Why is "Obamacare" such a loaded word?
   
The only time a phrase like that is used, it's coming from the right. What is it about that phrasing that makes it seem like a bad thing that people are using to defeat reform?

Maybe because it is a bad thing.

1. Pssst...use "Teddycare"
   
It's a winner. Resonates with the feeble minded.

I can't argue with that it certainly does resonate with you dip shits.

Obama is black. The anti-reform corporations want to make sure and hit all the hot button of the willfully ignorant racists they use so easily.

19. They want to tie this bill to Obama...
   
so when they make it fail, it reflects on Obama.

Yeah god forbid we attach this to the guy who is the biggest cheerleader of it.  :whatever:

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.
