Do you support the Heritage Foundation, one of the premiere conservative think tanks? You realize that Newt didn’t just come up w/ the individual mandate by himself. He worked in conjunction w/ the Heritage Foundation.
Is the Heritage Foundation not worth supporting either because of trying to come up w/ solutions that ultimately failed? Most great thinkers have as many bad ideas as they do good. It’s ferreting out between the two where the great ones flourish.
I’m sure glad I don’t have others trumpeting all of my failures & bad ideas on a regular basis. I’ve accomplished a great deal in my life thanks to creative thinking. Not all the thoughts were great, but they ultimately to the great ones, because I was at least willing to think & take risks in the laboratory of life.
I hear the belly acher’s about Newt’s thoughts on individual mandates & the like (not implimitation mind you) & even though I disagree vehemently w/ the premise, I applaud the effort, something that his detractors are seemingly so unwilling to do. They bash Newt but have no answers themselves. Do you? What are your answers to healthcare?
I wouldn’t support an individual mandate if Ronald Reagan suggested it. We HAVE to get government out of our lives or we’re doomed and I don’t believe that Newt is 100% on board with that.
You’re right, everyone makes mistakes and we need to accept that for all candidates but forcing American citizens to participate in yet another doomed-to-fail program is no small error.
Just sayin’
