Bill Clinton: Court Ruling Against Obamacare Would Cause Backlash Against Republicans

Posted by | June 25, 2012 15:02 | Filed under: Top Stories


Americans will ultimately feel they’ve lost something if the Affordable Care Act is struck down, warns Bill Clinton.

Clinton predicted that if the law is declared unconstitutional, Republicans will suffer a backlash when millions of Americans calculate what they have lost. Before the Affordable Care Act passed, two thirds of all the applications for bankruptcy were because of health-care emergencies, a consequence likely to return if health care inflation again rises precipitously.

 Also, if Republicans had played ball with President Obama, unemployment would be at 7.3%:

By Clinton math, Republicans’ score on job creation since they were given control of the House is negative by 670,000 people. “They refused to back the president in his support for state and local government, and that has allowed 670,000 teachers, police officers, firefighters, and others to be laid off,” Clinton asserts. “If they had supported the president, the unemployment rate would be 7.3 percent instead of the current 8-plus percent.”
