Who else thinks "Obamacare" is a perjorative term?
   
I believe the term originated with wingnuts who intended it to be synonymous with what they viewed as the flawed and expensive "socialist" healthcare plan pushed by the President and his party.

I've heard it used by supposedly objective commentators and I've read in posts on this board. I also heard it said several times with sarcastic and mocking emphasis last evening by Sharon Angle during the debate.

I don't think "we" should be using this term anymore than we should talk about the "Democrat" party.

Well Barry did go around selling this program even after it was passed.
So just like the George Foreman Grill was probably not actually invented by him it bears his name because he is selling it. Barry put his name on this and he has to live with it.

9. Of course it is.
   
All the right does is mock and ridicule. They're like children.

Pot calling the kettle black.

am really tired of hearing political ads Demonizing "government run health care". Its so sad that people can only think of themselves, and never about anyone else.

yeah those pesky facts get in the way of selling a defective product.

It's meant to be associated with "that socialist n*****r".

Yep if only Barry was white then we would love all his policies.  :banghead:

I love that this gets under their skin.  It's such a silly thing to get upset about.  As far as name-calling goes, you can call me a teabagger all day long because all it does is make you look stupid... it doesn't hurt me one bit.

I'm done denying it. I know it's not true but, why bother arguing with those idiots about it? I will just be sarcastic and say you are right from now on.  :-)

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Your agony would be sad if not posted at a website that has dozens of treads running around the clock bemoaning what someone else as and/or demanding it be given to them.
