Repealing Obama's health care law won't be easy [Media Will Try To Demoralize You This Week]

Yes, if Mitt Romney wins the White House and his Republican allies retake the Senate, he could shred most of President Barack Obama's health care law without having to overpower a Democratic filibuster.

But it won't be as easy as some Republicans portend, and it certainly won't be quick.

Why?

Because any realistic effort to repeal the Affordable Care Act —as opposed to last week's quixotic vote in the GOP-controlled House —is sure to get jumbled together with lots of other issues, including Medicare, taxes, food stamps and defense spending.

Horse crap. The American people hate this law, and it'll get done.

This reads like Obama psychological operations, and I'm not falling for it.

[Diogenesis]

Neither Obama nor
Mr. RomneyCARE cares what the American people want.

Furthermore, this is Mr. RomneyCARE’s singular “achievement”,
so don’t expect anything BUT MORE OF IT.

Nice try author, but all the next president really has to do to kill it quietly is NOTHING. Then there will be NO filibuster and no media outrage because the new president will be killing parts of the bill that haven’t been felt yet and also killing the cuts that will drive seniors to the polls in record numbers.

This is a pant load deluxe. With a Repub Congress you do it. Simple. Single Issue bill. House and Senate do it the day they convene. Done.

Pure propaganda. This can be done easily and quickly. Then a President Romney starts rescinding every EO the Magic Negro issued. ALL OF THEM, Romney. No ifs, ands or buts. ALL OF THEM.

Of course it won't be easy, not with demrats and RINOS in control of the senate, and way to many in the House.

And we are fixing to elect another dang RINO for president! Because we are in ABO mode, not in Constitution and Founding Fathers mode. And most men and women no longer have the Grit, Sand or Backbone to fight for their FREEDOM any more.

Or Virgil Goode. VG said that repeal would be difficult even if the GOP were to win all three - House, Senate, and WH because of the “majorities to overcome”. If MR had said this he would have been called a surrender monkey by VG supporters.

If the American people want to see “demoralize”, just let this asinine law go into effect. It will be a replay of all of the horror stories we’ve heard about socialism in other places. The government power over our lives (and the loss of freedoms) will resemble all of the dark things that have happened in communist dictatorships throughout history.

In repealing this monstrosity, it’s going to have to be “damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!”

Congress needs to stop flinching every time the media burps.

Fuc* the media put them out of the play just do it.

In my opinion, ObamaCare is the next Holocaust as designed by Obama, Pelosi, Reid and the rest of the Liberal vermin in the US Congress. The ultimate power! Death Panels will decide who lives and who dies based on Big Brother’s criteria. What better way to do away with any group or class of people, e.g., religion, politics, activism, etc. We The People will face a death panel, be denied care, and shipped to a hospice center or could we call it a death camp?

[SoFloFreeper]

Yep. We must destroy Obamugabe’s Deathcare Law.

60 % of the voters oppose Obama”care.”

Senate Minority Leader Son-of-a-Mitch McConnell says it is going to be difficult to repeal Obama”care.”

Senator McConnell is lazy.
