Healthcare Reform

Governing based on hatred and spite is not sustainable in a democracy...especially when that hatred is aimed at the majority of voters.

We've compiled a variety of scenes from movies that might help explain to the GOP where they really are and how their actions are sealing their fate.

Just as Republicans insisted that the 2012 polls were all wrong and Mitt Romney would win by a landslide, Republicans today are blindly and overwhelmingly confident that the Democrats and Obama will bend to their will and the country will see them as heroes...and they'll be just as right as they were on Romney.

The polls on the ACA are misleading. Many Americans have been impacted in their opinion of the term "Obamacare" but when you look at the numbers, a majority supports all that it provides and many want it to go even farther.

It is quite a challenge to sift through all the intentionally created myths about the Affordable Care Act to come up with The Top Five but these sure seem to be the top contenders.

The GOP should have loved it. It was their plan. So....why did the ACA become a horrible, socialist government takeover of healthcare for them? Six words..."Black Democratic President Obama Supported It".

Boehner may be counting on the pressure from the public and the business community to push his party back from the edge but he is now standing with the extremists in his party like a battered wife.

thinking Republicans are under the same kind of "tyranny of the minority" as Democrats are in the Senate by Republicans. That small but big-enough contingent of Tea Partiers in The House are in a position to block any bill including the CR that will keep government working.

It was a no-brainer (or as known in Republican circles, a "Gohmert") for Republicans to vote against background checks, an assault weapons ban and a gun magazine limit. And it was just as easy for them to be "outraged" by the deaths of four Americans in Benghazi. Only If deaths help them politically, do they matter.

President Obama has indeed brought bipartisanship to Washington DC...in a chorus against change.
