Your understanding of how people ought to make conclusions and operate in the world is deeply flawed. No one, including you, has the time and means to find the level of specificity you seem to require in order to decide what their impressions are in terms of the motives of other people. Republicans during Obama’s Presidency many times passed legislation to dismantle the ACA. They did so knowing he would veto the bills. He did so. When they gained both houses of Congress and the Presidency they didn’t dismantle it. The ACA is still around. They have no replacement idea for it because it’s already their idea. We won’t agree on anything. You consider minor differences between Romneycare and what the Heritage Foundation proposed on the 90s to what was implemented by the ACA sufficient to conclude that the ACA wasn’t a Republican idea. It’s like saying a car’s color isn’t red because it’s ruby red and not perfectly, exactly red. This isn’t how reasoned discourse is done. No amount of nitpicking will dissuade an objective person from thinking that Obamacare is close enough to Romneycare to qualify for the label of a Republican idea. I’ve noticed over the years that you engage in this tactic quite often. Someone talks at a general level and your response is to nitpick at the fine details. It’s as if you don’t understand how language is used in everyday conversation. You are like the people who say the Soviet Union wasn’t communist because they never implemented true communism. They ignore how the word was used in normal colloquially. While it was never truly communist it is correct to say that it was a communist nation. Substantive policy actions are different than mere words. This is naivety in the extreme. Republicans passed legislation to allow 9/11 victims to sue Saudi Arabia. Obama signed it. Then McConnel blamed Obama for signing it. Political grandstanding happens. I’ve been on this site since the beginning. I create a new account periodically. We gone back and forth several times. I will never respond to you again.
