He should be asked if he intends to participate in ObammyCare and if he intends to FORCE his staff members to participate also.

It will be too late.

The disloyalty of the GOP to the American people will not be forgotten.

De-funding Obamacare is a false hope. They will levy fines and confiscate entire companies to fund it if need be. Only driving a stake through its heart will rid us of it.

It is really amazing how sever of the R’s are just enabling the Radical or socialist or communist agenda. Even when it’s against the voters’ wishes.

Well maybe that answer will seal the fate of his next election.
With all this talk of terrorists on the loose I hope they aim their anger at our congress people.

That is simple to understand....some one has to subsidize the 30 million uninsured. And that some one is those who presently can afford health insurance.

Why is the cost of insurance increasing? Lots of reasons but three:

1. Mandatory coverage for pre-existing conditions.
2. Expansion of coverage to include payment for routine physicals and exams.
3. All mental health paid on same basis as medical diagnosis.

“De-funding Obamacare is a false hope. They will levy fines and confiscate entire companies to fund it if need be. Only driving a stake through its heart will rid us of it.”

If defunding it doesn’t drive a stake thru it, what will? This is the only power remaining for Congress. It can no longer overturn previous Congresses, or oversee other branches, or set an entire budget.

If the GOP fails to defund it, I believe that party is dead, and then nothing will stop Obama, until/unless a third party arises, which would take decades.

my understanding is...

PPACA’s funding is in perpetuity,
from the law itself. —>

PPACA can not just be ‘zeroed’ on this times budget,
what has to happen is a new law with specific
language to stop funding.

if not correct, please enlighten me.
