Well, no doubt IF Republicans did control BOTH houses of Congress AND did control the VETO pen, the Republicans COULD repeal Obamacare.

But we don’t....

And so we find Democrats lusting for a kamekazi-style attack on “government” by Tea Party Republicans BEFORE the next election.

They think that, after a Democrat landslide in that election (triggered by people whose SSA and military paychecks were “shut-down by Republicans”), Obama can use his new majority in the House to accelerate his plan for the destruction of America.

Why does the Tea Party seem to think that a “government shut-down” would NOT shut-down the GOP?

Dream on. There wasn’t one thing the last GOP President rammed through Congress when the GOP had complete control. The GOP “could” do a lot but never do. That’s the crux of the problem right there. Dems fight to win. The GOP does the bidding of their big money donors. Guess who is winning?

“Why does the Tea Party seem to think that a “government shut-down” would NOT shut-down the GOP?”

First and foremost, there is NO such thing as a “Tea Party.” When you speak about the Tea Party, you are actually talking about the American people at large!

Second, this time around (not shutting down the government) defunding Obamacare is supported by the majority of Americans all across this Nation!

Third and finally, the government shuts down at 5:00 P.M. every day, and on Saturday and Sundays, including all holidays! The American people (Tea Party) helped the GOP (conservatives) take the US House in 2010 for the specific purpose of blocking and STOPPING Obama’s policies in their tracks! Every GOP candidate ran on the platform of “defunding Obamacare” and getting rid of the law. Now that they have a chance of de-funding the law, the GOPe is getting cold feet, attacking the conservatives within the party who are actively living up to their promises to the American people who elected them to office. The GOPe had better take notice of what happens to elected officials who do not listen to their constituency, exactly what happened in Colorado and two (2) socialist lost their jobs!

Ted Cruz, Rand Paul and Mike Lee are listening to the voice of the American people and are standing up to this out of control US Government by negotiating a budget deal that simply does not include the funding of Obamacare on behalf of the American people (Tea Party) PERIOD!!
