Obamacare is proving to be very troublesome for the Democrats that are up for re-election in 2014. Will they abandon the Democrat leadership to save their skins? That remains to be seen. If they don't join the Republicans to change the course of Obamacare, there will be a Republican landslide of monumental proportions. Maybe you Democrat voters out there who are suffering the effects should tell your favorite politician what you expect. Do you like what you are seeing from Obamacare? Are your premiums going down $2500/year? Can you keep that health care insurance you like? Do you still have the same doctor under Obamacare? Will you be able to keep that doctor going forward?
Those Democrats can still take the steps needed now to save the Democratic party. They can end this particular MessAPolitico and help repeal the PPACA. These Democrats can work together with the Republicans to pass smaller, incremental reforms to health care and health insurance. The results can be in the best interest of America. That would be much better than a bill that helps a politician get what he wants -- re-election. The results can be so good that folks actually re-elect the politicians because they like what they have done. The bills can be truly bipartisan. I use the plural "bills" because no bill should ever be so big that it can't be read in a short time and understood. No bill should be large enough to hide things that are unrelated inside. No bill should ever be so big that it must be passed to find out what's in it. Break this thing down into a hundred bills that can each be debated and decided individually. All or nothing is a terrible choice to make.
You know, I heard an interview with a House member from Tennessee a couple of weeks ago. He was commenting that he is one of twenty medical doctors in the 113th Congress. Did you know that during the crafting of the PPACA and in discussions since its passage, not a single one of these physicians was consulted? The law was written and is being implemented by lawyers instead of doctors. Does that make any sense at all? Maybe, the fact that the law doesn't work at all makes more sense now. Maybe we can all understand why the PPACA is such a MessAPolitico.
Democrat voters, I'm asking for your help. I don't think you want this MessAPolitico anymore than I do. We can stop it together. Threaten your congressional representatives and Senators with something that gets there attention. Tell them you won't vote for them next time unless they stop this MessAPolitico.
