http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entries/romney-white-house-not-sleeping-real-well-tonightHe (and other GOPers) are sick to be relishing the prospect of SCOTUS striking down all or most of PPACA tomorrow. No concern, no empathy by (mostly) so-called "Christians" for the people whom will be in the same jam they were in before PPACA became law. I honestly thought that Romney would be the least disgusting/repugnant of the Republican nominees this year.
I was wrong.

(27,787 posts)1) Her son is still on her insurance thanks to the ACA ... if the law is over turned, he gets dropped.
2) Her daughter is now 16, but had a serious cancer at 2. The doctors say that the treatments that saved her live at 2 will probably cause her other issues as she gets older. Can you say PRE-EXISTING CONDITION? Before the ACA passed, my sister's insurance would only cover my niece for the most basic illness or sports injury. After, she was fully covered. If the SCOTUS strikes it all down, my 16 year old niece will again have no coverage past basic illness and injury.
Romney is a dick.

(12,272 posts)He said that if Obamacare was struck down, then it would mean he wasted his whole time in office.
This is such a far-fetched set-up; but he is hoping it will stick.
Remind you of anything? "If the glove don't fit, then you must acquit"?
