The GOP has been 100% correct about all the damage there would be from Obama's agendas.

Not one Republican voted for this hideous failure of Obamacare and the majority of Americans were against it. When Ted Kennedy's State even shot Obamacare down, Obama for a few hours actually admitted that the American people had spoken. But then he and Nancy Pelosi got together and decided to force it through anyways.

Do people who vote for Democrats care that these elite socialist liars spit in your face? Not one bit! You will even vote for Hillary who supports this failed plan.

Republicans explained precisely what would happen to our  healthplans, our premiums, our doctors, etc.
They explained how healthy young people would take the penalty rather then paying such huge premiums and deductibles with Obamacare.
It is collapsing all around us and what do these fool liar democrats say? They say, well it needs some tweaking. LOL, it needs to be buried in the dust bin of history as the worst piece of legislation ever forced on Americans.

Repubicans also said that Obamacare's mandates on Business would hurt our economy, kill jobs, create more part time workers, keep wages down, and of course they were 100% correct. The statistics show this has been the slowest recovery following a recession in many many decades.

The Democrat's true goal is a one payer Government controlled healthcare( SOCIALISM). Don't worry that Government has bankrupted every social program it ever touched. They just keep printing more money till the day comes when all the ponzy schemes are no longer feasible.

If you vote for Hillary, you are like the mindless sheep who are told how you should spend your money, what your States and public schools MUST DO. As long as someone esle is being forced to give you free stuff on demeaning social programs, you are fine with it.

GET SOME PRIDE and start voting for America once more. Lets get back to a nation with real manufacturing jobs that pay enough to live on.

Vote for anyone but Democrats!

Gruber, the architect, says it's working as planned. What a laugh-riot!

Except jobs have increased, wages are going up, and involuntary part-time work is down - so, they were actually 0% correct.

- 79 consecutive months of private sector job growth resulting in about 15 million new jobs

- Real median household income grew 5.2 percent from 2014 to 2015, the fastest annual growth on record.

It's sad that people like yourself are so deceptive and can never admit the simple facts.

Yes, FINALLY for the first time in Obama's 8 long years, we had some wage gains. Our last GDP numbers were barely above 1% and barely keeping ahead of another recession.

The only reason our economy has not gone back into recession is because they have kept interest rates at nearly zero % for Obama's entire term!

They did not like keepng rates so low because the Fed's only tools to combat risk of falling back into recession is lowering the interest rates. If our rates are already near zero, they have no mesns of cutting interest rates to avoid a recession.

The only reason the Fed has kept these rates historically low for most of Obama's term, is because OBAMA'S WAR ON BUSINESS HAS GIVEN US A DEAD ECONOMY THAT NEVER GROWS ABOVE ANEMIC LEVELS.

Keep spewing the rhetoric from the Left while intelligent people know the truth.

Do you work for the Democrat party? You sure sound like you do.

Note that it doesn't say the fastest annual growth rate in 8 years, it says "the fastest annual growth rate ON RECORD" - meaning since they started keeping record in 1967 - so, better than under Nixon, Carter, Reagan, both Bushes and even Clinton.
