Why are the Pubs silent about the delay of ACA’s employer mandate and all the granted exemptions until after the mid-term elections? Because they are not really an opposition party, they want this as badly as the Dem’s, since they expect to get their turn at the trough again soon. They need to let the Dems win in 2014, otherwise the Pubs would have both houses and could eliminate ACA. The Pubs will never get rid of ACA, they will just *reform* it....
F the Pubs.
Why wouldn't they be silent? Those who stand to benefit immediately from the Administration's action (i.e., large employers) are those within the corporate "Chamber of Commerce" crowd to whom the GOP is most beholden. Do you think those entities have any abstract interest in the "rule of law"? Their interests extend no further than their own bottom lines. They'd wipe their own ass with the U.S. Constitution if they figured that, by doing so, they'd save a few pennies on toilet paper.
That is the GOP's true "constituency."
