Joe, apropos of your post, I continue to be appalled by the willingness of the media to be a Party organ. It is the great shame of a free media that so many have discarded their integrity to be cheerleaders of statism.
That having been said, what an utter joke even to pretend that the reason people don’t understand the bill is because of those violentracistKKKthugevilmongeringbigotNazilynchmobKristallnachtAryan critics.
First, the author cannot seriously believe such dreck. If he does, he is islands-are-rocks-that-float-but-can-tip-over stupid.
Second, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi infamously told people last month that “we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy.” (The fog has cleared; turns out where there’s smoke, there’s fire ? indeed, a huge bonfire of the liberties.)
Third, despite it already passing and his signing it into law, even the president doesn’t know what’s in his own bill.
And cutting it short at a fourth, there is an atrocious pattern of people who support the president thinking that his legislative aims means things will get magically handed to them for free; see, e.g.:
The president and his cynical power brokers rely on this deplorable naivete and incomprehensible ignorance to buttress their flagging poll numbers.
I wonder how many of the minority of voters who had supported “Obamacare” before it was signed into law still like it when, well, they’re finding out now that no “Christmas” is coming?
