I don’t think it matters. Only those already kneeling at the Obama alter will hear it, for the rest if us it will be like the sound of a tree falling in a distant forest. Zzzzzzzzz

Notice how the word “Obamacare” is being carefully replaced with “ACA”, even in a seemingly negative article? Even RINO’s are referring to it as the ACA... Delinking Obama from his signature legislation, in order to save his bacon, ya think?

That horse is well clear of the barn. Too late for them to shut the door now. "You cannot unring a bell."

Hoyer cracked me up in a story yesterday. He was asked if calling it the Affordable Care Act is going to work as a rebranding, he said the Affordable Care Act doesn't need "rebranding," because "Affordable Care Act" is a perfectly fine name for it.

I’m not sure it’s going to help them changing the name to Affordable Care Act. Watters (sp) did some ‘man on the street interviews’ on a BOR show about a month ago.

He asked people if they preferred Obamacare or Affordable Healthcare Act - -many (obviously LIVs) said the Affordable one (I can only suspect that there had been enough bad news about Obamacare at the time, they chose the other). Only a couple of people knew it was the same thing. If they start referring to it as Affordable Care, maybe even the LIVs will get a clue what it’s doing to them, the economy and the country. Of course, some won’t care because Obama is giving them “free” healthcare to go with their free Obama phones.

Here’s the deal: If the insurers are paid more than they’re owed, they keep the difference, but if they are paid less, they get the difference.

Taxpayers are screwed yet again.

Fact is, Zero is not appearing on any ballot, going forward.

I wouldn't be so sure of that.

If he decided to ignore Amendment XXII and announce that he's running for a 3rd term, who would stop him?

I watched the implosion of the Liberals with glee. There was a cartoon of a campaign bus being chased by police rather than led by them which foretold then end no matter what Canadian media tried to portray.

I expect to see something to that effect in the US soon.

“It was designed to fail in each of its parts”, I disagree. Knowing progressives and recognizing a bit of history repeated from FDR’s equal failed “Professorial” attempted reign, I say the dems when faced with their “Full House” (dem House, dem Senate and dem POTUS) began a glazed over gaze at their Socialist Nirvana and quickly cobbled together that old wrinkled pile of socialist notes as fast as they could. So what if it had to “pass so we can know what’s in it”. They envisioned dem progressive control unchallenged far into the future with little concern with the details, smoothness or beauty of their Frankenstein monster.

Now, like when FDR’s fantasy began to crumble, they are faced with reality without a clue on any way to fix Franky with the cute bolt through his neck and as good progressives retreat into fantasy hoping the low info “Santa” voters will remain equally blind.

I say the dem progressives assumed the ChiCom’s fake mixture of capitalism and communism was doable here, with real fixes to Franky put-off-able.

Re: post 5————it’s Donkeycare. Obama was not around in 1994 when Hillary and the Rats were pushing the same scheme.

Therefore, his Act should be renamed DemocratCare, or 'Ratcare for short.

People are signing up but the website isn't getting the payment info to the selective insurance carriers.

Ergo, the best new name is obvious.

ZEROCARE.

AND here's a look at the waiting area for the new 'free' healthcare.

But why even risk an election ?

No risk at all. He’ll just crank up the ol’ ACORN fraud machine.

Unfortunately, I don't think there's a Gen. Pinochet in our future: Zero's been busy conducting a quiet purge of military brass who probably wouldn't toe the line if asked to fire on American citizens. He's not going to make the same mistake that Allende made.

IMO, that's probably the real reason why Petraeus was kicked upstairs to head the CIA and later sacked.
