. Everyone had an idea on how to control out out-of-control health care costs. Obama won the election, and put his proposal into law.

The end.

Get over it. Stop pretending that is was some sort of secret, when it was repeatedly debated on national tv networks. Stop whining that it was "rammed through congress", when it was bound to happen in any event. And stop whining that Hollywood had anything to do with it, when it was driven by people who lost loved ones because their insurance companies gave them the finger, door women who were tossed into bankruptcy because their insurance companies said "Oh, you didn't tell us your husband had acne as a kid, we won't at for your breast cancer treatments, but we'll keep your payments". And for that matter, let's stop pretending that insurance company CEOs didn't testify to congress that they would continue doing such things, unless the law was changed.
