Charlie Crist: God Bless’ Obama for Obamacare
National Review ^ | 03/09/2014 | Alec Torres

Posted on 03/10/2014 9:22:19 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Charlie Crist, the Republican-turned-Democrat running to reclaim the governorship of Florida, said that he doesn’t think the Affordable Care Act has “irreparably harmed” Floridians, and, in fact, “I think it’s been great.”

Crist called health care a “civil right,” saying, “People need to have shelter, they need food, they need water, they need health care, and they deserve it.”

When CNN’s Candy Crowley asked him about those who have undoubtedly lost their health care because of Obamacare, Crist said that’s “exactly why we have the Affordable Care Act. Exactly why is to make sure that they don’t lose it in the future.”

At two separate points in his interview, Crist said “God bless” the president for Obamacare.

Floridians dodged a bullet in 2010. Will they allow themselves to get hit this year?

I would kind of think saying something like that using God’s name in vain like that has got to be some form of blasphemy.

Yes, nothing like the magic of impeccable logic. If cancer causes me to lose my life then by God I want more cancer in the future because I want to live.

“But what about people who have lost insurance due to Obamacare”

“That’s why we have Obamacare- to make sure they don’t lose it again”

Great. So Crist wants to do for our food supply what Ubama has done for our accessibility to health care.

Fine. So long as they don't get around to thinking our access to toilet paper is a Civil Right.

Yes, it’s blasphemy. The whole commandment reads like this:
Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

— Exodus 20:7; Deuteronomy 5:11
The word translated “in vain” (Hebrew shav) is described thus in Strong’s Dictionary:
from the same as “show” (or “shoah”) in the sense of desolating; evil (as destructive), literally (ruin) or morally (especially guile); figuratively idolatry (as false, subjective), uselessness (as deceptive, objective; also adverbially, in vain):—false(-ly), lie, lying, vain, vanity.
It is a strong and unambiguous injunction against misuse of God’s name.

Actually, old Charlie might be correct .....”God bless Obamacare” .... for waking up many of the sheeple and causing enough of an adverse reaction to possibly result in a passle of Republican wins during the midterms. We’ll see how it all works out.

As if the world doesn’t have enough sleazy, ass kissing politicians who love Obama. Charley wants to be the sparkling, cherry on top.

Since “Crist” is a modification of “Christ”, then Charlie really needs to change that to reflect the one he really supports.

That is really Alice in Wonderland Mad Hatter stuff. Kind of like a spoof survey taken by a TV show (Leno?) that gave people the choice between Obamacare and the ACA.
