In previous interviews, Boehner has pledged he will go for repeal of Obamacare in the House (recognizing that it cannot be passed over a Presidential veto, but it can be de-funded).
Further, Sen. Jim DeMint has stated that he believes the House can be counted upon to do this. But he is uncertain about the Senate.
Accordingly, I call misinformation on your post.
At least Hugh is beginning to ask the right questions.

Veto da One!
boehner wont be the majority leader, a tea party candidate will be, he will be sat in a corner and told to shut up and let the adults show him how it is done.
And people look at me like I’m a wacko reprobate when I mention the words “Civil War”?
The interview was extremely disheartening. It may soon become a two front war...
I noticed that too. Sounds like bs. At least I hope it’s bs.
I sure hope is doesn’t become Senate Majority Leader. The guy has no spine.
Jim DeMint for Majority Leader!
Being as his wife is employed by a lobbying firm (if I remember an former article correctly) and he likes money ... repeal is not eminent.
We must elect people in November who will repeal. That is the only true option.
REALITY CHECK for those calling for Boehner’s head(if indeed this account is true): This election will NOT enable the Rep’s to repeal ObamaCare, even if they got a majority in the House and Senate.
They would need a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate PLUS a 2/3 veto-overriding majority in the House. Obama holds this little tiny thing in his hand called a veto pen, essentially voiding any movement against his deathcare plan until January 2013.
The only thing this election is about is slowing or stopping the plunge toward socialism. It will take multiple election cycles to rectify the damage done in the last 4 years.
LOL! Bingo!...I’m afraid.
These stories are not myths. Fortunately, neither time nor insurance were a factor when I experienced them with my kid (an hour's wait before sewing didn't change anything except harden my attitude about illegals).
Mike Pence for House Majority Leader! He is much more conservative, and well spoken. No Ummmms Uhhhs, or spin!
BUT he won’t commit to that either. Nor would he sign Paul Ryans plan for the Congress should they take over the majority. Just more hemmms and hawwws.

I guess they haven’t figured out that we are tired of all the incumbants and their do nothing attitude.
The minute the dems get control of the house again, THEY JUST START FUNDING IT AGAIN.
It must be killed, dead, buried, never to be heard from again.
I dont' know just where you heard about filling out forms for 3 hrs, sorry it done not happen, if you have any type of insurance you give them your info and hand over the card.
you might have to wait 3 hrs to be treated, but not spend 3 hrs filling out forms
Defunding is a temporary measure until we have a GOP president, or a veto-proof majority.
Personally I think there is a good chance of the law being found unconstitutional, which will make the issue moot.
