    Bush was a very poor President as he had no idea what to do.

    Obama is divisive and punitive to those he dislikes.

    Obama has no idea what to do, either, and his divisiveness makes him a worse President than Bush, based on that criteria. Plus, Bush at least let Ted Kennedy write the No School Left Behind law, which Democrats later blamed on Bush, even though the Dem Congress passed it. Obama quite literally refused to let the GOP have any input on ObamaCare, saying "I Won" to them when they raised concerns.

    Strange how your unbiased polls always fail to mention that Republican popularity is below the Democrats and below the President.

    When your coverage is upgraded to meet the new standards, you receive a cancellation letter, followed by an application to start the better insurance policy, usually at a lower price.

    Strange how incumbent congresspeople keep getting reelected, ain't it?

    If you actually dig into the poll a little bit deeper, Obama is behind republicans on pretty much every issue now:

    Code:
    Q27-32. Summary table - Do you approve or disapprove of the way President Obama is handling ...?

    We no longer have health insurance in this country. Insurance is a membership in a risk pool you join for a fee to jointly limit your potential losses. The company selling the insurance has a value added function of identifying and marketing the shares in and managing the risk pool that member join for mutual protection.

    Now the risk pools have been eliminated. We now have a dictator run cooperative providing health care coverage to all people that must join by law, enforced by the government. The company managing the cooperative will set the rates to produce a 20% profit above the cost
    of a single all risks covered pool.

    Now I can't imagine why a sane man would want this system but Progressives do.
    It no longer seems fitting to call them progressives, perhaps cooperative progressive
    is more appropriate. But not quite, cooperatives are self managed by members with equal voting powers.
    This turkey is dictator run!

    Funny none of you complained about Obamacare when the Heritage Foundation wrote the bill. Nor did you complain when Bob Dole put forth this VERY same plan. Nor did you complain when Mitt Romney Passed it WITH the employer mandate (written by Republicans). No, none of you complained then. But now that Obama passes it through both houses of congress and has it vetted by the SCOTUS as constitutional do you complain and call it dictatorship??

    IT'S A REPUBLICAN PLAN...

    Gerrymandering sure is strange... You can do that when you have a bunch of Republican Governors.

    Why should I complain what ever Romney did in Mass? I have no recollection of Bob Dole purposing this Insurance cooperative. The Chief Justice of the court stuck his head up his arse
    and pull down the shades. You will find no where in the Constitution where the Federal government is to run insurance cooperatives, Period! States can and do, but not the Feds.

    By the way, your little diddy attached to your posts is rather silly displayed with every post. You may hate me for my race but that is your problem.
    It hinders me not at all in my daily business.

    let me see if I can get this straight..the guy that would not change a single aspect of obamacare a few weeks ago, just amended a law (can he do that?) to "allow " the sales of discontinued insurance plans? In doing so he has extended this deadline for one year..past the Nov elections of 2014..and at the threat of losing Dem support on an up coming vote..and he did all of this while placing blame elsewhere..

    meanwhile 27 thousand people have completed the process to apply for obamacare...lets look at what "completing the process" is. That qualification does not include paying for or singing up for service. Nope. That means that they went on line and priced the product, as well as checked for what government subsidies they would qualify for to help pay for the policy..and again obama blames the right..woot...

    Sorry, but that's just silly.

    The Heritage Foundation is the republican party? Who says republicans have good ideas and democrats don't? The obvious conclusion is that neither party does.

    The one flaw in your assertion here is no republican voted for ObamaCare. Not a one. Zip. Nada. Zero votes.
