Rush Limbaugh thinks the health care exchanges are a front for Dem voter registration efforts

No, really, he does.

http://dailycaller.com/2013/07/02/rush-limbaugh-warns-gop-could-lose-house-in-2016/

Limbaugh said there was still an opportunity for the GOP to gain ground on the Democratic Party, but warned if the health care law stood, it would be used as a political tool for the Democrats.

“I think it’s golden opportunity for the Republicans to get back in people’s good graces and stand for something the American people actually stand for,” he said. “And that is their dislike for this. Look what’s happening to these exchanges, guys. I mean, you’ve been talking about it on your program this morning — California health exchange. Most people think that’s where you’re going to go to buy your health insurance if your employer doesn’t provide it. Turns out it’s gonna be run by the SEIU, the AFL-CIO, Cover California, NAACP — a Democrat-voter registration group running the California health exchange. You show up to get your health insurance, they’re going to register you as a Democrat. They’re going to get you to the polls to vote on Election Day as a Democrat. They’re using Obamacare and these exchanges to grow the Democrat Party. The Republicans are sitting around, twiddling their thumbs, worried about immigration and whether the Hispanics like them or not and being skunked on issue after issue after issue, like this is classic. The 2014 midterms are really, really important. Democrats win the House then there is no such thing as a lame duck last two years for Obama. He’s going to have clear sailing.”


What color is the sky on his planet?

Sorry about the source, but it was actually the least offensive one I could find.

I propose the House pass a bill repealing Obamacare. They haven't tried that, yet, have they?

That's a great idea...we should totally do that. It wouldn't change anything here in Monty County, MD (the polling station nearest my apartment recorded double-digit votes for Romney out of almost 1000 ballots cast.) but that could turn NoVA blue.
