Outside The Court, Protesters Face Off Over 'Obamacare'

Unfortunately, the Obama Administration lost this battle 2 years ago. They allowed the Tea party to drive the narrative and did not fight back. They allowed them to go on TV and just tell lies about the benefits of the Affordable Healthcare Act. They lost the message and they have not gotten it back. The best people to be out on TV, radio talking about health care is Michelle Obama and Valeria Jarrett. They both know how to connect with people in such a way that people would not be confused any longer about the benefits of the law.

As U.S. Supreme Court justices opened their historic three-day hearing of arguments on President Obama's health care plan, hundreds of protesters from across the country flocked outside the court singing, chanting and arguing with one another.

Supporters and opponents of the law engaged in a sing-song call-and-response debate just in front of the court's towering marble steps.

"We love Obamacare!" shouted supporters.

"No, we don't!" responded members of the Tea Party Patriots, one of the most vocal and disapproving groups of the law present at the court Monday.

Sometimes the exchanges became personal. Like when an opponent of the health care law shouted, "Real women buy their own birth control" to marching supporters who emphatically replied, "We are real women."
