Destroying our health care system? Yes. Big price for that.
2012 — Zero leaves and Republicans (real ones, not RINOs) control Congress and the White House.

"I couldn't get the kind of cooperation from Republicans that I had hoped for," he said. "And that was costly, partly because it created the kind of partisanship and bickering that really turn people off."
The bickering was within your own camp - that's why Ben Nelson got bribed to vote along with this fiasco. et. al. The Republicans were ignored and kept out of it - and are now getting blamed? What a joke.

I couldn't get the kind of cooperation from Republicans that I had hoped for... What a liar. The Republicans were shut out of every meeting. 60 Minutes is just giving Obama a platform for revisionist history. I wonder if 60 Minutes will give the Republicans an opportunity to rebut. (HA!)

He Does Not Get It.
This isn’t about political capital. This is about him pushing an agenda that ALMOST ALL OF AMERICA DID NOT WANT.
It was a clear attempt to expand the size and reach of Government through a labyrinthine proposal that even the authors didn’t understand.
His answers about “it was too costly” are the simple words of a simpleton who can’t see that everyone else can see through him.

“actually a little more costly than we expected, politically,” - Obama
No Sh*t sherlock.
Not like Rham didn’t warn you. But you are so whipped by your wife and her BFF Valerie you can’t squat without their permission.
Man, just when I was certain NOTHING could be worse than Jimmah Caaartar... along comes Barry Soetoro to redefine incompetent.

Thanks truthandlife.
said the health care system itself is huge and complicated and that changing it eluded previous presidents because it was so difficult
Yeah, that's the reason, you ignorant, arrogant dolt.

"I made the decision to go ahead and do it, and it proved as costly politically as we expected probably actually a little more costly than we expected, politically," he said. Getting crowded under that bus o' yours, isn't it, Mr. President?

"I am constantly reminded that we have been through worse times than these, and we've always come out on top," he said. "And I'm positive that the same thing is going to happen this time."Yes we will, just as soon as we get the clown occupying the Oval Office out and someone in who cares more about the country than implementing a carbon copy of the failed Soviet Union.

Another doubtful statement form Obama - this guy and his ilk seem to want Socialism more than his own (impostor) presidency.

Telling your “enemies” to “get in the back seat” while you can “shove it down their throats” creates problems. He’s a collosal jackass.

This election is only the downpayment on a ton of payback. Obozo and the Dems will look at this past week with fondness.
