Now they are frantically trying to come up with an "alternative" to the ACA. Which they won't be able to do because they are so beholden to the Koch's and other scum, who are adamantly opposed to any sort of plan that increases health care access and decreases costs. They are flailing like an alligator biting an electric eel.

Thanks, Obama. [View all] MannyGoldstein Apr 2014 OP
