Of course, when American realize that they pay for something they don't get for four years...
David Frum, the Canadian born political strategist responsible for Republican electoral successes during the Bush era believes that the fanatical partisan opposition to the Obama health care bill has backfired badly on the Republican Party. By putting their every effort into defeating the bill and refusing to compromise on any aspect of the bill the Republicans have ended up with "an abject and irreversible defeat."
Apparently Republicans have been so badly embarrassed by Mr. Frum's analysis that he has been fired from the right-wing think tank he worked for. So much for freedom of speech.
Even the Democrats, who are famous for pi$$ing on the opinion of Americans in the majority (as amply proven by the passing of this bill, achieved by bribes, threats and buy-offs) would not dare to try to roll back the retirement age to 79.
hehe roll back to age 79... I goofed I had to check the requirements which went from 55 to this requirement according to the www.ssa.gov website.
This passing couldn't have proven more beneficial for the Republicans, the Dems are tanking in the polls as a result of pushing this through, the Republicans couldn't have asked for a better result...weak legislation and deep public resentment..
Here is a fellow who I'm sure voted for healthcare because he carefully thought it through and didn't just do as the Bamster told him.Here
Of course, when American realize that they pay for something they don't get for four years, it will be crushing defeat for Democrats.
Not to mention the FACT that the Supreme Court of the United States WILLdeclare this encroachment on States' rights as totally unconstiutional.
It is to be hoped, however, that the Supreme Court will be making that decision before it is loaded up with Obama puppets like Sotomayer.
