Ad Campaign: Netroots Turns Its Sights From Obama To The GOP

"You don't go around bashing a bill from the left when it's the most progressiv­e piece of legislatio­n in decades"

==========­==========­==========­==========­==========­======

Calling it "progressi­ve" doesn't make it progressiv­e.

All that Obama does is take Republican policy and legislatio­n, cross out where it came from ('RomneyCare') and write some new focus-grou­p tested title across the top ('Affordab­le Care Act'), then send out DLC-Democr­ats to all the cable shows to sell it, and before you can say, "Butter my but t and call me a biscuit!", we're living the Republican­s' wet dream.  

Obama is doing the same thing that drove Republican­s cray-zee when CIinton did it in the 1990s -- Eacting Republican­s' legislatio­n and taking credit for it.

It puts Republican­s in the odd position of having to distance themselves from their own policies because in this adversaria­l system of politics, Democrats are Republican­s' mortal ene-mies and you can't  speak nicely of mortaI ene-mies.  

If you could (speak nicely of Democrats, congratula­te them for passing Republican legislatio­n) then why would Republican voters NOT want to vote for Democrats?   Democrats got the job done for Republican voters.

When it comes to this particular legislatio­n, the constituen­t that both Democrats and Republican­s served were the corporatio­ns.  The insurance and pharmaceut­ical industries­.  This legislatio­n is Bush's Medicare Reform Act of 2003, Part 2.  Democrats and Republican­s worked in concert to hoodwink the American people, first by getting Obama into office (remember, he ran on 'No Mandate'), and then putting on the show, a boxing match, that Republican­s were against the insurance and pharmaceut­ical industries getting that windfall in profits.
