The republicans are sore losers and they are crying as little babies. With the urging from such people as rush limbaugh, sarah palin, glen beck and bachman they keep beating not only a dead horse bus one that has completely rotted and covered with maggots. The republican party is behind the times and they are very out of touch with who and what this country wants. Its shameful that they keep trying to destroy a wonderful beginning to public healthcare. The republicans should stop moaning and get rid of the tee hee hee party and get on track to making this a happier and HEALTHIER country.
If you all had your eyes open, it is both the demos and the repubs that are destroying this country!
The demos make everything a political football so can stay in power! The repubs stand up, arch their collective backs, point their collective fingers in the air, and say we will fight for the people, we will fight for what is right, we will fight for the Constitution, we will fight! Then they cave to only imagined pressure!
Then the Supremes (SCOTUS for some) somehow find words that just do not exist in any form in the Constitution and then make a new law to give the impression of, to satiate and satisfy the masses!
So what does all this mean? We simply have a very left leaning government that is trying to force all of this country to the left!
We now are becoming another Europe with the same people staying in power all the time! Kings, queens, potentates, and other egoists staying in power and forgetting we are not Europe, fact is we escaped from Europe I thought? Ya I know, there I go thinking again!
Now, where are the sore losers repubs?

And for the past six years the Republicans have whined about "Obamacare" and yet have failed to offer any alternatives to make sure that all Americans have access to health care - could it really be that they don't care (as many of them have said)?
I think with the abject total failure w/ Obamacare role out, and the total failure of Obama's failed presidency along w/ his failed foreign policy, and then add to that the constant indecision on Obama's part to be able to make clear conscious decisions on the home front as well w/ foreign policy, and the illusions his administration has perpetrated on the American people, and I do believe the repubs do have a real reason to be upset!
I'm not much in love w/ either party. Only and simply because both party's have sold me and mine out just once too often!
Obama's a failure as a president! And, Billary isn't much better either bubba! In the military, AWOL is a very bad thing and both Obama and Billary were AWOL on Benghazi on their watch!
Then they had the audacity to leave DC for personal reasons and let 4 Americans die! Then lied, straight faced about it to the American people about a video that was never even made!!! Ya, the repubs are upset.
Fact is, a whole lot of others are upset too! And, if you haven't figured it out yet I'm one of them too!

Thank you! Well stated, that is exactly the situation. These folks are so intent on loyalty to one party or the other they can't see that they are both the same.
How can it be 6 years when he has been in power for only 5?
Hm! I'll be derned! Someone agrees w/me! Hm, I'll be derned!!!
It's absolutely true that obomacare is a rotten stinking dead horse!
That much we can agree on! And the Idea that healthcare is an entitlement, that everyone is entitled to good heath care? Only those who have earned it! You have to earn your way through life! For those who have worked hard, educated themselves, and are productive citizens to be forced to support those who have made bad choices in life being too lazy to work and be productive is just plain communistic!!!
Amen brother!!! Well said indeed too!!! Short, precise and to the point! I'm not alone?
Unions! I've belonged to 3, and all any of them did for me was to take my money and run with it! Ya right, I think that unions have gone past anything good!
Little associations that negotiate their own contracts are good. For a union to be able to bring a company to its knees is another issue entirely!

True to form, they despise the plan they devised because it ain't the plan but it is the man.
