Just wait a few minutes for O'Reilly to have one of his trademark :argh: momments. Then point out to your room mate how "emotional" O'Reilly's arguement is.
This never works. One thing in regards to how the far right operate in terms of their ideology that I've come to realize over time is that whenever they talk about "reason," what they actually mean are just their prejudices. Unless you already agree with them, nothing you can say to them will sound reasoned to them, no matter how well it is supported by actual facts and logic, because it doesn't conform to their already-existing prejudices. Note, for example, that this is also how Ayn Rand's brand of ideology worked.

They might also try to move the goalposts to "look at all these people who are still uninsured!"

Obamacare Real Enrollment: Just 1.7% of Uninsured Covered

In a sane world, the Democratic response to this should just be "you know, that's a great point, and reason enough to continue the work on our health care system that we started when we passed Obamacare." Unfortunately, that's not the world we live in :sigh:
