"Yet, Obamacare is structured the same as the Medicare D Prescription Drug Program "
You simply must be kidding! Medicare Part D affects only those on Medicare. ObamaCare affects nearly everybody. Part D involves a tiny part of the US economy. ObamaCare affect 1/6 th of the economy.
Part D is entirely voluntary. Obamcare isn't.
With Part D, if you like your drug store-you really can keep your drug store.
That was a real reach to make your claim that Democrats and Republicns are close to the same.
You are somewhat closer on National Security issues---But--
Warrantless wiretapping was started under a republican admin, and enhanced by a democratic administration.
"Enhanced? How about greatly expanded. I don't remember Bush being accused a vacuuming up virtually all US phone calls and e-mails. Was Bush tapping into the phone calls of our allies' leaders?
Yes, Bush and Obama both had surges. The difference? Obama announced the Afghanistan Surge and in the next breath gave the surrender date. Any hope of serious cooperation by the Afghan Government was out the window.
The shear hypocrisy of Obama and the Dems screaming about waterboarding 3 terrorists as TORTURE, them him expanding drone attacks is stunning! Uncounted attacks using Hellfire missiles with a blast radius of 50+yards. God only knows how many innocent bystanders have been killed.
Innocent bystanders killed by waterboarding? ZERO.
