you did notice there are other bills with dates after 1994 that had (R) support and that they weren't just Newt idea right?
There was one: Healthy Americans Act or also known as Wyden Bennett. But I already addressed that.
I guess not.. you said "Gingrich is for mandates but he's not representative on that issue. "
so let's try showing you that you are wrong...again
I give you that Newt's big guy, but that's 25 GOP members right there, if nothing else, that proves you were wrong when you said ""Gingrich is for mandates but he's not representative on that issue. "
That's 19 more GOP members.. if nothing else, that, with the 25 above, proves you were wrong when you said "Gingrich is for mandates but he's not representative on that issue. "
more than Newt there too...hmm I'm seeing a pattern and that pattern in you're wrong when you say "Gingrich is for mandates but he's not representative on that issue. "
there's 5 more..
every time the mandate, that was conceived of by a GOP think tank and brought to congress by GOP congressmen with plenty of GOP support (that was more than just Newt Gingrich) and even supported by GOP member when Liberals brought it up, every time it came up it had some support from the GOP... right up until when?
oh yeah..
until Obama... So when i said "The individual mandate was around before Hillarycare," I was correct
when I said " it was what the GOP was going to 'counter' her idea with.. " I was correct
when I said "The GOP loved the idea right up until Obama used it, then it became evil.. and a r/d issue.." I was correct.
The fact that you ignored all that and still jumped to the "I'm correct" is cute, but it doesn't make you any less wrong..
I'm trying to figure this out. I had already said there hadn't been Republican support for an individual mandate since 1994, so as a "gotcha" you repost the same bills that had some Republican support from 1993. Plus Wyden Bennett, which I also acknowledged had Republican support, although it didn't have an individual mandate. It was a tax. Structurally and constitutionally, they are nowhere near the same. Back a few years ago when we were actually arguing Obamacare, you actually understood the difference. What happened? Why don't you understand that now?
