Location: Kansas | ........amongst Democrats. If you'll notice as it was pointed out on Fox News last night, Dems and BO who once lovingly referred to this failed program as Obamacare are now calling it the Affordable Care Act. Charles Krauthammer........."too late."

Remember in the debates Romney apologized to Obama for referring to it as Obamacare and Obama said "No, I actually like that name." They showed Reid, Pelosi and a gang of senators and congressmen referring to it as Obamacare in speeches but have now changed their reference to ACA. |

Location: GA | During a debate with Mitt Romney, Romney called it Obamacare and when he apologized for the use of the term, Obama said I like it.
Obama was also quoted as saying on the campaign trail that he had become fond of the term Obamacare.
Other democrats have used this term as well as there way to rub salt in the wound. Now they are running from it like the plague.
All politicians are hypocrites but in the last few days the democrats have taken it to an all new level of idiocracy. |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | And the acts of desperation just keep coming, almost on a daily basis. Harrey Reid finally did press the button on the "nuclear option", something both sides have threatened to do. Well, back in '05, when the Republicans were threatening to abolish the fillibuster for judicial nominees, the Democrats, in lock step, went ballistic and spoke out on how this was such an abuse of power and a travesty to change the rules and eliminate something that has been in place for 225 years.....clips were shown of Obama, Hillary, Reid, Kerry, and Biden all protesting this. The GOP backed away. Now the shoe is on the other foot....only the Dems didn't back away. This is vital to the preservation of ObozoCare because now Obama's appointments to the bench can be extreme progressives and they can rule in favor of Obozocare across the land in cases where there are legal challenges.
Then we have Obama pushing back next year's enrollment deadline by a month....until AFTER the mid terms election. The reason for this is obvious and undeniable.
Talk about a power grab! This is the tyranny just beginning to be unveiled. "2016: Obama's America" is beginning to unfold. |

I have my doubts the O supporters will see him differently. The lady from Washington who thought she was getting great insurance only to find out she did not qualify for subsidies and is choosing to pay the penalty said she does not blame Obama or the ACA but Washington state- doesn't even make sense. I have seen so many clips interviewing people on the street and they really believe insurance did not have to cancel the policies because of the ACA. They buy his lies and spin. The next PR move is to blame the insurance companies for using the word 'cancelled" instead of modified or renewed. They are uneducated about the true extent of the law and happy in their ignorance. |

It has allways been the Affordable Care Act, the republicans dubbed it "Obamacare" during their campaign against it.
As a fan of the big O you should know that it is "The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act".
It was dubbed Affordable Care Act by democrats so as to emphasize the Affordable part to further draw in the masses.
It has hardly proven to protect patients and certainly is not affordable.

You want your name associated with success not failure. Suddenly this plan became a calamity, then the Dems didn't want to wear the brand anymore.

Krauthammer thinks it will be something like Democare someday associated with the whole party not just Barack Obama.

It is affordable to the people that don't work because they can't and the ones that don't work because of choice. The latter love it and many that can't work wish they could. |

The website is putting people on medicaid that are well off, even a millionaire when they sign up. When they have tried to get off medicaid and request straight health insurance they are being told there is nothing that can be done. One woman said she will just do without if they will not take her off medicaid. The patient care under medicaid is horrendous and will only get worse. There are few doctors around here that even take it anymore. |

patient care under medicaid is very state dependent and in plenty of states, medicaid is much better than other insurance...at taxpayers expense |

Since I had to shop for new insurance in Texas, I asked the doctors that I have gone to what insurance they don't accept and all said Medicaid and a few added TriCare to the list. |
