I'll Talk To You Later About This...

I've decided not to comment extensively on the passage of Obamacare for one simple reason--I'm really angry.

No doubt there are plenty of places on the Internet, cable television and radio that you can go to hear people rant and rave about this. I don't want to--I want to win. Winning takes a clear strategy, extensive planning and a disciplined execution.

The Democrat behavior in this matter has been very uncharacteristic, and at first glance, desperate beyond anything I've seen in politics which normally operates on generational time scales. The history of all the various Democrat-initiated social programs has been to create a reservoir of political will though the use of the Democrats message machine--witness the stem cell debate, global warming, gay rights, etc., etc... They then use that to engineer bi-partisan support, as in the case of immigration reform.

This time around, it was practically an armed insurgency.

Why the change in tactics? What is the end game? Is it a winner or a loser?

These are the questions I want to be able to answer, but I can't while I feel this incredible urge to punch someone in the face...
