Re: I Can't Stand Romney.
Welcome to Obamacare!
Santorum: “What Governor Romney just said is that government-run top-down medicine is working pretty well in Massachusetts, and he supports it. Now, think about what that means — going up against Barack Obama…you are going to claim, well, top-down government-run medicine on the federal level doesn’t work, and we should repeal it. And he’s going to say, wait a minute, Governor. You just said that top-down government-run medicine in Massachusetts works well. Folks, we can’t give this issue away in this election. It is about fundamental freedom.”
Romney: (referring to individual mandate) “We are insisting on personal responsibility.”
Santorum: “Does everybody in Massachusetts have a requirement to buy health care?”
Romney: “Everyone has a requirement to either buy it or pay the state for the cost of providing them free care.”
Santorum: “Just so I understand this, in Massachusetts, everybody is mandated as a condition of breathing in Massachusetts, to buy health insurance, and if you don’t, and if you don’t, you have to pay a fine.”
Romney: “First of all, it's not worth getting angry about.”
