"Nothing Daniels has said is inconsistent with earlier Republican positions. "

I am only aware of McCain taking a mandate position.

Can you cite a reference for the Bush admin advocating national healthcare with an individual mandate?

That 2003 statement by Daniels is in line with the then Bush Administration positions (internally or externally). The article is a paraphrase ~ you did read that, right?

The writer of the piece has no document detailing a Republican proposal for an individual mandate.

Why would the Republicans do that anyway? We are not Fascist Pigs like the anti-semitic Democrats who are preparing to kill the Jews.

I mean, your President today sold Israel down the river and somebody is worrying about who said what about individual mandate?
