(45,319 posts)So cute on your part, but as I said those of you who wanted a reform without a public option got their way and those who support those Mediocre Moderates should obviously be the most passionate and automatic defenders of this law, which exists as they wanted it to exist, not as Obama proposed it as candidate, not as liberals wanted it, the Moderate Centrists got what they wanted, Mandates, no Public Option, my State and others with better ideas prevented from correcting the problems with ACA until 2017. The Bauchus crowd got all that they wanted, stuffed into a stocking, hung on the mantle and called reform. So why the hell are they not out there doing the hard work of selling that which they created, why are they demanding that those of us who wanted better should do their work for them?
Expecting others to promote that which you insisted upon is daft thinking. Where are the folks who insited 'NO public option, lots of mandates!!!!!' now? They should be the leaders of this sales effort, it is that simple. Sorry if you don't like it Joe. And I'm sure you don't.
