re: #70 HappyWarrior

They fucked themselves the minute they acted like there was no way that “strict constructionist” Roberts would disagree with them on the issue. And the more ACA/Obamacare becomes part of society and people see that the Republicans/Tea Party lied to them about the reality of what it is, they’re going to be pissed. Before you know it, you’ll have Republicans running on supporting it or at least claiming that their party didn’t do everything possible to get it into law. Kind of like how British conservatives were forced to embrace their healthcare system even after they fought Attlee along the way.

Reality isn’t going to stop the GOP from claiming Obamacare is evil. It may be allowed fade into obscurity over time, but in the near future the faithful will demand opposition to health care for people who are not them.
