How can he be blackmailed by something everyone seems to know about?

nothing. He is what he is. It is a team effort to put these parasites into the very powers of government. That is why you see GOP appointees that side with the Dems....that was part of the plan all along.

I'd say only Useful Idiots would disregard the "perception" that this isn't political...

It would have cost much less in the long term and still accomplished the goal of covering more Americans.

That wasn't the goal at all. The goal was to take over that part of the economy. The number of uninsured is still the same but nobody seems to care about that.

Who do we know that has promised to get rid of it? Promised from the day of his announcement that he would repeal it? Ted Cruz.

It cannot be gotten rid of.

Things are too far gone.

“this law IN ITS ENTIRETY can be wiped out by electing a President and Congress that wants it gone...”

Well, that ain’t gonna happen. Maybe we can get a President. Longshot, but maybe.

Congress? Forget about it. We’ve been trying that angle for 20 years now, it doesn’t matter how many “conservatives” we elect, they just go to Washington and then whore themselves out and accomplish nothing for us.

Maybe this is some weakness inherent in Conservatism? The Marxist ideologues seem loyal to the death. Conservatives whore themselves out at the first opportunity.

That sounds like a liberal

I'm hardly that.

....*slamming* something, while accepting it.

This country already has some socialist institutions, many of which were in place before I was born. Social Security. Welfare. Medicaid. "Progressive" tax rates.

Short of leaving the country, I don't have a choice but to accept living with them. I can (and do) support political candidates who (I hope) will turn back the tide, but I'm not optimistic.

Why in the world would ANY right minded person even mention “adopting” socialism?

For goodness' sake, I don't want more socialism! I do think it likely that we will have more of it in the future, though. That's certainly the historic trend, is it not?

BTW, welcome to Free Republic.

Thank you.

>>The government has lost the legitimacy of “consent of the governed”

The idealistically experimental “consent of the governed” failed to take into account the “tyranny of the majority”.

And when Nature rules, again, the Due Penalties are going to be harshly inescapable.

Of Course, I can't expect anything more from the Branch of Government that helped spark off the Civil War.

And Segregation.

And Abortion

And Deathcare round one.

Hey, people had a chance to throw out the people funding Obamacare three times and refused to. They told us evil purists we hated America and the Democrats were worse.

Those people need to sit down and shut their liberal voting mouths Because they repeatedly elected the people funding this fiasco. Not Roberts and the supremes. Republican voters. Not Democrats. Republican voters.

“Guess we just have to wait for Texas to secede at this point, and all go there.”

Texas refused to expand Medicaid ‘cause we knew the state would have to pay for it after the period the feds were paying it.

About the homo marriage decision to come down from supreme court tomorrow or Tuesday: We, meaning Texas, voted to put in our constitution, marriage is between a man and a woman and we passed another law reinforcing that this session. This new law says no judge or other person who can marry people, can “legally” marry two of the same sex.

We passed this law because a judge married two women and turned in the marriage document and that marriage was on the books as a marriage. Our Governor, Greg Abbott, abolished that marriage (don't mess with our wheelchair bound governor), then this extra law was passed to warn those judges and ministers of all kinds that those marriages are not legal.

If the Supreme Court says our state has to recognize gay marriage as legal, our anger will be such that we may consider seceding from the union as you suggest. Of course, we won't but that is the weight of one more flutter of the butterfly wings that will eventually create chaos. Once chaos, in math/physics/all matter, starts, it can't be stopped. Come on down to Texas then for we will be our own nation.

When does Dear Leader appear to crow about his latest victory over the rule of law? I’ll be sure to avoid the TV or radio.

>>You really should end it with “< /sarc>”

Was that not really self-evident?

The progressives are very adept at manufacturing perception in other people’s HR files.

That whole “thou shalt not bear false witness” thing is sooo 1950’s.

Jim Himes (US Rep) tweeted that more than a few Republicans are openly relieved by this ruling.

I don’t disagree on your assessment of our chances, but that’s how it works. We’ve not had a good conservative ruling for this entire session so I don’t expect that to change tomorrow or Monday with the remaining rulings. We’re on a losing streak, but I can’t help but think this is how the 60’s and 70’s felt (before my time) when some of the old ways were dying. The pendulum swings both ways...
