25 unforgettable Obamacare quotes
By POLITICO PRO HEALTH STAFF | 07/16/2013

POLITICO looks back at some of the memorable quotes from the past four years of Washington warfare over the health law.



“It will be his Waterloo. It will break him.” — Former Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), July 2009

"The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down syndrome will have to stand in front of [President Barack] Obama’s 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil." — Sarah Palin, Aug. 2009

“You think you've heard these same excuses before, you're right. When this country belatedly recognized the wrongs of slavery, there were those who dug in their heels and said, 'Slow down. It's too early. Let's wait. Things aren't bad enough.’” — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid urging passage, Dec. 2009
