@SpeakerBoehner @WhiteHouse Well, Mr. Speaker, it’s time to reveal that Republican alternative plan for health care. Please, show us all.

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) November 14, 2013

In response:

@BarackObama … and by doing that you’re going to step on top of the remainder of us who have insurance

— Jonathan Sharp (@jdsharp) November 14, 2013

@BarackObama You really expect us to believe anything that comes from you? You cared so much about us that you lied and doubled our ins cost

— William Moll (@william_moll) November 14, 2013

@BarackObama what about the 93 million the @WhiteHouse knew would have their healthcare canceled?

In response:

@HHSGov @Sebelius Which is a colossal failure. Only to be outdone by the even larger colossal failure if and when ACA is fully implemented.

@HHSGov @Sebelius you only need 2,900,000 more people to make it work!! Thanks for nothing! #pathetic #Obamacare

55% Rate Obama’s Handling of #HealthCare As Poor… http://t.co/6wr1IZxiVU #Obamacare

— Rasmussen Reports (@Rasmussen_Poll) November 15, 2013

In response:

@Rasmussen_Poll The other 45 % are brain washed.

— Ronster3065 (@ronster1325) November 15, 2013

@Rasmussen_Poll I can’t believe it’s only 55%. I was expecting more in line of 70%. I know his base will never turn on him, but come on.

Larry Leahy Let the 86 percent of Americans who are satisfied with their plans keep them and address ways to provide coverage for the remaining 14 percent

Barbara Holmes Our healthcare only became inferior when Obamacare emerged. It was quite serviceable before Obamacare.

Melanie Fletcher Stand strong Dr. Michael Burgess! This unaffordable care act has to go!

Addie Dupre Old Repeal the entire thing. There is nothing good about it.
