lol Yeah. There has been a massive backlash over this, once people 
figured out that, "Whoops, this Obamacare thing is actually what I have 
my insurance through, and the people I stupidly helped elect want to 
kill it over *all of the stuff I actually like about it*."

Apparently, listening to the people that have been telling them all 
along that Trump, the Tea Party, and all these damn American 
hyper-libertarians was cutting our collective throats wasn't enough. Two 
of the most perfect cartoons for this idiocy too, both commented on by a 
blogger I read a lot today:
