"Healthcare reform. The POTUS got what he wanted--and what U.S. Presidents for the last 100 years have tried to get--universal healthcare for all Americans. Was the bill a Rube Goldberg concoction of terms to satisfy every politician, constituency and special interest group you can imagine? You betcha' Did it "bend the cost curve"? No way, not after all the stuff that Congress negotiated in and out, for themselves as well as their special interest buddies. But I blame the Congress a whole lot more than Obama. He got what he wanted and that was impressive--something we've been needing for a century.

It is incredible to me that you would compliment a man who ran for President based on no more politics in bills..no more pork in bills....bi partisan all the way....open and candid and in the SAME sentence say "Was the bill a Rube Goldberg concoction of terms to satisfy every politician, constituency and special interest group you can imagine? You betcha' Did it "bend the cost curve"? No way, not after all the stuff that Congress negotiated in and out, for themselves as well as their special interest buddies.

HOWEVER you are impressed ! And then you say that this "Rube Goldberg concoction" is "something we've been needing for a century".

I am suspecting VK that you are as left leaning in every way possible but very glib about it !!

I just want to add that you also use the word HATE.....I have never used that term EVER. I dont recall anyone who opposed this President every using that word, but it seems that you and others find anyones opposition to this President as hate...not opposed to his idealogy but hate....not against his policies but hate.

I dont recall myself or anyone else on here ever even talking about this President in a personal manner.....yet you and others find these oppositions as HATE.

I dont understand that !
