Safe to assume we weren't meant to find out?

In 2009, Michael Steele, then chairman of the Republican National Committee (RNC,) called President Barack Obama’s plan to overhaul health care “socialism,” at a National Press Club event.

Mr. Steele obviously was not aware of the fact that his very own party- the GOP helped Iraqi lawmakers to draft and pass their constitution with a single-payer guaranteed healthcare system for all Iraqis, in 2005.

Article 31 of the Iraqi Constitution, drafted by the Bush administration in 2005 and ratified by the Iraqi people, includes state-guaranteed (single payer) healthcare for life for every Iraqi citizen.

Article 31 also states that healthcare is a “right.” Contrary to this Article, GOP Senator from Kentucky Rand Paul called the right to healthcare a form of “slavery” at a hearing of the Senate HELP Subcommittee on Primary Health and Aging.


Prior to, during and after the final Supreme Court decision upholding The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), aka Obamacare, the GOP has resisted the entire idea with all its might, continuously claiming to do everything in their power to overturn the law.

Well, if that's not just at the top of the list of things that make you go hmm. Or - what? Could it be that when things are fair and just, we get what the Iraqis get, but when they're trying to protect corporate lobbyists, we get diddly.

Barry Hussein's 3,000 page monstrosity is longer than the US Constitution not to mention Iraq's liberation bill. At least the Iraqi people knew what they were voting for when they went to the polls. When the former Speaker of the House was asked about the "health care bill" she said we would have to pass it to find out what is in it. Democrats managed to get it passed and we still don't know what is in the law that is as long as most novels and contains as much fiction.

And the Iraqi's got free healthcare will we were at war there.

During WWII the interned American Japanese had free healthcare, 3 meals a day.
Many uninterned US citizens went without.
Who was better off?
Was it fair?
Do you think the US should not have gotten involved in the polio vaccinations of the "50's till the disease was erraticated?
