So your only gauge for whether healthcare is a failure or not is because it raised rates for insurance (in exchange for free healthcare), and because people don't like it? Since when do people know what's good for them, and why do you give them so much credit? Do you think healthcare would work if people got on board?
All republicans were saying? You don't honestly believe that. We're not talking congress here. We're talking presidents and candidates. Frankly, I think the amount of closeted republicans and seriously biased voting going on in congress makes the Republicans look much worse than the Dems, but that's my opinion. As for candidates, you can't honestly say that dems skewering Palin is unreasonable. The right has pulled some absolutely retarded political shit that BEGS this sort of thing.
And yeah, the petty shit needs to stop. And yes, the tea party is full of racist medicare-fueled douchebags. That's indisputable. I suggest you go to a Tea Party Express meeting and locate all the absolutely retarded, racist, conspiracy shit the voters believe in.
That 30% comes from the latest Gallup poll, so please try not to dispute that.
