While Fox News spins its latest poll results in the direction of “is repealing Obamacare a waste of time or not (my quotes),” the real news is buried deeper in the story.
Fox News: Voters age 65 and over are among those most likely to want to turn back the clock: 57 percent think that would be better than the new law.
Really? 57 percent of voters ON MEDICARE think the rest of us should be trapped in the system that has resulted in 18,000 preventable deaths a year and 52 million Americans without coverage.
Thank you “greatest generation,” for thinking of yourselves only.
Let me say this loud and clear; if Medicare is changed in anyway at all, it must be changed now and for everyone. Not 55 and younger, but for all comfortable Medicare recipients. So there.
Despite these shocking revelations that our seniors don’t give a rats ass about anyone else, health care repeal is not what House Republicans should be focusing on….
Reducing unemployment is seen as the top priority for Congress by 48 percent, followed by reducing the budget deficit at 28 percent. Making changes to the new health care law trails at 15 percent, though it still tops promoting green technology at 3 percent.
Oh, and if you thought the recent Iowa Frank Luntz focus group was a human embarrassment that finally disproved the theory of evolution, what can be said about voters who would go back to the costly dysfunctional, deadly old private health care system:
By a 48-42 percent margin, more voters would rather go back to the health care system that was in place in 2009.
OMG.
