Pardon slow me, but I don’t comprende.

We are talking about refusing to lend the GOP yes to funding. It’s that easy if the GOP can get past the balogna. Hey Weeper, by all means keep on weeping, but weep for the sad state of US healthcare that will exist if Obama “care” gets its full way.

The Republicans hold the majority in the house. They can reject whatever the senate sends back to them. They do not need to pass a bill funding obamacare period! Terry Jeffrey is a solid constitutional conservative. If the house does not fund it, it does not get funded. All the president and senate can do is throw a hissy fit and issue threats. And they are.

Well that is an alternative approach, but the GOP isn’t going to want to do that. After all, not all GOP are devils.

Mitch "Pussy" McConnell seems ready to vote for:

"McConnelCare"

If Mitch votes for Cloture, HE OWNS IT!

And Jim, the Lord will stand up Himself for the right thing. Obamacare does not exalt the God of blessing at all. It exalts petty little self centered bureaucrats and a snickering Satan that is lurking in the corner.

Maybe instead of sitting on your behind in the 2012 election you should have been voting for the Republican senator in your state.”

WTF are you talking about, and why did you immediately make this personal? I have never voted for any third party candidate.

This is kind of stupid of him to do so, as he faces reelection in Kentucky next year, but at least he is honest, unlike the RINO senator of Tennessee Lamar Alexander who pretends to be against 0bamacare

This is not a debatable supposition. It is an irrefutable fact. The fate of Obamacare is controlled completely by Republicans -- period

Sorry, but Obamacare is self-appropriating, i.e. the appropriations are in the original bill, precisely to avoid the current political situation where republicans control one or two of the House, Senate or Prez. All three must agree to stop the existing self-appropriations.

You can add Sen Jeff Sessions. Even that amnesty guy (Boo!) in Florida Rubio is standing up with Cruz against obamacare. But don’t really trust him or Paul. Both are unreliable as conservatives, even if they do the right thing on this.

Obamacare: Besides the military, the only budget area where democrats express phony concerned about “fiscal responsibility”.

When the Republicans let “0”Care happen they will then own the Train Wreck instead of the Dems. A double win for the Lib/Pros.

Could Obama and Senate Democrats and the liberal media offer anything of such great value that House Republicans should trade it for this?

No.

If Boehner was being the least bit honest, that assessment would be correct. But they're being offered something, and we don't know what it is. If we knew, we would not approve.
