Oh good grief.  The Act has been in effect for what?  2 weeks?   

People haven't even begun to feel the pain this legislation has wrought.  What a stupid contention.

It is more than despise for me.

I knew it was over when the GOP publicly flogged Ted Cruz.  They've never used such harsh terminology about Obama.  They disgust me.

We have two parties establishment(big spending, "government" money. big government, corporatism, main street, status-quo, orgy of special interest, big taxes, stimulus) and anti-establishment - (low taxes, anti-big spending, anti-over-regulation, anti-special interests, free market policies...

La Tourette's (former GOP congressman) PAC is a prime example... getting a ton of money from labor unions and the chamber of commerce - both the unions and chamber are now on the same side.  BTW La Tourette was a big "green energy, environmental regulations guy.

GE made $16 billion last year and yet we the tax payers are still giving THEM money...

BTW McConnell is running ads in KY saying he is "friendly" to coal while he did nothing to block funding for the EPA in this latest budget... and the EPA is destroying coal.

Cruz deserved at least some castigation; whether worthwhile or not, he did pull a stunt that got too close to the line.  I'm not saying he shouldn't have done it, I'm just saying that, having done it, he should be willing to accept the consequent lumps.  Just think of it as somewhat like, but nowheres near the same thing as, the civil rights protestors in the 60s who broke the segregation laws by, e.g., sitting in the whites-only section of a restaurant, and who then accepted being arrested and criminally punished to testify to the unfairness of those laws.

What the heck are you talking about. Cruz didn't break any laws or cross any lines - unless you happened to want Obamacare to be law and us likely going to end up with single payer as a result...... he did what I wish the entire damned GOP would do.  He stood and he fought.
