LMAO they do??? Really so where is the blame for the debt that Republicans caused. Reagan for example??? The mess we are in now snowballed starting in the early 80's. The right never blames their guys just like the left never blames their guys. So please spare us with how the right blames stuff over time. They tend to blame Obama for everything if you dont believe me turn on Faux news they do it every night??

Yes, it is absolutely terrible that Reagan added 1.7 trillion to the debt, created 17 million jobs, grew the labor force, had massive job growth during his first term coming off a recession worse than this one, doubled GDP, and grew govt. income tax revenue by about 60% with his tax cuts, and leave future Presidents with a Peace dividend. How dare he generate those results for that debt. We all know the 6.4 trillion Obama has added has generated much better results.

mebbe Ronnie Raygun's 1.7 bought the end of the cold war and reaped the peace dividend which fueled the economic boom of the Clinton years?
(and ronnie lowered taxes and the 80's were known as the decade of greed cuz everyone was makin' bank)
What do we have to show for Obummer's six trillion of debt downhthe rathole? More debt and higher taxes
(well we did get socialized medicine rammed down our throats so that's a good thing)

That's not what I said. Doctors, nurses, healthcare professionals provide the care. Medicare provided a payer. And way to make sure there were quality providers were available and paid.

Hmmm, wonder why then there is so much waste, fraud, and abuse in the program but apparently not enough for you to not want to penalize the Federal Govt. for that waste. Yes, let's give the politicians more money to spend as we know that will benefit us all. After all we only have a 17 trillion dollar debt on a 16 trillion dollar economy.

It's no contest. Not even debatable.

Obama's economic policies were/are lies and miserable failures. Reagan's economic recovery > Obama's economic recovery by a landslide. It's time to try something different. Obama isn't up for the job. He's too busy flying around the country playing golf at taxpayer expense, endlessly campaigning, dividing the country along racial lines and starting WW3 in Syria without congressional approval.

How many job summits has this used car salesmen had since taking office? Where are the results? 6+ trillion and counting spent and *&^%$ is getting worse. Not better. Where's the Hope and Change we were promised? Where's the rising of the oceans? I don't see the planet healing yet the diehard true believers still tenaciously and slavishly corrupt themselves to defend Obama. It's embarrassing. He's marching ship and planes into Syria without anyone's approval and killing our economy with reckless and feckless policies. His stimulus bill was loaded with bribes and payouts to campaign contributors and union thugs. He stuffs his administration with donors and cronies. He uses the IRS and the NSA like a personal weapon against his political opposition, yet still they come here everyday and defend this guy like he walks on water.

I just #smh

Great, glad to hear that you are willing to clean up the mess before creating another entitlement program. Knew you would come around.

You might clean it up by creating a better system, UHC.

You might but history says you aren't going to get one until you clean up the old one. Why would you reward bad behavior by creating another entitlement program until you at lease clean up the ones that are there now?

Giving someone access to healthcare is hardly an "entitlement program".Seems like most civilized people would consider it to be essential.Kinda like breathing fresh, clean, air. OOPs sorry.Forgot.:(

Yep, don't start something that is destined to fail due to Federal Govt. inefficiency, waste, fraud, and abuse. Clean up the Federal Govt. first before adding more debt to the 17 trillion there now. When does the national debt become an issue for you

People have access now, Medicaid and many other state programs. If you want something else, sell it to your state and not force a one size fits all on the rest of us. Why would you force people on to a program that don't want it ? You think all the uninsured don't have healthcare available to them? They choose not to participate.

Just another example showing that liberals only think with their hearts and never engage their brain. What about all those uninsured who could have healthcare but CHOOSE not to participate or say they won't sign up for Obamacare? Just goes to show that millions of Americans know a little more than you appear to know

Two-Thirds of Americans Don't Know If They Will Insure Under Obamacare
 
I'm still waiting for that access to the Swedish Supermodel and the Ferrari 458 Italia c'mon Obama Santa where the hell is it
It's my right to have it gimme the stuff now!

Do you realize how stupid that is? What people know or don't know doesn't equal anything factual. :lamo:lamo:lamo
