Yes Republicans did have input, amendments, and influence crafting "Obamacare"

[TeamPooka]

As noted in the article from The Atlantic in 2010

Fact-checking the GOP on healthcare reform
Senate Dems adopted 161 amendments and key GOP planks while soft-pedaling the public option. That's not compromise?

So we need to end the bullshit that it is just a Democrat bill that was hoved down their thoats as they like to say.

1. This article is 7 years old.

And was written before the final bill was voted on. The final bill got rid of the amendments mentioned in the article.

2. I remember republicans kept stalling for -

more studies, debates, reports, etc,...

and The Democrats saw the stall tactics for what they were - and got it done.

It was not "rushed through" - it took 402 days to get it through Congress and on The President's desk for signature.

4. Don't step in the GOP hypocrisy. You'll have to scrape it off your shoes.

3. The ACA was based on a plan by The Heritage Foundation...

A right wing think tank. It was Romneycare on a nationwide scale.

The republicans have been so adamant that it's awful, and unsustainable, but that was all campaign rhetoric.

They're screwed.

5. Trying to get the GOP to own up to the fact that this is their plan in the first place is fun.

6. Even the Heritage Foundation...

Claims that it's not theirs, but (real) fact checkers rate the claim as mostly true.
