Well..........considering that almost every Republican president since Nixon has been pushing for healthcare, I'd say this...........
I guess it takes a Democrat to get stuff done. Remember getting Bin Laden? Jr. never could in 7 years, and Obama does it in 2.
Republican presidents never passed a health care bill, even though they campaigned on it.
Obama did it in 1.
And it was so deeply unpopular that it cost him not only his super majority in the Senate and House--he would not have passed it without that--but it cost him control of the House. When you think of all the truly great things he could have accomplished for this country with that super majority, it is unfortunate that he squandered it on an ineffective, inefficient, and unsustainable 'health care reform'. They have already had to issue hundreds of waivers exempting friends and supporters from the law including the State of Nevada (Harry Reid) and lately the huge lion's share of waivers have been going to Nancy Pelosi's district in California.
How gullible can the Obama supporters continue to be when you look at the big picture here?
Healthcare is one of the biggest legislative accomplishments of our generation. Far from perfect, it represents the tradeoffs required to get our legislative process to work. As usual, Republicans did nothing to assist Americans in need and did everything in their power to spread misinformation and delay the process.
Healthcare has not failed. In fact, it is just getting started. Millions of Americans will be provided the oportunity to purchase affordable healthcare once it is fully implemented.
Do you mainline the koolaid?
