Romney says he accepts being linked to Obamacare

Source: AP

Mitt Romney says it's a compliment to be called the grandfather of Obamacare, the health care law championed by President Barack Obama and scorned by Republicans - including Romney himself.

Obama has said the health care law Romney backed while governor of Massachusetts is the basis of the federal Affordable Care Act, enacted in 2010.

Speaking at a Univision forum Wednesday night, the Republican presidential nominee said that now and then Obama calls him the grandfather of Obamacare.

Romney said, "I don't think he meant that as a compliment, but I'll take it." He went on to defend the Massachusetts law but says it is wrong for the federal government to take that approach.

Well it looks like Multiple Mitt strikes again. Better be careful Mitt sounds like your risking being labeled a FLIP FLOPPER.

The site is entirely in Burmese with pictures. I cannot read Burmese, therefore I could not tell you what you would be missing nor even offer an opinion.

I hope you enjoy this, my favorite website: DU.

Good luck.

I was for it
before I was fiercely against it
before I was wholeheartedly for it
before I was genuinely against it
before I was supremely for it ...

You can't make this shit up.
It's like watching a tennis match.
