Within two days of real work, our House of Representatives will 'NOT" debate and will pass Health Care Repeal. They have come up with a good and catchy name for the "Act" (see title). Just a little insight as to their effort is needed.
1. It doesn't "kill jobs". That is a purposeful ruse. The proverbial red-herring. A straw dog.
2. "What would you prefer Congress do with the new health care law? Leave it as is. Change it so that it does MORE to change the health care system. Change it so that it does LESS to change the health care system. Repeal it completely." Poll take 1/5/2011 - 1/10/2011

Leave it as is 19%
Change it so it does more 46%
Change it so it does less 10%
Repeal it completely 26%
Unsure/Refused 2%
Doesn't look wildly unpopular to me but what Boehner is doing is taking the 46% who aren't happy with it the way it is and WANT IT TO DO MORE and counting them with those who want the current law repealed. Yes John, they want it repealed and a new law passed THAT DOES MORE.
I am so happy this morning that we have 2 full years of this deception to look forward to.
