16. This shows how effective the GOP's use of the "Big Lie" is.. make a big lie & keep repeating it! M$M

helps enourmously in this by also continuously repeating it. Such as saying that most people are against HCR..

Actually when the Kaiser Family Foundation polled people on this issue, a majority said they were against HCR. But when asked more detailed questions about the changing of health insurance practices such as:

...prohibition of rescission for pre-existing conditions, or
...requiring insurance companies provide coverage of children, or
...for providing tax credits to help small businesses provide group coverage for their employess,

most people were for changing these practices as has been done in the HCR law.

Republicans have done a great job scaring the uninformed by talking about the HCR law like it's a 'boogey-man'.
