Shocking revelation: Dem Senator thinks people dislike ObamaCare because they're racists!

Why are we just hearing about this now!?!?


You may have thought that people disliked ObamaCare because it forces them to purchase something they don't want. Maybe you were under the impression that they refused to embrace the ACA due to the fact that it's raising premiums and deductibles while simultaneously limiting access to doctors and hospitals. Perhaps you thought they were angry that the plans they liked were cancelled.

Well, you were wrong. According to a 100%-totally-new-and-not-at-all-outdated-or-antiquated-claim, people don't like ObamaCare because ...they're racists! I know. I'm shocked too. However, that's the message from Democrat Senator Jay Rockefeller. Rockefeller is retiring, so he was probably cleaning out his office and found a stack of Organizing for America memos from 2009. Still, even though he's the last guy to the party, he's going to let the "racism" accusations fly.

“I’ll be able to dig up some emails that make part of the Affordable Care Act that doesn’t look good-especially from people who made up their mind that they don’t want it to work because they don’t like the president. Maybe he’s of the wrong color, something of that sort. I’ve seen a lot of that and I know a lot of that to be true. It’s not something you’re meant to talk about in public but it’s something I’m talking about in public because that is very true.”
Huh? "Not something we're meant to talk about in public?" This is the only thing they ever talk about in public. It's all we've heard them say for the last five years. It's their answer to virtually everything. It's simply astonishing that this doddering buffoon is willing to get up there and display the level of intellectual dishonesty required to pretend that this worn out lie is some kind of brand new revelation.
