Yet every one that have been dredged up has been debunked. Poppycock.

>> Here's the problem. The Republicans have done their best to come up with ACA losers. Now the fact of the matter is that there are some because of the way it is structured. Yet every one that have been dredged up has been debunked. This is not factual. But what IS true is that each time one of these has come out the Left has assailed the person who made an individual choice in an effort to claim he or she is better off with Obamacare. In effect, to claim the person is an idiot, and didn't know what he or she was talking about. These reports, in an effort to protect Obamacare, essentially claim that the person doesn't know what they were talking about and is incompetent to make a decision as to which insurance is best for them. So, there has been no actual debunking, only the Alinsky-esque tactic of ridiculing people for determining their own preferences. The Washington Post fact checker, last week, actually called a person a "half liar" because THEY COULDN'T CONFIRM what she said. That's ridiculous. On the healthcare thread last week the liberals, led by Al, went after this woman. As it turned out, there were legitimate reasons she was bitching about Obamacare. But not before this woman was dragged through the mud by the liberal media. At the bottom line, the issue is simple: If a person has insurance they like, then Obamacare forces its cancellation, and the person doesn't the alternatives she is now confronted with, she is injured by Obamacare. It doesn't matter if Obama or you says, "Oh, but you're better off." She is NOT better off, no matter what. Because her freedom to choose the product in a free market that she wants to choose has been taken away. There may be other reasons, but that is the fundamental reason she was injured. As some of us told you up front, people will lose their lives because of this law. And Barack Obama, Reid and Pelosi by damned ought to stand trial for it, because they caused it in the name of politics. Now, if you want to argue the pros and cons of this program, I'll argue it with you all day long. But you might want to move it to the other thread where there are at least some liberals who can help you because your argument isn't worth three cents.
