Mit Romney?

Although technically when it got past Dem moderates it was a more conservative version of Romney's plan...

Do people still not know that in 2025?

I'm constantly surprised how people can be so opinionated, but never curious enough to learn....

Like, that's my whole point

Obama sold us "fixing healthcare"

And we literally ended up with a more conservative version of the Republican plan. Because moderate Dems sided with Republicans.

Were you agreeing wit me and I just "whooshed"?

Mit Romney?

yep, and guess who suddenly opposed it once it was put forward? Who's party opposed it? who is trying to get rid of it? Who called it "obama-care" ? and why wasnt it "romney Care?" I am also surprised at how people who are seemingly smart can watch a political party do a 180 degree turn on their own designs just to obstruct. and then literally say their obstruction is the fault of the opposition. Its like watching a child being told to step on a lego and then the parent tells them its not their fault. Like. Little. Babies.

Right ...

So what about the elected Democrats who said Romenys plan had to become more conservative for them to vote for it?

Everyone on the correct side has a D by their name, you seem to get that...

You just don't understand that everyone with a D by their isn't on the correct side

Every square is a rectangle, but not every rectangle is a square

I hope that got thru to you, but I'll never know
