Democrats: Americans Who Dislike ObamaCare Are Stupid
IBD Editorials ^ | February 24, 2012

Posted on 02/24/2012 5:06:49 PM PST by Kaslin

Health Care: Democrats used to say the more people knew about ObamaCare, the more they'd like it. Well, the public has had almost two full years to soak it in, and more want it repealed than ever.

A Quinnipiac University poll last week found 52% of Americans want ObamaCare scrapped. That's up from 44% last May. Meanwhile, just 39% want to keep it, down from 45%. Even one in five Democrats now says Congress should repeal the law.

That hasn't kept liberals from calling ObamaCare foes idiots, which is what Democratic party head Debbie Wasserman Schultz did when asked about the poll.

Americans only oppose ObamaCare because they "didn't know" about its many benefits. "The pieces of health care reform, when you ask Americans about them, they overwhelmingly support them," she said.

Democrats have fed a credulous media that line since they shoved the law down our throats in 2010.

Obama pollster Joel Benenson promised "once reform passes, the tangible benefits Americans will realize will trump the fear-mongering rhetoric opponents are stoking today."

David Axelrod said that "health care, over time, is going to become more popular."

People on both sides of any argument assume the other side is stupid. At most, only one of them are.

When I was a teenager, I thought my parents were stupid.

Liberals are teenagers...they can't see the truth because they either haven't achieved maturity...or they refuse to grow up.

If Odumbocare is so damn awesome, why are there more than 1000 waivers given in the past 2 years?

David Axelrod said that "health care, over time, is going to become more popular."

Forcing somebody else to pay YOUR bills has always been "popular".

See, that proves Democrats are ignorant/stupid -- they can't even spell "like"!

Maybe, but somehow I’m still not convinced.

You can’t get rid of Obamacare until you get rid of Obama

Well, don't expect Romney to do it! He's the author of it all!

Romneycare and Obamacare are vastly different. Ann Coulter told me so.

If you destroy a Democrat in reasoned argument, what it eventually devolves into is that you are either stupid or a `hater’ or both: a stupid hater.

Here’s the way these things often go, a classic example of arguing with the Dems `Sherri and Terri’:

Clinton really screwed the pooch didn’t he?
Clinton did nothing wrong in the Oval office.
Well, he had surreptitious sex with a youthful intern.
No, he didn’t.
She says he did. He admits it she was there on many occasions under unusual circumstances.
But it wasn’t sex. He said so himself.
He could have been blackmailed. Setting aside legalities, it was imprudent and he lied about it.
Prove it.
She just did. She had the remarkable foresight to save and produce a dress with his DNA on it. Suppose she had held this over his head and national security had somehow been compromised.
Again it wasn’t sex. And it was consensual.

Back to the question—it was wrong. He was wrong.
Sherri: You’re stupid and you just hate him.
Terri: You’re just a stupid hater.
Bart: Bite me.

What has happened to skinny little Annie...has she gone over to the dark side?

Reminiscent of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers."

The democrat party should be declared a seditous organization, and the nazi freak Axelroad should be hanged from the nearest lamppost.

OK fine, I’m stupid but that doesn’t negate my rights.

She’s gone right off the deep end. Her defense of Romneycare, and Romney in general is laughable.

Whenever anyone endorses Romney, I immediately wonder who much he has paid them.

With Romney...it's always about money...and, ultimately, about his church!
