Why did ALL of the GOP in congress oppose it?[/quote]

Is that a serious question? The party of NO. Had they been serious about health care reform there would have been logical discussion instead of fallacious claims about the content of the proposals. (six months ago there was a list posted here, supposedly written by a republican constitutional lawyer, of close to a 100 bad things in the original house bill. I read the entire bill. I posted a response to each one. 98% of them were out and out falsehoods. Death panels. Free coverage for undocumented aliens. Funding for ACORN health clinics. The other 2% were either partially true or accurate but absurd complaints.)

They made a mistake. As a party they believed that politically, an Obama failure meant a Republican victory. This time, hyper-partisanship did not work. They failed. They were wrong.
