First, the idiotic shutdown and national debt threats took attention away from the website calamity.

Now the website calamity is taking attention away from horrendous premiums and shitty coverage.

When the whole mess becomes known, there will be tremendous pressure for a full socialized system.

That's all terrible for the democrats, but the crazies on our side will probably bail them out by simply sounding crazy.

Nope. Socialized medicine, even to the limited extent of this "reform", is an abomination.

But to most people, defaulting on the national debt as a political tactic sounds very crazy.

With approximately $250B coming in each month and a current debt service of about $20 to $30B, how exactly does one default on the national debt?

I agree with you, GB. Not with the MSM carrying obumbles water for him. That was stupidity if you ask me. The GOP should have looked for some real spending cuts and let obumbles care fail all on it's own. They was never gonna win on that. Sometimes you just gotta do a tactical retreat in order to win the war.

If you don't stand on principle, you'll fall for anything. Even people on the left have said they now agree with Cruz even if they don't like his tactics. As time goes on, he'll be proved right. He and a few others (and not just politicians) managed to rise above the fray. They never lost their cool, they weren't even called racist with the usual zeal. He even made 0bama going on defense. I'm sick to death of us never standing up on principle. This same argument that's made about 0bamacare was made about part D. It's still a mess and it's still here. I can't think of one entitlement that's ever been cancelled. It's going to fall anyway. People will remember that not everyone did the whole "go along to get along" strategy that always fails.

Everyone on both sides, with the exception of a few are forgetting the mood of the country and that almost 90% think we're going in the wrong direction. That is more important than anything. It's not getting any better. I've seen this before. And the left is severely overplaying their hand. Their language lately, the way they talk, calling half the country terrorists, etc. will get them in trouble. People will look for someone who's unafraid. At least we have a few who will do that now. Following the "recommended" course the press, the left and the RINOs tell us we should go hasn't ever worked but we keep doing it over and over again. I believe that's the definition of insanity.

You have fallen prey to the leftist bastardization of language, which serves their ends.

Health care/medical care in the United States is not a "system". A system is an organizational model consisting of one "whole" of connected elements, which can be controlled from a single point. If it can't be controlled, it is not part of the system.

Health care is several marketplaces, some of which connect or abut others. Those marketplaces are subject to the law of supply and demand, just as any other marketplace. The government is attempting to control those marketplaces. That attempt to control medical care is fascistic, by definition. The next step is socializing the medical marketplaces.

I haven't fallen for shit.  The "system" I was referring to is O'bummer care not what we had before, which has often been referred to as the best "system" in the world.

What or who will Obama blame for the disaster of Obama's cACA HellCare?

Because until something goes right you can be your last dollar that it won't be Obama. The media is riding to the rescue saying that Obama should get mad at his own management of the situation....I mean someone else. Look for some BP oil spill tough guyness and a "Whose ass do I kick" bravado from the petty man child.

You know you in over your head when you cannot even implement your own disastrous policies. The horrendous roll out under Obama's management is just more proof that King Barky the Incompetent should have never risen farther than dog catcher.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

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.

Mark Stein was in for Rush today and there was this idiot arguing that because of imminent domain the government owns and can take anything they want anyway as an argument for socialized medicine.

The guy started out saying everyone has to buy car insurance so health insurance should be the same. It was a perfect opportunity for Stein to point out that everyone doesn't have to buy car insurance and that among those that do, high risk drivers pay more in premiums because low risk drivers shouldn't have to subsidise high risk ones.

The left always brings up "general welfare" as the reason for everything they want to socialize. Maybe the founders should have explained it so a 4 year old could understand it.

They did make it so a four year old could understand it, the typical leftist functions on a two year old level, so they can't understand it.
