Obama gives any delays that he wishes to and any time that he wants to by unilateral executive fiat. When Republicans offer up a delay that they wish to implement, they are told by Reid and other Dems that "It's (ObamaCare) the law."
And right after saying "It's the law," Obama/Dems feel no obligation to not offer up another delay if and when they feel like it.
Republicans are told that they aren't willing to compromise.
Guess what? They offer up a compromise - they go from wanting to defunding ObamaCare to voting to delay its implementation for one year. And what do they get in return? They are told that it is dead on arrival.
Compromise to Democrats is do what they say when they say it - and they get to delay any part that they wish to, whenever they wish to (along with susbsidies for Congress, Congressional staffers and federal employees).
If Republicans compromise and offer up a delay on ObamaCare - when they wanted to defund it - they are told to shove it - after they were told that they weren't willing to compromise --- and they DID IN FACT compromise.
Gov't shutdown? If so, Dems/Obama/Reid/Pelosi -- you built that!
At least Manchin, the head of the Teamsters, Baucus and other Dems spoke of caution on going forward with this.
If I held Boehner’s seat, I’d send the CR back with Obamacare not only defunded but wiped off the books. When they send it back, I’d do it again with all Executive Dept spending withheld, Air Force 1 grounded, IRS defunded and eliminated with a tax free year for all Americans, all staffers funding withheld with NO back pay when they come back, etc. When they send it back again, make it hurt worse and worse. All the while sending single dept funding bills, military first. Let them go on record shutting down the military funding with votes.
Meanwhile during the months and months long shutdown, America will have a chance to recover.
But, that’s just me. They wanna kill the country, I don’t.
A conservative PAC should make a commercial. List all the groups 0 has excused rom the program. Then compare to the one the GOP has proposed THE INDIVIDUAL AMERICAN PEOPLE!
Obama will negotiate with Iran, but not other branches of the American government. Why is this fact not being pointed out in every press conference?
There, fixed it.
The republicans should have stated that all waivers granted by POTUS are illegal and if the law is implemented it will be implemented fully with no exception, no waivers, and no subsidies for congressional or federal workers.
However, since they (Republican leadership) are so totally and irreversibly disconnected from us out here in the real world, they think that a Pyrrhic victory like ‘delay it a year’ will do something good and make us shut up, wouldn't it?
In their mind, something - anything against Obama (at least what they think would be enough) should shut us up, right?.. They are just so damned clueless. I really have come to believe these people do not want to win against evil any more.
It's just too damned easy to sit up there in DC and placate, appease, lie and equivocate and keep their saunas, gyms, dining rooms, private banking, barbershops, credit/bank unions, parking spots (at work and airport when they have to make that dreaded trip back to lie to their constituents). Damn them....just damn them.

If Ocare is law how can he do that ?.
Oh wait he’s a above the law democrat media is owned.
It’s been said a few different ways, but the title of your thread is a good way to put it, for our communication challenged RINOs that can’t seem to make the case!
And, interestingly, now that he’s repeatedly said he refuses to negotiate, he’s announced he’ll be spending the afternoon calling members of Congress. Could there be another sequester that he’ll later claim wasn’t his idea in the works?
