Healthcare plan is working despite the efforts by the Obama haters

For some time I’ve wondered just how successful the Affordable Care Act would have been — how many more uninsured people it would have helped already — if certain powerful politicians loved this country more than they hated its president.

I don’t use the word “hate” loosely or hyperbolically.

I honestly believe that the feelings certain Washington and state “leaders” have toward President Barack Obama go far beyond simply despising or resenting him. Hate, therefore, seems to be the appropriate word.

Yet, despite that barrage of opposition on practically everything the president attempts to do for the betterment of this country and its people, Obama continues to forge ahead, as he did on the economy and now with healthcare.

They simply cant handle a black man in the white house who rejects what they think is the American way yet is stilll able to succeed. Reminds me of the scene from 12 years a slave where the dumb asshole white foreman is bested by the smart slave from NY.

to those who "hate" Obamacare. they'd rather cut off their nose than have it help them. We're talking deep deep brainwashing.. possibly no return.
