Trey Gowdy for Speaker!
or another Rock Solid Conservative!
The House GOP can defund ObamaCare enforcement right now by failing to appropriate the money.
True, they can kill it.
The only way the House can kill Obamacare is if Boehner is replaced by someone with a Warrior mindset.
Indeed. The house GOP could have stopped Obama in 2010 and did not. They did however give him all the money he wanted to do his damage. Why people refuse to hold them accountable I will never know. Instead, like raped and beaten wives, they defend their abusers.
I was under the impression the Democrats had the funding for ACA written into the law at the time they passed it. They apparently anticipated the potential of a movement to stop the funding, and thus it was funded in an unusual, perhaps sleight-of-hand legislative move at the time it was passed.
I’m going by memory here, and would appreciate correction, or clarification by any FReeper(s) if I’m in error.
And pigs can fly. Obamacare is a huge benefit for REPUBLICANS, for all politicians. Now they have a wonderful new tool for sucking up votes. When obamacare starts really hurting people the pols make hay by tweaking the system for this group or that, by saving someone’s grandpa or child from being cut off, by getting certain individuals or groups jumped in line, etc, The British have shown the way. conservatives and liberals rail and wail about how bad it is but perish the thought that it might be eliminated. It only takes a dozen years before the people clutch it to their bosoms and would storm Washington if they think anyone might reduce their imagined benefits. The last chance to kill it was with the late continuing resolution on which the Republicans, with the willing cooperation of the Tea Party reps, forthrightly PUNTED.
