Interesting idea about how to beat the "health care reform" legislation

Daniel Henniger from the Wall Street Journal" says, "Let it fail on its own."


What the GOP's Defund-ObamaCare Caucus is failing to see is that ObamaCare is no longer just ObamaCare. It is about something that is beyond the reach of a congressional vote.

As its Oct. 1 implementation date arrives, ObamaCare is the biggest bet that American liberalism has made in 80 years on its foundational beliefs. This thing called "ObamaCare" carries on its back all the justifications, hopes and dreams of the entitlement state. The chance is at hand to let its political underpinnings collapse, perhaps permanently.

If ObamaCare fails, or seriously falters, the entitlement state will suffer a historic loss of credibility with the American people. It will finally be vulnerable to challenge and fundamental change. But no mere congressional vote can achieve that. Only the American people can kill ObamaCare.

The Great Pretender is already setting up the eventuality that this is exactly what will happen.


President Obama denounced "irresponsible" Republican critics of his health care law Thursday, saying efforts to "blackmail" him into changing the plan could trigger a government shutdown and a U.S. credit default.

"Now they're threatening steps that actually would badly hurt our entire economy," Obama said during a health care speech in Largo, Md.
---
Like any new major program, "there are going to be some glitches as this thing unfolds," Obama said, but those can be fixed along the way.

Obama said many Republicans are working to try and make the plan fail, but are worried that it will succeed and make them look bad politically.

So if it's a success, it's because of his "vision." If it fails, he has already blamed Republicans. It will be their fault registrations fail to generate the revenues able to cover the financial obligations the program will require. It will be the Republicans' fault premiums rise. It will be the GOP's fault small businesses fail.

Bill Clinton is the original "Teflon President" because nothing ever stuck to him. If the American people let this classless fraud get away with destroying the economy and the healthcare system, we will make Clinton look like he was made of Super Glue, and we will have no one to blame but ourselves.
