Support for repeal of the new national health care plan has jumped to its highest level ever. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 63% of U.S. voters now favor repeal of the plan passed by congressional Democrats and signed into law by President Obama in March.
Prior to today, weekly polling had shown support for repeal ranging from 54% to 58%.
Every time the public sours on this trip down a dangerous, expensive alley, His Lightbringerliness tells us it’s merely because he hasn’t explained it well enough. If the numbers keep going in this direction we can expect the president to be giving speeches in his sleep for the next few months.
This is, of course, precisely why the Democrats wanted to pass the Health Care Reform bill before the public could find out all about it. It’s a disturbing time in America when our alleged representatives are deliberately railroading legislation that they are fully aware their constituents will hate. It becomes unconscionable when that legislation is not only opposed by the current constituents but will unfairly burden the future ones.
This kind of behavior would be criminal in any other business. While President Obama runs around wailing about Wall Street, Big Oil, Big Insurance and all of the other made-up enemies out there he presides over an out of control government that will poison the lives of the children he and the Democrats always pretend to be fighting for.
The president flippantly stated during the circle-jerk he called a health care summit, “That’s what elections are for,” which was basically his admission that he knew he was doing what he wanted to do with wanton disregard for the American people.
Now it’s time for those of us who aren’t drunk with Obama love to make sure those words haunt him.
