DUmmies Support Partial ObamaCare Repeal
In a strange political twist, many DUmmies now FAVOR the repeal of ObamaCare. Not because it would be a major factor in strangling the American economy but because it is NOT a single payer aka socialized medicine program. Of course, the DUmmies are too STUPID to realize that the REAL purpose of ObamaCare is to FAIL so that the government would have to step in and flat out take over the American healthcare system in total. Since many DUmmies are clueless as to the real goal of ObamaCare, many now favor replacing it with the "public option" as you can see in this THREAD, "CNN poll: Half favor repealing health care law. Which is why we should compromise and repeal the mandate." Unfortunately for the DUmmies, repealing just the mandate will be VETOED by Obama which means that the ObamaCare fiasco will continue to poison the political well for the Democrats going into the 2012 elections. So let us now watch the DUmmies screaming for at least partial ObamaCare repeal in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, kicking off this DUFU edition with a "REPEAL OBAMACARE!" song written by our own Charles Henrickson based on a suggestion by Yours Truly, is in the [barackets]:
REPEAL OBAMACARE!
Tune: "Marion" ("Rejoice, O Pilgrim Throng")
Repeal Obamacare!
Repeal, reject, undo!
Declare it dead and pull the plug,
Before the bill comes due.
Repeal! Repeal!
Repeal Obamacare!
The bill Obama signed
Would take a year to read,
But Nancy rammed it down our throats,
And so did Harry Reid.
Repeal! Repeal!
Repeal Obamacare!
Now watch our health care costs
Rise high and higher still;
Obama spreads the wealth around
And makes us pay the bill.
Repeal! Repeal!
Repeal Obamacare!
Repeal, and do not fear
Obama's veto pen;
And when he sends back what we pass,
We'll pass it once again.
Repeal! Repeal!
Repeal Obamacare!
Repeal Obamacare!
Repeal, reject, undo!
And come November 2012,
Repeal Obama too!
Repeal! Repeal!
Repeal Obamacare!
"CNN poll: Half favor repealing health care law. Which is why we should compromise and repeal the mandate.
[Just the mandate? Don't be shy. Repeal it ALL.]
The real problem is with the mandate that shovels trillions into insurance company coffers that they will use to crush the good elements of the bill.
[The real problem is that you are too clueless to figure out that the goal of ObamaCare is to break the private insurance companies which will have to be replaced by You-Know-Who.]
By coming out and fighting against the mandate (which has been ruled unconstitutional), we will get ourselves back on the side of the majority on this issue - and win over some independents and even a few tea baggers.
[Great way to win them over...by calling them "teabaggers." Diplomacy DUmmie style.]
If we can succeed in eliminating the mandate, it will put Medicare for All or a public option back on the table, as we claw back big insurance profits.
[Public Option aka Socialized Medicine run by the government.]
The mandate is ONLY important to for-profit insurance corporations. A mandate would only make sense in a single payer nonprofit system
[May I mark you down as FOR Repeal?]
The current HRC bill provides for some back door openings to non-profit co-operatives. Between those, and individual states experimenting, a form of single payer may take hold yet. I certainly hope so.
[Thank you for admitting what the TRUE GOAL of ObamaCare is...A back door method leading to single payer aka socialized medicine.]
Dump the Mandate
[DUmp ObamaCare.]
And they arrested the Single Payer advocates
[Alan Grayson is currently residing in Gitmo.]
Except that forcing people to buy a consumer product is unconstitutional
[And since despite writing over 2000 pages of ObamaCare, the liberals overlooked including a simple severance clause which means if ANY part of ObamaCare is declared unconstitutional, the whole thing goes down the tubes. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!]
Dealing with the system we have means preventing the repubs from repealing the whole bill, a compromise by getting rid of the mandate is the best way to achieve this, otherwise, we may have obama compromise away parts of the bill that are good.
[Obama would VETO repealing just the mandate. Face it DUmmies, you have to continue swallowing that ObamaCare poison pill for years to come.]
Obama and the alleged Democrats in Congress are the ones who have tied us to a system of insurance with no guarantee of care.
[Knock out the word "alleged" and I would have to declare you to be a LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
We couldn't even get a watered-down public option passed when we had large Democratic majorities in the House and Senate. What makes you think it would have a chance now?
[DUmmie Delusion can conjure up any improbable scenario.]
No matter how you spin the name it is still a government mandate and would require a HUGE tax increase to implement and keep going.
[I'm going out on a limb here and declaring you to be a LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]
The whole plan will collapse without the mandate because the rates will skyrocket if people can stay out of the program until they need it. It won't put Medicare for All back on the table. It will just destroy any chance of this plan working, and the Rethugs will say "we told you so."
[We told you so.]
And the mandate doesn't require anyone to buy insurance.
It only requires them to pay an excise tax which they won't have to pay if they can show they have insurance.
[The next DUmmie wants you to clam up about calling it a tax.]
You're not supposed to call it a tax.. because that would mean the President has broken his promise not to raise taxes on anyone making under $250K.
[GASP! Obama would break a promise? I'm shocked, SHOCKED!!!]
in our country we're not going to get rid of private insurers in one fell swoop. it will never happen. the only way we'll get single payer is over time.
[Shhhh! Don't say too loudly in public what the TRUE GOAL of ObamaCare is.]
It is not a mandate, it is a tax. Big difference. The mandate is like allowing a private company tax the people. Bad idea.
[But...but Obama promised us that it was NOT a tax.]

I truly wish every single person who opines on this issue was forced to actually live and work in a country with socialized health care for at least a couple years.
I have. And it was eye-opening to say the least.
Most people have absolutely no idea what they're asking for. They see the benefits but ignore the costs.
When they find themselves waiting a DECADE for procedures that are routine in the United States and already covered by most insurance plans, they'll understand their folly.
I've seen people with compound fractures sit in a waiting room for 6 hours. And this was Scotland - not some Third World hellhole.
Socialized medicine is fine - until you get really sick or really injured.
Try waiting years for dialysis or diabetes medication. That is the reality.
Hell, you don't even need to live abroad. Just get online and find a Canadian discussion of healthcare.
Note the real plusses and minuses.
And, of course, notice where they all go for medical care when its actually something important.
"It only requires them to pay an excise tax..."
That's a pretty unique form of excise tax...normally excise taxes are paid on the transfer of a thing of value, not on the decision to refrain from engaging in the transaction in the first place.
A die hard liberal I know lived in Spain for a couple of years and after an injury got to experience their wonderful socialized medicine.
She begrudgingly admits that it is just like going to the DMV. With doctors who act just like DMV employees.
Everything the left dreams up resides on some sort of false premise and a false promise.
Free Health Care saving the country billions being the perfect example of both.
Johnny 5 is alive
Prior to Obamacare,in the US even the uninsured had access to some quality care. We had ER's that do not turn people away for lack of insurance, we had medicaid, public health clinics, women and infants care, a whole slew of programs for people who couldn't afford insurance. Hospitals themselves had uncompensated care programs. In some places people with no insurance had better access than those of us who were stuck with insurance, HMO's, and restrictions. Before we tried to fix health care we really needed to first identify the problems that needed fixing. We didn't, we plunged right into hyperbole and rhetoric.
What?
No Troglatard comments rebutting JK's comment?
Bueller?
Olbermanns's out. Gotta be a new DF feature coming soon.
Tim Conway Jr. - "YeaAAAah!"
"When they find themselves waiting a DECADE for procedures that are routine in the United States and already covered by most insurance plans, they'll understand their folly." JK
A decade? And this is in Scotland? Let me make sure I understand you...People wait a DECADE for certain treatments in Scotland that are readily available and covered in the US? Is that what you're saying?
Be careful.
"People wait a DECADE for certain treatments in Scotland that are readily available and covered in the US? Is that what you're saying?"
Yes. you paste eating moh-ron.
My wife left Great Britain a long time ago, and one of the main reasins was the socialized medicine over there.
And beleive me, she just RAILS at the thought of the same kind of medical system here in the States.
Socialized medicine: all the effiency of the USPS, all the compassion of the IRS.
reasons.....
BAD FINGERS! BAD!
Hey, Lazarus, stupid, it's REASONS, and why would anyone rail against superior, FREE health care?
But then again your feminazi wife probably likes degradation and abuse, after all, she's married to a right-wing butthead.
Why can't you stupid DittoNazis spell?
LOL, here's to hoping that Triple bypass operation you fucked up cons will need because of your major anger issues will set back you and the feminazi (that is what you call your fat wives, isn't it?) oh, $100,000 or so.
LOL Maybe you, the missus, and your lazy, fat right-wing children will be out in the street.
Now THAT would be funny! Here's to socialized medicine, losers!
Oh, but you don't want the best for your family, you are right-wingers. ROFLOL
Oops, I left the nitrous oxide tank on. Sorry. (turns it off)
I see Anonymoron (10:35) is in dire need of free mental healthcare. I hope he/she gets it soon, before he/she shoots someone. You know those crazy-ass libs, they do get violent when they're off their meds.
