That is it. I will never think the GOP are “good guys” ever again.

I think the feeling may be that Romney is going to win and that it makes sense to wait until after the election to fight the religious liberty battle, since Obama would delight in playing himself and “women” as victims if they fought the battle now.

I am not naive about how spineless my party — the GOP — can be. But I think Romney's going to win and I believe the Republicans will have an easy time reversing the anti-religious aspects of Obamacare.

The House has voted several times to repeal ObamaKKKare ~ and there's an election in three months.

Did you imagine the Senate was going to suddenly go along with the House?

At this point, I don’t see the point of voting. I caught a few minutes of Karl Rove on Fox today bragging about how much money he’s making. Guess who he’s making it off of?

It will be a different congress a few months from now.

Hopefully, one that doesn’t include Boehner.

What a bunch of pansies — they hear the media taking the leftist line and they fold like a cheap suit. Where are the spines? Don’t they know this is a winning issue? Good grief. Talk about suicidal tendencies.

I frankly do not know why we should be concerned with such inanities while the nation is at stake.

If there is no United States of America, there will be no contraception within the former borders for an extended period of time, and I don't know why anybody should care about crap like that anyway.

Given the current environment, people should be concerned about beans, bullets and bandaids.

Kind of reminds you of Romney, doesn't it.

With Romney at the helm, it's only going to get worse.

Obamacare To Provide Free Purses To Promiscuous Females

The Obama administration has announced that females will now be eligible to recieve a free "Safe Sax Condom Purse" (Sandra Fluke model) under the President's Free Condom initiative which is part of the Obamacare program.

The purse (pictured here) contains 32 colorful "emergency" condoms sealed in easy open plastic pouches that are actually an integral part of the purse.

Now there will be no need for promiscuous females to forego that drunken sexual interlude or one-night-stand just because they forgot to grab some free condoms at the dorm or the local welfare office.

Three things...

1. This is Politico, who will twist and turn any story to make Republicans look bad. Especially to Republican voters.

2. Do you really think the GOP House can keep the rule from taking effect? Doing so would require the approval of the Senate (not gonna happen) and the approval of the White House (not gonna happen, either).

3. The GOP House, the GOP Senate minority leader and the GOP Presidential candidate have all promised -- straightforwardly -- to kill Obamacare if they win the Presidency and Congressional majorities in the November election. Kill Obamacare and the contraception issue is closed.

Thus, the House didn't cave, as you suggest. Instead, they chose to save their bullets for a battle they could win. The same thing you would do if you were in their position...

There is no point in taking a vote now. The last time they voted, the left and the MSM had a field day saying how there are so many out of work and the GOP is wasting time on their 33rd vote to repeal Obamacare. What is the point of such a vote anyway when Harry Reid will not let it come up in the senate and even if he did, the senate would never approve it. Voting now only distracts from the negatives of Obama and gives the left something to beat the GOP over the head with.

I don’t know when House Speaker John Boehner is running again. But I would even vote for a democrat to keep him from winning again. And I never voted for a democrat in my life.

I think they’re letting the lawsuits take the lead, which is fine by me.

Maybe maybe not...remember this is from Politico (hardly our friend) AND written by two women with an sagenda. Their goal is to get conservatives to tire and give up

The GOP is standing by and forcing Good Christians to fund the murder of millions of children.

They are watching the trains going to the Death Camps

Oh, horse****. The ONLY way to get this damnable law and the enforcements thereof to be changed is to CHANGE the legislative and executive branches.

People ARE working to change the mandate, but believe it or not the House of Representatives doesn’t have dictatorial powers.

We have to do this the right way.

The best way is to defeat the despicable occupant of the White House in November, and put Republicans in charge of the legislative branch again.

This is the last election that the gop will have its base... they will need a new one after November.
