Obamacare - Noonan: A Catastrophe Like No Other
Noonan: A Catastrophe Like No Other
Tell me you haven't seen exactly this from the cutlists.
"Put aside the numbers for a moment, and the daily argument.
'Seven point one million people have signed up!'
'But six million people lost their coverage and were forced onto the exchanges! That's no triumph, it's a manipulation. And how many of the 7.1 million have paid?'
'We can't say, but 7.1 million is a big number and redeems the program.'
'Is it a real number?'
'Your lack of trust betrays a dark and conspiratorial right-wing mindset.'"
Please share the link above. I don't every need a H/T, etc. Just spread her argument.
Here's another highlight you can use on the off chance you can find a Democrat who can think and honestly evaluate:
"'There's a brute test of a policy: If you knew then what you know now, would you do it? I will never forget a conversation in 2006 or thereabouts with a passionate and eloquent supporter of the decision to go into Iraq. We had been having this conversation for years, he a stalwart who would highlight every optimistic sign, every good glimmering. He argued always for the rightness of the administration's decision. I would share my disquiet, my doubts, finally my skepticism. One night over dinner I asked him, in passing, 'If we had it to do over again, should we have gone in? would you support it?'
And he said, 'Of course not!'
Which told me everything."
If you find a leftist who can think maybe that approach will work. Most liberals you talk to will say they still would support Obamacare. Who suffers, what fraud was committed, the rule of law being shredded; none of it matters to them. Which should really tell you everything.
