ObamaCare – How’s it Working Out For You?

As the majority of Americans fume over both the ObamaCare legislative process and its content, Obama’s approval rating dropped to 43% and polling indicates that most folks don’t understand what it is or how it will work or who or how it will be paid for.
-
But who cares? The 2200 pages of incomprehensible verbiage that no one person fathoms is now the law of the land that we will live with and pay for forever.
-
The American people put Pelosi and her team in charge of Congress, The American people put Reid in charge of the Senate, and The American people put Obama in the White House. They didn’t get there via a coup, they were all voted in.
Get used to it! Sweat dries, blood clots and bones heal – suck it up!
-
Even the anti-abortion Democrats went down the tubes as taxpayer money for abortions is now the law of the land. Oh yes, Obama signed a letter-to-file saying it won’t happen but that doesn’t nullify the law; and where is that letter again?
-
The coup de gras (that’s the compassionate shot to the head) for most folks was the revelation that the beloved and respected IRS will be the primary government agency that Americans will be dealing with on their ObamaCare compliance. What a joy!
All the enthusiastic young folks who have not yet worked for a living are in for a major wakeup call. Unfortunately I will be long gone and won’t be here to see the voter-remorse and say the obligatory “I told you so”.
-
Tea party folks are mad as hell and aren’t going to take it anymore. They will probably create enough confusion and misdirection that will probably help most of the Democrats that voted for ObamaCare get reelected, thereby validating the deal.
-
Even CNN, a bastion of liberal media, expressed outrage over the Congressional process and gross misconduct in passing this totally partisan bill.
Click for PC-video, sound ON, takes time to load – but well worth the wait:

Click for a youtube video (iPod vs ObamaPad) that every young person who will live by and pay for this program should watch. The venue is great; you have to go where they live!

The bottom line is that all this is not new; we have seen these things before. For you young folks a quick study would be to see Evita in “Don’t cry for me Argentina”.
