At least Republicans can make a point without having to use made up words.
Ahem....Really? They were the ones who created the word, "Obamacare" in case you ******* forgot.
LOL. Look who the bumpkin is.
Who Coined Obamacare - The Wire
House Democrats are
blocking their Republican colleagues from using Obamacare in letters mailed on the taxpayer's dime to voters, but who made up the term in the first place?
Lots of
people are
asking this
question, getting answers like "Certainly a republican, potentially Glenn Beck" and "I am about 80% sure it was Rush Limbaugh" and "Hillary Clinton's campaign coined Obamacare." Iowa Rep.
Steve King claimed President Obama himself made it up. Free Republic posters want to
claim credit. Lots of liberals suspect an
insidious plot by Fox News. But the answer appears to be: a lobbyist.
Jeanne Schulte Scott argued for the trade journal
Healthcare Financial Management in March 2007 that then-President Bush had "put all his eggs into his 'privatization' basket" in his 2007 State of the Union address; nevertheless, he made health care the "issue du jour" for the 2008 presidential race. "Health care is hot!" she wrote, and then made a prediction that seems so quaint given all that's passed in the last four-and-a-half years:
The many would-be candidates for president in 2008 are falling over themselves offering their own proposals. We will soon see a "Giuliani-care" and "Obama-care" to go along with "McCain-care," "Edwards-care," and a totally revamped and remodeled "Hillary-care" from the 1990s.
