After Obamacare health exchange deadline passes, 26 states opt in with feds - GMDino - 02-18-2017
This is an article from 2013 that popped up in my FB memories.
My favorite quote:
Quote:State leaders who deferred to the federal government cited numerous reasons for their choices; among them, they wanted to distance themselves from Mr. Obama’s first-term achievement, could not obtain enough information to make an informed decision or ran out of time after Mitt Romney lost the presidential election. That loss effectively ended Republicans’ hopes of repealing the health care law.
What I said about it then:
Quote:Now THAT is some effective leadership! Just do nothing and hope the guy loses the next election so it could be overturned! What a brilliant plan! Heck why not just vote against everything he proposes too! Then you can say he didn't do "anything".
And that's just what happened. Way to go GNOP!
