Rick Perry's Praise of HillaryCare

[dblack]

Thats an interesting assessment. It's early though; Perry has only been in for a couple of weeks. He looks like the flavor of the month. The more his numerous flip flops are brought to light, the deficits he's run up, the sorry ranking of Texas in a number of categories, you may see a "Rom-nif-ication" of Perry.

Why would we see that. Are you suggesting Romney is any better?

Perry gets a pass on this from the Right and Romney doesn't because Romney belongs to the wrong cult.

what was hillary's plan in 1993?

Interestingly, it had a much stricter individual mandate than the ACA. Namely, it was a real mandate. None of this "buy an insurance plan, or go uninsured and pay a modest fine" stuff, Clinton's legislation required everyone to be enrolled in and paying premiums toward a health plan and it didn't allow folks to disenroll from a health insurance plan until they were enrolled in another one or hit 65 and transitioned to Medicare. There was no way out under that proposal.

so obama settled for half a loaf, and, we saw how far Hillary got.

Doesn't matter.

Byrd never left the KKK because he was a Democrat.

Once you become a Republican, soliciting gay sex in a bathroom with a cop is so yesterday the day after it happens.

So true!

Certainly not; simply suggesting to you and the readers that Romney is a known quantity and has been in the ring during this election season as well as 2008. The boxer who has been in the ring is never as pretty as the sparing gym fly who has barely entered the contest.

When the GOP rank and file begins to realize that he was once a Democrat, once a Gore campaign manager, was a proponent of Hillary-care, was at least infatuated with the idea of secession, issued and executive order to mandate that all 12 year old girls get injected against the HPV, is for the Trans-Texas corridor, supports then denounces gay marriage....in short--just another wavering politician--I can see him being treated just as Romney has been treated thus far; nothing special.
