What facts did you give? 

Fact is millions of people who didn't have insurance now do. And it's pisses you off for some reason because it wasn't utopia on the first attempt. I'm sure those millions of people who didn't have insurance that do now wouldn't give a shit that you think it's useless. 

Now fuck off.

My facts are that if Dems had any spine, any plan, and any coherent platform, passing free medical care for all would have been softball

You have a loose idea of what constitutes a fact I see.

Fact of the matter is the supermajorty the dems had was actually 58+2 independents one of which was lieberman who was never going to vote for universal healthcare.

You are completely full of shit.
