It takes courage to push through legislation that as you indicate most Americans were opposed to. How many political leaders have we had that would stick their fingers in the air, and base every decision on what was at the moment the popular thing to do? BTW, Obama's healthcare bill, as you know, is pretty much the same as the one advocated by then Governor Romney who may very well be his opponent in 2012. I'll be curious to see how Mitt Romney explains this in the campaign.

"It takes courage to push through legislation that as you indicate most Americans were opposed to."

You keep reading what you posted above and tell me what is wrong with THAT picture.

There were differences between Obama's and Romney's....the most glaring to me is one was a STATE law and the other for the ENTIRE COUNTRY...that is a HUGE difference,

But as you said..it takes guts to push something through that Amerians did not want !
