When will democrats get the message: Obamacare is a nightmare that won't work. Stop being stubborn just because you don't want to embarrass your fuhrer.

RE: Home Depot drops insurance for 20,000 employees.
If Elected Democrats in moderate districts or States joined with Republicans
and explained to their voters that Obamacare is killing jobs, and employed
people are losing their insurance, and defunded this they would be a lock to get elected again.

RE: Home Depot drops insurance for 20,000 employees.
The world renowned Cleveland Clinic has announced it is eliminating 3,000 jobs. Stated reason? Obamacare. Not "cause they want to", not cause they're "greedy". It 's the freaking Cleveland Clinic for God's sake...
At what point can those left out on that drooping limb finally admit this thing is fatally flawed and offer to work in a bipartisan fashion to fix this train wreck?
Anytime you have a massive piece of legislation that encourages the creation of jobs, or cutting back existing jobs, that will intentionally be limited to 29.5 hours, Houston, we have a problem.
But, who cares. Saving face for the petulant one is more important to some.

Obamacare is LAW...passed by the House...passed by the Senate...upheld by the Supreme Court.
Stop with the silly repeals...it's law...it's not going anywhere.

The left never stopped trying to repeal gay marriage laws, DOMA, and a bunch of other stuff. Why does backing down only apply to the right?

Hell, if the president can pick and choose when and for whom they get enacted, why the hell can't congress repeal it?
You realize that is something they can do, right?

Why try when the Senate will block it every single time? Waste of time/money
You would think after 40 times they would get the hint.

Listen bro, every poll out there shows the majority of American people do not want Obamacare and the numbers get worse for Obama on this almost daily. This is such a bad idea that even some of Obama's defenders and staunchest supporters say it's flawed. So why is he so god damned reluctant to change it? He can give waivers to unions, big business, and politicians, but none to anyone else. Why? I'll tell you why; this ****** is willing to screw the entire country for decades to come in order to save face over a law he probably didn't read before he signed it.

I seem to remember the Supreme Court overturning the Jim Crow laws...I also seem to remember the Supreme Court upholding ObamaCare.
As for Prohibition...it was passed in 1919 gone by the 30s...I don't get the connection to ObamaCare.

How could one not get the connection? Both are/were laws. One was overturned, the other can be as well.
