That’s the subject of my latest *Kaiser Health News* [column](http://www.kaiserhealthnews.org/Columns/2011/June/062711cannon.aspx):

> [Obamacare](https://www.cato.org/bad-medicine/) passes two milestones this month. It has been exactly two years since the first version of the legislation appeared in Congress. And it has now enjoyed exactly two years of [solid public opposition](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/07/30/healthplan_n_725503.html). Yet this month has been harsher than most.

It is almost enough to make you feel sorry for ObamaCare. Almost.
