I've mentioned this before: The "Obamacare" that Republicans are screaming about as "socialized medicine" and a "government takeover of the healthcare industry"? (Boo! Did I scare you?) That plan is an exact copy of the 1993 Dole-Chafee Republican healthcare reform bill introduced as an alternative to President Clinton's healthcare reform.
That's right: The healthcare reform that Republicans are telling you is so bad was written by Republicans 17 years ago.
Of course, politics require you to take every advantage possible: So while telling you how bad the "socialist healthcare reform" is for America (even though it was originally written by Republicans), the Republican leader is out in front of cameras today telling anybody who will listen that the best parts of the "socialist healthcare reform" were put in there by Republicans (even though they've said before time and again that not a single Republican idea was ever included in the final bill).
Remember this kids: When President Obama does something, no matter what, it's Socialism... and Republicans will tell you that it's the worst thing ever in the whole wide world. When Republicans do the same thing, they'll tell you that it's fantastic, will save the country, and will make your teeth whiter and your breath fresher... and that it was their idea all along and Obama is just a big poopy head for stealing their Fashizzle... except that's its socialism and it will kill you.
Oh for Chrissakes, it's called The Memory Hole. Don't you read Orwell? Republicans are simply asking you to use your doublethink skills: "We are at war with Eastasia. We've always been at war with Eastasia."
