Rep. Ruben Kihuen needs to look at Obamacare facts

Rep. Ruben Kihuen wants Republicans to stop hurting Nevadans when it comes to health care (Tuesday Review-Journal). Rep. Kihuen needs a history lesson.

Obamacare, which is imploding around “hard-working Nevadans,” was passed with no Republican votes. The attempt to repeal was prevented by every Democrat and three misguided and revenge-driven Republicans. Republicans didn’t write this thing, predicted the implosion, and do not own it.

It would be a good thing for Rep Kihuen to face facts. It is not the Republicans who created this mess. What say he walks across the aisle, puts politics aside and helps “hard-working Nevadans.”

It is the Democratic Party that wants Obamacare to live and — like Santa — live forever.
