Imagine the federal government is a restaurant and nationalized health care is today's special.

"Hello, I'm Obama and I'll be your server today.  Our special is comprehensive health care for all! "
 
"Is it any good?" asked the customer, John Q. Public, reading the menu.

"It's my absolute favorite!" oozed the waiter. "Let me bring you some."

"I don't think so."

"Why not?  do you think it's too expensive? Don't worry about that, I'll pay for it ."

"How in the world are you gonna pay for this?"

"I make a lot in tips."

"Don't bother, I don't want it.

"But I told you not to worry about price!"

"It is too expensive but that's not why I don't want it."

"Is it because you don't think there's enough to go around?  Don't worry, I can cut it into little tiny pieces so everyone gets the same amount."

"First of all, there's not enough.  Second, I don't want you, the waiter, telling me how much I can have.  Third, that's not why I don't want it."

"Well, if it's not the price-"

"And it is too expensive!"

"And it's not the service--"

"Which is horrible but that's not why I don't want it."

"Then why don't you want it?" Obama asked, perplexed.

"Because it's poison!!"

"Well!" chuffed Obama.  "You're just the party of 'NO!"
