BS. This is an AP story (lie). Florida hates it. A Mason Dixon poll last Friday showed 25% of seniors like it. 34% of Floridians liked it.

Boehner and the House will DEFUND it on Jan 2011 if the GOP takes tha House..

Hopefully after the November elections adding a few Tea Party patriots into the Halls of Congress will give the GOP the kick in the ‘nads that it so deserves...to either de-fund ObamaCare or repeal it altogether (tho I doubt it could be the latter, thanx to Obama’s veto power).

I believe it. The GOP has NEVER repealed any entitlement program when it had the opportunity to do so, and worse, it has enacted new entitlement programs when it did have power.

I'd love to be disproved on this if the GOP really does repeal 0bamacare, but I am not getting my hopes up.

I just saw a great example of Obamacare portrayed in the mini-series “AMERIKA” before the first commercial came on. (Sorry not on tv. I have it on VHS.) A long line of people outside a clinic in the middle of nowhere were waiting to get inside to a crowded waiting room where they were indoctrinated while waiting. Doctor, who was exiled from Philidelphia, had to let a man die because of regulations....

Although Cornyn and Hutchison are beyond useless. How a strong Republican state throws up losers like John (”What this economy needs is more illegal immigrants”) Cornyn, Kay Baily Hutchison and Rick (”We can presume your 9-year-old will get STDs”) Perry is just amazing.

Texans, you’re doing a sucky job. New Yorkers, I could expect this bunch from. But New Yorkers WANT statists.

Ha! I knew it! A bunch of these guys were chomping at the bit, stomping their feet, shaking with the desire to “reach across the aisle, my friends” and support Obammer. They would have if they could have gotten away with it. Now that they can pin it on the Democrats, they think they can. I say call a joint session, chain the doors shut and set the whole place ablaze. It’s not like we were going to losing anything of value.

Conservatives have been commenting on this propaganda.

This is more media garbage thrown at conservatives to make them back down; not going to happen.

This is not about healthcare or tax credits, this is about a blatant socialist takeover and we are not going to have it in the United States.

We are going to have Obamacare defunded beginning January 2011.

We are going to push for conservative majorities at both federal and state level who are going to call for proposing an amendment to the Constitution to repeal the 16th Amendment and to rein in the Commerce Clause abuses of the past.

The amendment will be ratified by 2013 and will signal the death of socialism in the United States.

We need to pass the following amendment contained in the following short excellent article because the Left needs to be taught a lesson they will never forget so the world will understand that we as Americans are fundamentally free and will never follow the socialist model.

Here is the short article containing the proposed amendment:

And below is information from knowledgeable Freepers on details of proposing an amendment by Convention.

We need to take control of the republican primaries so that the party is ours (conservatives).

I live in Fla. and my Democrat neighbors who voted for Obamanation and were vehement in believing he was going to turn the economy around in the first few months. I gave them Mark Levin’s book Liberty and Tyranny at Christmas and the husband came over here a few days ago cussing him out like a storm! They look worried and keep bringing up how bad things are. The tide is turning on him.

The important thing for the Republicans to do is “not take responsibility”, which should be easy for them. But by this I mean that Republicans should endorse the idea of a constitutional convention by the individual States.

The States can decide to renounce the national debt, end Social Security, Obamacare, Medicare and Medicaid. They can decide to slash the size and spending of the federal government by half or more, and strip it of the unconstitutional powers that it has seized.

And it can’t be blamed on the Republicans, or the Democrats, for that matter.

Because it takes 38 States to agree on any changes, it is likely that as radical as what is above, the States would be willing to do it, to get their power back, which the federal government stole.

In other words, the Republicans can be like a small child who has made a terrible mess. Afraid they will get a beating, they don’t like it when their parents intercede to stop the chaos, *until* they realize that the parents want to clean up things far more than punish their kids.

In doing so, the individual States as a group will take care of a century or more of bad behavior by the federal government, and leave it in a much tidier state, and one which runs better, is more popular, and owes no money. With shiny new rules to keep it this way.

So this is why the #1 platform of the Republican party should be to encourage the States to resolve to hold a constitutional convention.

Good job on the conversion, but to be blunt, screw them for helping bring this disaster upon us. They DESERVE whatever pain comes from ObamaCare and zero’s other socialist policies.

I know, not very Christian of me, but there it is...
