When the Pelosi-Reid-Obama troika triumphantly celebrated cramming through the ACA (Affordable Care Act) over majority sentiment, they crowed that this was the president's signature achievement and ACA soon took on the name of its creator, ObamaCare. Though not one of them, nor any of the Democrats in the Senate who voted it into law uni-partisanly had read it, they all assured us that we'd grow to really, really like it. Boy, were they wrong.
We've paid almost a billion dollars to a Canadian firm whose vice-president is a college buddy of Michelle Obama's from their black radical days at Princeton to create a webpage to enroll people mandated by this law to do so, Obama having turned down the U.S. firm IBM's offer to create it for free. It doesn't work. Moreover, the continuing problems with this webpage -- and law -- are so substantial and intractable that the White House propaganda machine has stopped referring to it as ObamaCare or even the Affordable Care Act. Everyone now knows that for most people, the plan loaded with mandated coverage to curry favors with privileged tranches of voters like college girls who want free contraceptives and abortion coverage and to permit anyone to sign up after they found out they need costly care, not before, is far more expensive than what they were previously paying for medical insurance. It's some kind of no-name thing. Either that or, to be an honest descriptor, we could call it the UFA (Unaffordable Care Act). Under any name it's dramatically swamping the president and his party's standing among voters.
Younger voters who passionately supported the president in both election shots are running away from UFA, a law which depends on them to foot a disproportionate share of the financial burden:

The fact that this president has given a pass to some and changed the 'law' for others makes Obamacare Null & Void.....the Congress and Senate should repeal it entirely on those questionable constitutional merits and lawlessness alone.
Don't worry about Barry. He already has military helicopters assigned to get his ass and Bo's off the ship before it goes down.
Maybe if McConnell is made an example, the remaining "leadership" will stand up and get with the program of governing FOR the people.
We are in complete agreement. As long as Obamacare is the law, he wins.
LOL, that one guy on the left of the pic looks like he is carrying Pelosi’s purse (closer examination shows he is not, but it makes a good story).
“’I’m really good at killing people’ - book claims Obama told aides”
IBM would have built the website for free? There should be a hanging over this fiasco.
I disagree, to the strident left he didn't go far enough, fast enough.. In their warped minds Obama is a failure because we don't have socialized medical care right now.

Nasty, angry German Shepards.
This HAS TO BE the most nauseating picture ever taken in the 100 odd year history of photography!!!!
It should be banned from FR permanently!
It’s the Ur F’d Act.
My mistake. You're correct.
Right now they are winning just like Charlie Sheen was winning.
Perhaps the author was trying to name it something similar to “uffa”, the Italian expression for frustration, annoyance, disgust ... or just simply, phew!
That's why you will have to beat them like a rented mule.
That's fine. Trust the TEApublicans instead.
If they fizzle out, get new ones.
