It’s come to this: the White House Twitter account is attempting to drum up support for Obamacare through the “Adorable Care Act,” a meme template featuring cute animals. While the Obama administration and OFA both deny being behind the associated accounts, the White House takes no shame in sharing the memes.
What can really be said about this? The Obama-worshippers have officially outed themselves as completely infantile. This sickening attempt to be relevant and disarming just illustrates how utterly devoid of fact and reason the liberal cult is.
Meanwhile, the facts remain a disadvantage to Obamacare supporters, no matter how many cute animals they tweet. A Rasmussen poll found that, while support for the legislation has never been higher, only 30% of those polled think it will improve the healthcare system, while 51% think it will damage the system. NBC found similar results: 45% say it will be negative, 23% positive. The people do not want this law, which is why the liberal mob is so desperate to paint it in a good light.
Companies are already laying off workers because of Obamacare’s taxes and regulations. The burden on businesses and taxpayers is undeniable, yet the “Affordable Care Act” rolls on.
In July 2012, Obamacare was estimated to cost $2.6 trillion in its first decade of implementation. Considering that this estimate was the last of a train of increasingly higher estimates, it is probably even higher now. President Obama keeps claiming to care about the recession, jobs, and the middle class. The massive government spending speaks otherwise.
Of course, when liberals aren’t trying to dress up their disastrous legislation as cute and cuddly, they’re spewing hatred at their enemies. Harry Reid lambasted “Tea Party anarchists” who “deny the mere fact that Obamacare is the law.”
This from the party whose administration keeps delaying parts of its signature legislation with no regard for its own rules. These are the people giving lectures about respecting the rule of law.
All of this just confirms what we already know. Obamacare is a disastrous piece of legislation in every aspect: political, financial, economical, and medical. There is no reasonable, factual argument that can be made in its favor. All the Democrats (and their Republican supporters) can do is lie about its supposed benefits and demonize anyone who dares oppose it, like, for example, Senator Ted Cruz.
They have nothing. And yet, they’re winning. And that’s the most disastrous of all.

Whatever. Obama demanded his name be removed. And, Pelosi didn’t want her skin in the game, either.
It’s an Orwellian name change. Like the “patriot act,” that has nothing to do with patriots. And, everything to do with Constitutional guarantees going and flying out the window.
Once upon a time, when I was young, people paid cash to the doctor who made house calls. $10.
Then, in the 1970’s what we call “health insurance” began reimbursing people for office visits. With the exception that they wouldn’t pay for a routine ANNUAL visit. So secretaries (in gynecologists offices) were told to write in Yeast Infection. For what? So the patient could get back her $15.
Started cheap enough. Plus, insurance companies would tell doctors it was “cheaper to pay off the claim” than to go to court. You want health reform? FIRST, I’d like to see TORT reform!
Too many parasites feeding at the trow.
Two steps to tort reform:
1. The state confiscates punitive damages.
2. The losing side in a lawsuit that goes to a verdict pays the winning side’s costs: 50% is paid by the losing plaintiff/defendant, 50% by his or her attorney.
I’d like to see those who oppose ObamaCare calling it:
“The Patient Prosecution and Unaffordable Care Act”
“The Patient Extermination and Unsustainable Care Act”
or
The Friends of Obama Get Exceptions and Lousy Care For the Rest of Us Act”
Troot in advertisin’!!!
Here are the true pics they should be using – and just for part of the story. LOL
And here’s their ad line.
“ObamaCare will give you health and teeth as good as the Brits!”

“At the core of liberalism is the spoiled child – miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic and useless. Liberalism is a philosphy of sniveling brats.”
— P.J. O’Rourke
Leftists too.
P.J.’s quote reminds me of Rush’s often asked question:
“Folks, when’s the last time you saw a happy Liberal?”
Except for maybe 1-hr on November 7, 2012, I don’t think I’ve spotted one. (-:
Abominable Care Act.
The White House and Obama mean it is the:
ABORTION CARE ACT!
Death Panels to the Ready1
Snark Snark!
Obama’s will be paying for abortions
–
even forcing religion affliated hospitals whose faith oppose abortion to still pay for abortions.
RE: “utterly devoid of fact and reason the liberal cult is.” Well Said.
Adorable Care Act = Lipstick on a pig.
If Congress wants to take the subsidy then it is up to the states to rectify the problem. The states should charge 100% on the subsidy as income tax for federal employees making over $125,000 a year just to make it fair for everyone.
Can’t we compromise?
I’m reminded of 1989 when the Soviet Union (Affordable Communism Act) collapsed and one liberated, elderly Czech woman, irate that they’d stolen the best years of her life, angrily shook her fist at the news cameras before her and shouted, “They should have tried it on animals first !!!”
Can’t we try Obamacare on animals first? Make it a veterinary law to see what a disaster it is with adorable guinea pigs before experimenting on human guinea pigs?
Deplorable Care Act
“Affordable Care Act”
“War is Peace”
“Freedom is Slavery”
“Ignorance is Strength”
“Arbeit Macht Frei”
Brought to you by the same folks who made a hero out of a 30-year-old law student at an elite institution demanding that other people subsidize her contraceptives. And the Democrats made her a star representative of their philosophy.
They can’t see how childish it makes them look — but they say their opponents are irresponsible anarchists etc.
New definition of an anarchist: someone who doesn’t wish to pay for someone else’s contraceptives.
I’m getting so tired of the Democrat argument that it’s the law of the land, get over it. Slavery was the law of the land, legal cocaine was the law of the land, prohibition was the law of the land….all these “laws of the land” have been struck down. I just wish I would hear one pundit reply to someone using the law of the land argument, asking if slavery is ok since it was the law of the land…just once. When the Dem replies..well it was struck down…exactly, we are trying to do the same thing with another evil law.
Isaac, nice job! Thanks!
Isaac: “VAPIDITY” is giving them waaaaay too much credit for intelligence.
How about: VAST COGNITIVE CONCAVITY.**
(**Not to be confused with my oft used characterization of His Infantile Majesty’s utter absence of Guts: VAST TESTICULAR CONCAVITY or VTC.**)
Mr. Reid obviously hasn’t noticed, and don’t any of youze tell him, that the Tea Party has been relatively quiescent over the past few years (having thought, I suppose, that since they elected a few young gunslingers to represent them in the D.C., they’d sit back and let themselves be represented by professionals for a change).
It doesn’t really matter since, as we all know, there is no such thing as one discrete Tea Party anyway. Which is why we don’t want Dirty Harry Reid to find out. Because as it is right now, he does not know who his “Tea Party anarchist” enemies are or where they’re coming from. What he should know is that he’s really pi**ing Tea-Party-sympathetic people off with his trash talk and his lies and his boot-licking-butt-kissing obsequiousness (what causes a presumably grown male [not sure qualifies as a “man”] to act this way? Obama/NSA/CIA/FBI/entrepreneurial sextortionist got some filthy dirty pics on him?). Just watch what’s going on at the sidelines – Tea Party people are (metaphorically) beginning to armor-up.
Best part is, it’s just in time for the ’14 election season!!!1! LOL! 🙂
