Rhetorically I have been using "Obamacare" all along as a GOP political gift, certainly not a pejorative. I never did understand why the White House, until recently, shunned its embrace.
It's been years of Democrats allowing the opposition to not only define the terms of engagement, but to define the terms themselves. How I hope it's over, that the Dems will reappropriate words like Obamacare and put some teeth in them to bite the Republicans.

He started embracing the name last year. Its only now that they plastering the name all over the place.
What I would love to see is for Democrats , ALL OF THEM, to embrace the legislation THEY PASSED. Too many of them were running away from it because you had both the left and the right shouting KILL THE BILL.
Glad to see you back PM. I can't come here as often as I used to but I missed ya.

I've always wondered what word drove the teabaggers more crazy: The word "Obama" or the word "care".
