But you keep throwing things into this stew to try to add up the flavor to it and make it more attractive so that people will taste it. And eventually, no matter what you put in that pot of that toxic stew, it still started with a tainted old soup bone. It's still tainted meat in that stew, and you can't change that, no matter how much you add to it. So we have this toxic stew, and the American people have decided that they reject it. They don't want a pot full of toxic stew or a bowlful or a ladleful or a spoonful. They want no measure of this toxic stew called Obamacare or Pelosicare or Troikacare, as I call it sometimes. The American people have spit it out. They have spit it out time after time after time, going clear back to last July and August.
