All according to plan, right?

Definitely going according to the plans of those who have planned to obstruct the law as best they can.

Nonsense.  If Obama hadn't vetoed all those reforms passed by the Republican House and Senate, the healthcare plan problems would all have been addressed.

I have the opportunity to purchase health care I would otherwise not have access to, despite your attempts to prevent me from doing so. 

So sorry, motherfucker--you want to kill me, your niggerhating ass is going to have to catch a connecting flight to Maryland and do it yourself.

Chillax, brah. Remember I said I was glad you got some benefit from it.

And I was fighting for your freedom not to carry insurance if you didn't want it.

No, what you were really doing is fighting for him to not have any affordable options to purchase insurance.

So touching.  We are truly fortunate to have patriots like yourself willing to defend default choice logic. 

Thank you for protecting my right to not buy Diet Coke.
