What you will get, if he is dumb enough to answer, is a reiteration of all the good intentions of Obamacare and not the actual results, which like each and every government entitlement program accomplishes the exact opposite. Cost less? Nope! Keep your current plan? Nope! Keep your current doctor? Nope! Keep your current hospital? Nope? Lower the deficit? Nope! Cover the fictional 45 million without health insurance? Nope!

Like every single government program based on good intentions it is a miserable failure. Think the war on poverty as just another example. After spending trillions over the last 30 years we actually have more poverty today.....I know, I know.....we just need to spend more, right? How about more federal government involvement in education? Gee, how has that worked out for us. We have gone from the world leader in education to the bottom third of industrialized nations. I know, I know......we just need to spend more, right? I could go on and list the failed promises of each and every one of our entitlement programs but why ruin a good emotion-driven fantasy of the left with facts, logic and reason? It can't penetrate their invincible ignorance anyway.
