Textbook example of how the Left defines the narrative

[TboneAgain]

As KenyaCare falls apart at the seams, there's finally some good news in the payback department -- the issue is going to be absolutely radioactive for Democrats this coming November. Sink's defeat in Florida, despite her high profile and the fact that she outspent her opponent by nearly $1 million, is being seen for what it is -- the first in a long line of KenyaCare-related defeats for Democrats, even those who, like Sink, didn't vote for the original KenyaCare bill but don't support outright repeal.

Despite this good news, however, there's still plenty of evidence that the Left continues to define the narrative when it comes to "health care reform," a term which itself is a misnomer designed to attribute to Democrats angelic intentions they don't have. (A more correct term would be "health care insurance nationalization.") KenyaCare -- and anything and everything even vaguely resembling it -- is textbook fascism in the classic sense, but that word is never seen in the public discussion. So far we have failed to get this message across. Byron York -- a good, steady conservative commentator -- provides an example of what I'm pointing out in an article in today's Washington Examiner.

It's an open question whether voters would really welcome Democratic confessions of error in creating Obamacare. Most Democratic candidates probably don't want to learn the answer.

But they have to do something. It's conventional wisdom that Republicans who advocate getting rid of Obamacare have to offer an alternative. Now, it's just as true that Democrats who advocate fixing Obamacare have to offer a fix. Soon.

I've read variations on that sentence dozens, maybe hundreds of times over the past few years. But we have to ask ourselves, "How did it become the 'conventional wisdom' that KenyaCare can only be eliminated if it's replaced by something else?" This entire field of endeavor is (or certainly should be) far outside the legitimate business of the federal government of the United States. How is it that we find ourselves forced to choose between KenyaCare or some other version of health care insurance nationalization? It's like agreeing to choose between paper and plastic when either way you know there's dog shit in the bag.

KenyaCare can and should be attacked and eradicated because of what it is -- fascism. The message we need to get out is that alternatives to KenyaCare that either party might come up with are also fascism, just a different color or flavor. KenyaCare is much more than simply crappy law (though it is certainly that!) -- it is fundamentally incompatible with the best principles of the American ideal.

There is but one fix for commicare, get govt out of it, and let the private sector handle it.
Like all things the govt involves itself with, it either purposely, or inadvertently picks and chooses winners and losers.
In this case, the losers are the people. Wait, that's usually always the case.
