Why keep blaming GOP for health bill?

I am amazed at the number of people writing in who are blaming the big, bad Republicans for killing the health care bill. I had assumed that because they were writing to the newspaper that they were knowledgeable about what goes on in Washington.

Do they even realize that up until the election of Scott Brown, Republicans had no say about what got passed or not in the Senate? Democrats could have passed anything they chose without one Republican vote. Same thing in the House. Since it was not passed before Scott Brown, it was because the bill was evidently so bad even the Democrats couldn't agree on it.

The Democrats keep blaming Republicans and want you to believe it. Unfortunately, the big lie is working for too many of you. It was their own Democratic Party that kept it from being passed.
