Since when is a right a tax and a mandate?

Keeping and bearing arms is a right, but my right to do so does not form the basis for the Federal government taxing my neighbor to provide me a subvention to buy a rifle and ammunition, nor to regulate firearms manufactures on the plea of ensuring affordability of the exercise of said right should I be poor or improvident with my means.

Likewise my right to freedom of the press does not create a basis for the Federal government to interfere in the market for printing presses and paper to ensure my ability to exercise that right.

I will gladly cede the point that health insurance and health care are rights, provided they are understood in the same sense as the right to keep and bear arms and the right to freedom of the press. Actually, a good deal of Obamacare constitutes an infringement of our right to health care, as its taxes make it harder to acquire medical devices, and its regulation will shutter physician-owned hospitals.

The “ObamaNations” said that they were going to attack their critics at any town hall meetings. Kind of funny how the media missed that.

They are hard wired to love 0bama. It is something I have never seen before. It would not matter what he inflicts upon them, there’s just no reasoning with them. They vote as selfish children, interested only in receiving what is promised to them. And when whatever is promised to them is not delivered, they don’t seem to mind. There’s always another excuse...”he needs more time”...”it is foolish to expect such a magnificent program to be rolled out without any glitches”...”if only the Republicans wouldn’t resist him at every turn”. And on and on and on. I just don’t get it.

If hussein didn’t think it would be bad for America why is he delaying it? Of course it is a disaster for our freedom, health, and economy. If hussein did let it go jnto effect (more) it would completely tank the economy right before the elections and he would have to deal with a GOP controlled congress.

Obama obvious believes that Obamacare is bad for Congresscritters, their families and their staffs.

Hey, Glenn Beck, do something about your damn website (The Blaze). I'd love to read the stories there and pass them along to others so that they can be aware of what's going on, but I get so many pop-ups, ads, and just such a "carnival side-show" feel on that website, that I just regret it every time I click through to try and read a story.

OK. I'm taking the gloves off.

Obama wants to kill babies.

Because he does.

Once they get all the administrative bugs worked out, the surgeon general will release a report that claims smoking is healthy and life extending. Then they'll force fines on non-smokers.

Webster attempted to explain his reasoning, saying there have been many changes to the Affordable Care Act that the House and Senate have been passing

Geez! Why didn't he simply ask them why, if the pResident thought it was SO great, did he exempt himself from it?

Simple people require simple explanations.

“I believe that Obamacare is bad for America … and so does the president.”

This just needs to be repeated a few dozen more times. Watch the left and learn.
