"The nightmare continues for America"
Alabama Republican Party Chairman Terry Lathan responding to today's 6-3 Supreme Court ruligng in favor of Obamacare*
"The
nightmare continues for America with the United States Supreme Court
upholding parts of the wildly unpopular Affordable Care Act, also known
as Obamacare.
"This
destructive legislation forced upon Americans pertaining to their
health care and health insurance is an abomination and a plight on our
nation. America is the most loving country in the world and our citizens
should have access to superb health care, but this legislation is an
albatross of government intervention and bureaucracy. It has little to
do with care and mostly to do with more legislative strangleholds and
controlling our daily lives.
"No
American should be forced to sign up or buy health insurance that is
not their choice. This alone is enough to remind us all how important
the elections of 2016 will be to America. We must reverse this course,
starting by removing Democrats from the White House all the way down to
our county courthouses.
"Let
us never forget the words of Barack Obama when he and the Democrats
forced their will on all of America: 'If you like your doctor, you can
keep your doctor. If you like your health care plan, you can keep your
health care plan.' America now knows this was a prescription for
disaster and a blatant falsehood.
"The
Affordable Care Act is neither affordable nor about care and today's
ruling by the United States Supreme Court ensures that this bureaucratic
overreach will continue to inflict harm to the free market and keep the
federal government between you and your doctor.
"Obamacare
can, and will, be removed from our health care system and a
market-based solution to reform skyrocketing costs and focus on the
individual can heal the broken system if we elect a Republican President
in 2016. That is why, as Chairman of the Alabama Republican Party, I
will continue to work tirelessly with all Republicans in Alabama and
America towards that goal."

TL Blog note: *This stopped being a pejorative word long ago, when President Obama endorsed it, saying "I DO care!"
"If we elect a Republican president in 2016."
ReplyDeleteWhich candidate. I've lost count of how many are climbing into the clown car.
And sure, sure. A Republican president will solve all the problems in the nation and the world. Sure, sure.
Yes, it's a nightmare.
ReplyDeleteA nightmare for Republicans who can't stand the thought of low and middle income folks receiving adequate health care.
