If Obama vetoes it, then he owns it. Any Democrat who doesn’t vote to overturn the veto would own it.
You try to “fix it” and Obama signs off on the “fix”, then YOU own it.
The law in its entirety is unconstitutional. Anyone who took an oath to uphold and defend the constitution has an moral obligation to work to repeal it. Fixing any part of it without first attempting to repeal it does nothing more than legitimize the original legislation.
Do you favor McConnell violating his oath to try to legitimize a wholly unconstitutional robbery of your liberty? Is that the path you really want your representatives to take?
“If Obama vetoes it, then he owns it. Any Democrat who doesn’t vote to overturn the veto would own it.”
But he already owns it. He is happy to own it. If he wasn’t, then these guys would have been furiously trying to dump it before the elections.
“You try to “fix it” and Obama signs off on the “fix”, then YOU own it.”
If he allows the I-M to die, then the whole thing dies with it.
This isnt to fix it. It is to kill it.
“The law in its entirety is unconstitutional”
Yeah...we tried that route. Didn’t turn out so well.
“Do you favor McConnell violating his oath to try to legitimize a wholly unconstitutional robbery of your liberty? Is that the path you really want your representatives to take?”
These people aren’t God. Continuously sending blanket repeals for show votes will be met with an equal number of vetoes and then you will get a public that will grow tired of the GOP majority just spending their time fruitlessly doing the same thing over and over again.
Then what do we do? Start screaming at them for not magically getting past his veto pen? with maybe 53 Senate seats?
It isnt about getting it fully repealed because we CANT. No matter how much we jump up and down and shake our fists, we dont have the seats.
