Why do Republicans sabotage Obamacare - then say it's failing?

It's the law.

Damn right it is. So why are you guys on the Left spewing this bullshit crap about people dying in the streets? We've got ERs and other venues for people to get treatment even if they can't pay for it. Why do you keep spreading these absolute lies?

Duh, because ER treatment is much more expensive - and those costs are spread among those with insurance.

Yes it is, but that doesn't answer the question for why you Lefties are spreading the bullshit lies about people dying in the streets from treatable diseases. And since when did you guys ever give a crap about expenses. Yeah, the GOP doesn't either apparently and that's a problem but don't be trying to tell anybody the libdems have the high moral ground about less spending.

Dems have always had the higher moral ground on health care and civil rights. Google it...



Oh really?

.

You might want to read about the different parties in the US since inception and what they stood for.
 
Since the old days, the Democratic Party has evolved - the Republican Party has devolved. That's a fact. Google it...
why don't you actually prove your claim by providing the links and the abstract that says that? chicken?

The easiest way to show it is to count black people elected to federal office, or high state office. Back in the late 1800's they were all republicans, and continued into the 1960's, then suddenly everything changed. after the civil rights act. By the end of the 20th century republicans had maybe 1 black person in congress, compared to the democrats having 30 or more. There was a complete ideological switch between the two parties when it came to minorities.

You also have to consider that over time parties change. Republicans used to be for fiscal responsibility, and then they became the biggest deficit spenders (as multipliers of debt, or percent of GDP) in history.

"The easiest way to show it is to count black people elected to federal office, or high state office.

There was a complete ideological switch between the two parties when it came to minorities.
American conservatism originated from classical liberalism of 18th and 19th centuries, which advocates civil liberties and political freedom with representative democracy under the rule of law and emphasizes economic freedom.[3][4]

Historians argue that the conservative tradition has played a major role in American politics and culture since the 1790s. However they have stressed that an organized conservative movement has played a key role in politics only since the 1950s.[5][6][7] The recent movement is based in the Republican Party, though some Democrats were also important figures early in the movement's history.[8][9]"

6 Democrats

At least the left admits that Obamacare has failed, that's a start in the right direction. It might be ludicrous to blame the GOP for Obama's failure but if that's what it takes to keep the left from hiring assassins and smashing windows and torching cars, go for it.

So what happens to your claim of only one?....had to change the original post did you?


.
 
Wow are you proud only 10 black senators in the history of the United States...
6 Democrats
4 Republicans..
.

What's more telling is the eras they were elected in. Republicans in the pre civil rights days, and democrats after. Maybe not 100%, there are always one or two exceptions, but as a general rule you see how the parties switched.
 
And Tim Scott is the ONLY black senator,
And two blacks in the house.

That's a total of three.

You might want to read about the different parties in the US since inception and what they stood for.

You also have to consider that over time parties change. Republicans used to be for fiscal responsibility, and then they became the biggest deficit spenders (as multipliers of debt, or percent of GDP) in history.

the ' republicans ' started to become mutants after religion reared its ugly head & .highjacked the party.

Wow are you proud only 10 black senators in the history of the United States...
6 Democrats
4 Republicans..
.

What's more telling is the eras they were elected in. Republicans in the pre civil rights days, and democrats after. Maybe not 100%, there are always one or two exceptions, but as a general rule you see how the parties switched.


They switched because of jobs , they switched like I did when I grew up and paid taxes , bought a house had kids..these rednecks figured it out farm jobs was not the way to go, they wanted manufacturing jobs and the Republicans delivered .
