This argument point does not support what you wish.
A person opposing Obama on health care may support another issue, i.e., economic issues, as a higher priority. This may be why they oppose Obama, he's picking a horrible time to spend more money on a less important issue. OTOH, the liberals who ignore government expenditure issues think it's a hot button item where they don't care about spending other people's money.
