Well, we could go on and try to make things better if the right tried to come make the law better by fixing and scrapping it. As bad as Obama's lie about keeping your doctor......it would be far far worse to tell millions who are finally covered under medicaid, private plans and under their parents plan, that were going to take your healthcare away.

And before any one here says that the right was not invited to the negotiating table on the ACA, over 100 amendments to the ACA bill was attached that originated from the right.

Um no. I am the first one to rush to the front of the line and say that the ACA needs to be fixed. But why don't you try to convince your fellow right wingers instead of screaming for repeal that they introduce amendments to make the bill better, just how they amended the original bill over 100 times.
A good start would be to expand medicaid to help your fellow citizen instead.

And please, something a little better than tort reform or selling across state lines.

We might actually improve things if the party of no decided that hey, lets try and make this work.

Im going to guess your not going discuss how to improve the system. Oh well, here enjoy these.

"The immediate goal is to make sure there are more people on private insurance plans. I mean, people have access to health care in America, after all, you just go to an emergency room."

---George Bush



"if you like not having a doctor, you can keep liking not having a doctor. And if you like being uninsured, you can keep liking being uninsured." --Republicans

Democrats didn't want Republican input when they crammed it through and now you want us to clean up the Democrats mess?

It was so great Obama had to lie about it to the American people.

The expansion of Medicaid sounds great until you realize that the federal government is going to pull back on the funding at a certain point and the individual states will have to pick up the tab. Here in California MediCal, California's version of Medicaid is already a burden on the state budget. The increased number of people on Medicaid will inevitability strain states ability to keep budgets from exploding. There is no free healthcare.

How did the republicans add over 100 amendments to the bill if the right wasn't invited or involved on the process of creating this law !?!?!?!

Face it, if Obama had implemented a law that just had tort reform and selling across state lines, they would still oppose that law. The party of obstruction

Good point and something that needs to be addressed. Maybe the Republicans will work on this if they find time after politicizing the issue.

So. I'm having a bad hair day and I'm pretty sure it's Obama's fault.

Thanks Obama!
