Obamacare was a Republican idea. http://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2013/08/republicans-supported-obamacare-gingrich-dole-individual-mandate The cornerstone of Obamacare, was originally a conservative idea. It was first proposed by the Heritage Foundation in 1989. And scores of Republicans—not just Mitt Romney—have backed the idea in the past couple of decades. Here are some of the GOPers who supported Obamacare before Obama: 1. Rick Santorum? The Allentown Morning Call reported several times in 1994 that Santorum wanted to "require individuals to buy health insurance rather than forcing employers to pay for benefits." Santorum denies allegations that he ever supported an individual mandate. 2. President George H.W. Bush: In 1991, Mark Pauly, an adviser to the first Bush, and now a conservative health economist, came up with a Heritage-style health care proposal for the president as an alternative to the employer-based mandate that Democrats were pushing at the time. 3. Former Vice President Dan Quayle: He was down with the Heritage idea too. 4. Mitt Romney: Romneycare was Romney's signature legislative achievement as governor of Massachusetts, and it served as a model for Obamacare. During the 2012 campaign, the presidential contender had trouble deciding what his position was on Obamacare, and he deflected the blame for having conceived a similar plan; at one debate he noted that "we got the idea of an individual mandate…from [Newt Gingrich]." 5. Newt Gingrich: Though he reversed his position in May 2011, Gingrich had been a big supporter of the individual mandate since his early days in the House. In 1992 and 1993, when Republicans were looking for alternatives to Hillary Clinton's health care plan, many, including then-House minority whip Gingrich, backed the Heritage idea. (Gingrich has said that most conservatives supported an individual mandate for health insurance at the time.) Twenty of his fellow GOPers cosponsored a 1993 health care bill which included an individual mandate and vouchers for poor people. As health scholar Avik Roy wrote at Forbes in 2012, "Given that there were 43 Republicans in the Senate of the 103rd Congress, these 20 comprised nearly half of the Republican Senate Caucus at that time." Here are those lawmakers: 6. Sen. Bob Dole (R-Kansas) 7. Sen. John Chafee (R-R.I.) 8. Sen. Robert Bennet (R-Utah) 9. Sen. Christopher Bond (R-Mo.) 10. Sen. George Brown (R-Colo.) 11. Sen. John Danforth (R-Mo.) 12. Sen. Pete Domenici (R-N.M.) 13. Sen. David Durenberger (R-Minn.) 14. Sen. Duncan Faircloth (R-N.C.) 15. Sen. William Cohen (R-Maine) 16. Sen. Slade Gorton (R-Wash.) 17. Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) 18. Sen. Mark Hatfield (R-Ore.) 19. Sen. Nancy Kassebaum (R-Kansas) 20. Sen. Dick Lugar (R-Ind.) 21. Sen. Alan Simpson (R-Wyo.) 22. Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) 23. Sen. Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) 24. Sen. John Warner (R-Va.) 25. Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) Now you can stop your lying. Really stop lying. |

It harkens back to the time when they were trying to push a narrative about "apology tours". Pathetically dishonest then, pathetically dishonest now. |
