Exactly!
Sadly, you are correct.
There was an election. We lost.
There was a Supreme Court decision. We were betrayed.
It is the law of the land.
“Why are there any Boehner supporters here?”
There is nothing in my posts that imply I am a Boehner supporter. I am merely stating facts. I am not going to lie about someone I may disagree with.
I believe in debating with facts as much as I can. And, I am not infallible in that area.
Let’s deal with the truth...it is a powerful weapon.
you forget that for anythingj to even get up to the president must go through the senate aand that is Democratic. So it would be useless at best. Need to focus on spending that is more powerful
Appointments. Hold up his radical judical appointments. Pass legislation the country wants but Obama will veto: shoot down his treaties, hold hearings—oh the fun has only begun. Pass balance budgets, defund Obama care. The list is endless. We President, Senate and house in 2016 if we play it right.
RINO doing the rollover like a dog.
Did you see Boehner’s tweet via Perdogg? The story is not what ABC is reporting.
Brave Sir Boehner bravely runs away, once again.
I say: "Defund #ObamaCare OR repeal @johnboehner"
I started crunching the numbers - it's simply not sustainable. It CAN'T work.
And you expect John Boehner to do those things?
0bamaCare is enough to crash the economy all by itself isn’t it?
OK Sparky We just appointed you Speaker. Take us through the steps on how you would repeal and defund Obamacare.
Be clear and concise and show us all the steps you would take.
We will be especially interested in the parts where you get Harry Reid's and Barry Hussein's signatures on the legislation.
You do realize it takes both those things to do anything at all about Obamacare, right?
Actually, Perdogg has posted Boehner’s tweet...and the mainstream media, as usual, only told part of the story.
"They said the same thing about Prohibition in 1928."
I gotta say, that is the BEST "cut to the core of the issue" ANSWER on the entire matter I've heard.
You should write the Speaker's lines for him.. or maybe, better yet, take his place.
No, that’s the Senate, if we take it in 2014. The Senate approves appointments and treaties. And right now, the RAT Senate has blocked abolishing Obamacare a number of times already.
If the House and Senate send it to Obama and he vetoes, that’s political fireworks. And would probably give us the White House in 2016. PEOPLE WILL LOATHE OBAMACARE BY THEN.
The little crybaby could simply defund it. We have the House which has the purse strings.
What? People are going to hate us? Who? The blacks—they don’t vote for us anyway? The single women who are going to find out they will have to buy a policy or pay a penalty? They don;t like us now. The Hispanics? Which ones, the legal ones or the illegal Dreamers?
They all hate us now, according to the pollsters and the GOP.
So what do we have to lose?
And there are other cases before the Supreme Court involving Obamacare which may strike it down.
So, refuse to pass any budget with funds for implementation in it.
But that would take balls. Something Boehner lacks.
Here’s the dirty secret: The Federal elected Republicans didn’t and don’t really mind about ObamaCare. It expands there own personal power. It’s good for their careers. And that’s all the vast majority of them are, careerist. Nation last, screw the voters, they have no where else to go.
Yes, it is, and it really shouldn't take all that long either.
He can defund it. That could’ve started two years ago. Face Boehner LIKES ObamaCare. So shut up.
