Bob Dole Bucks GOP, Says Obamacare Needed (A loser speaks in the same language as loser McCain)
newsmax ^ | 10/7/09

Former Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole says a top GOP leader asked him not to publicly support health care reform. But he's doing so anyway.

The former Kansas senator said Wednesday that health care reform is "one of the most important measures members of Congress will vote on in their lifetimes."

Dole opposes a government-run insurance option, saying it could put private insurers out of business. He expects something to pass by early 2010.

Dole spoke at a health care summit in Kansas City. He said afterward that some Republicans have asked him to stay mum including Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

The Kentucky senator's spokesman denied the claim. He said McConnell hasn't spoken with Dole recently and agrees that reform is needed.

Dole was always a bit RINO.

However, to be fair, it only says he supports “reform” which could mean anything...

Regardless, who cares about Dole at this point.

I call Dole a LIAR
he is old and confused
not supporting Obamacare doesn’t mean not suppporting health care

It is sad when stupid people can’t grasp the difference

someone needs to explain the difference to idiots like Dole

What I am waiting to hear, is for the politicians to say “We need Obamacare, and we’ll join in on it like everyone else”. Then, and only then will I consider the worthiness of this plan on it’s merits.

But when a politican says “I refuse to join in on the same plan that I am forcing on the rest of America”, I refuse to join in too. I will never eat at a resturant where the cooks refuse to eat the food they prepare.

Wait
I read the article which does NOT support the headline
Dole did NOT support obamacare, in fact he said it would not work.

not sure why he pretended any GOPer asked him to not speak out for health care reform

Yep, parlays his war hero status into a RINO and expects everyone to salute “It’s his turn Bob Dole”.

America does not want Oba-Mao’s health care rationing.

Socialized medicine is necessary. I know it, you know it, and the American people know it.

Clinton was a pussy, Sincerely Dole.
