Obamacare, the best revenge [View all]

They (meaning the right wing repugnants) tried to hang the ACA on Obama. They could not understand that Americans want and need healthcare.
They used the term Obamacare as an invective.
But instead they have memorialized his name and given him an historical legacy.
Most know it was LBJ who gave us Medicare and FDR gave us Social Security.
But future generations will have no doubt who started us down the road to Universal Health Care.
Thanks GOP.
