With the official view of the Republican party that providing health care for people is a Terrible Thing That Must Be Stopped, it’s nice to see that there are some Republican politicians who are saying that there may be some good things in the law.

Jack Kingston, A Republican politician running for the Senate from Georgia, stated recently that he believes in working with the other party, compromising, and recognizing that there are good and bad parts of Obamacare.

In other words, he just killed his chance of getting the nomination from the GOP, where you must oppose Obama even if he speaks out for puppies, sunshine, and apple pie.

“A lot of conservatives say, ‘Nah, let’s just step back and let this thing fall to pieces on its own.’ But I don’t think that’s always the responsible thing to do,” he said. “I think we need to be looking for things that improve healthcare overall for all of us. And if there is something in Obamacare, we need to know about it.”

He pointed out that he had received letters from people telling him about how Obamacare helped them keep their special needs children on insurance, and he said this is something we should be encouraging. We can fix the law without getting rid of it completely.

Mind you, this guy had consistently voted to repeal Obamacare and thoroughly supported the government cry-baby shutdown over it, so why is he now saying these things? Did he see the light?

I think he was visited by three ghosts one night …
