are posting anti-ACA threads calling it a corporate give away.

What's even more amusing is that most of these guys posting anti-ACA threads are running around with Bernie Sanders avatars and sig lines.

It's like they forgot Bernie Sanders voted for and praised the ACA.

Too funny.

Obama hatred can be quite blinding.

President Barack Obama's message to the GOP on #ObamaCare's 6-3 SCOTUS win.. and others.

So heartwarming to see Republicans consoling themselves over the bad news that thousands of people won't go bankrupt if they get sick.

I am not aware of any DU Obama haters.

There are some DUers who have criticisms against Obama for
his corporatism and trade policiy, as anyone would who wants
to see Obama fighting for the 99% instead of the rich and
corporate.

The anger (which tells more about the person expressing than the object attacked) and yelling (trying to win an argument by sheer volume) and name calling (mischaracterizing others whom one can't possibly know) aren't as successful as Method acting but do approach Meisner acting.
