Excellent--------I am cleaning my desk this a.m. and just noticed an article from the American Spectator of September 2011 by Grace- Marie Turner. The gist of the article----after loosing the House ----with Obama in disbelief Obama's advisors got him to dampen the controversy over Obamacare by handing out 'buckets of waivers and attacking Republicans on Medicare"----notice not medicaid. Pat Caddell , Democratic Polster ------said it was healthcare that killed the Democrats. Obama was in disbelief that his pet project was so hated by the American people due to it's anti-democracy basis. My comment Obama will concentrate on the Medicare as his fear mechanism now------scare the retired people------the Seniors. Also, my comment Republicans should continue to attack Obama on Obamacare and to "attack Obama on handing out waivers on Obamacare to some but not to all Americans". Medicare has been in place for retired people for decades--------retirees pay for it monthly-----Medicare is not free. Most retired people then have a second insurance policy--------with their children often helping parents to pay the second policy as they, the working young people, also pay into the Social Security System under which Medicare falls. This is just the tip of the iceberg with Obamacare and with the current system.
