We know it is extremely difficult to repeal legislation once it's signed. More smoke being blown up our @sses here. Congressman - STOP THE BILL NOW!
(Cartoon robot voice) - "Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!"
> Congressman - STOP THE BILL NOW!
Republicans do not have the votes to stop the bill in the House. They might in the Senate, but it will be difficult and Senate Democrats can push it through anyway by using the “reconciliation option”.
The message, I believe, is aimed at Democrats who now have to decide if they should sacrificed their careers by supporting the bill that possibly has not future.
Republicans: If elected, we'll repeal this!
Conservative electorate: You shouldn't have let it get this far.
[Daleks: Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate!]

The GOP has no chance in trying to stop this bill now if Dems got their heads out of their asses and just rammed it through
40 seat majority in the House
60 in the senate
Dem POTUS
The 2010 threat is really the only line of defense here that *could* have teeth
Yes, I wonder if the Republicans are just trying to use this as a pretext to get elected! Mercy, they have so much to correct that if they were to get elected, they would have to spend all of their time just trying to correct their own party’s excesses, much less the Democrats!
First thing they could do is to promise to cut back the Federal Government by 30% minimum. Even after firing all that extra weight they could still get rid of another 10% without trying....so where are there promises for that?
I can think of several departments (with several thousand overpaid workers (term used lightly) that could be abolished overnight without effecting the country whatsoever! Why is it that they continue to work on the peripheral with their lightweight promises?
Well, I’ll tell you, because they are no different than the Democrats in hoping for big government - just different groups in power! We have no chance here - until a third party comes to power and that is so slim that it will probably never happen.
So...that leaves us, ordinary Americans with NO vote! We can vote for only the lesser of evils and the slower of the government expansionists... wow, what a bargain.
The Federal Government concept visualized by our forefathers has been completely turned on its head. The States have no control (even though it was granted to them in the Constitution). We have a Supreme Court that will not enforce our Constitution. The only way out is for the people to have their say...
