On Obama Care need to focus on the problem, which is not ObamaCare per se, but the fact that Democrats have enough power in Congress to block any attempts to repeal ObamaCare and, as we saw with the whole WTF situation with Roberts and the SC, they will stop at nothing including blackmail and intimation to get their way.
The only way to repeal ObamaCare is to get Democrats voted out of office in large enough numbers that Republicans have the leverage to do so.
ObamaCare is a nightmare that sold to the public by total lies. Even now, there is 60% opposition to it's implemetaion and as soon as the reality of doubling of costs combines with cutting the levels of care by a half and the rationing of care hits , people are going to be unbelievably angry at the false bill of goods they have been sold.
Low info voters can't get it in their heads that ObamaCare was designed from the git-go to fail so that the Democrats could force the country to accept their true goal of a government run Single Payer Health Care System. In fact, all of the elements of single payer are already built into the ObamaCare legislation in anticipation of the failure of the private system which is 100% guaranteed.
We know the private ObamaCare system will fail because the trial runs of ObamaCare funded under the original funding package went bankrupt to the tune of Billions of Dollars in less than a year.
The important thing to realize is that ObamaCare was structured by Democrats right from the start to fail, so failure is inevitable.
The failure of our health care system is hard to contemplate, but the idiots who elected and supported the Politicians who forced ObamaCare have really brought this on the country and there is simply no easy way out.
ObamaCare is going to fall no matter what and the only thing of importance now is what comes after the fall.
Once the reality of just how bad ObamaCare really is, there are going to be two options
- Single Payer pushed in a hard sell propaganda campaign by Democrats and
the Media propagandists
- Repeal of ObamaCare.
If the Democrats are able to pin this disaster on the Republicans, which they certainly will if the House tries to block ObamaCare by defunding, the Democrats will win the House of Representatives in 2014 and keep control of the Senate.
More importably, Obama will blame the Republicans so they will be vilified while Obama will cast himself as the protector of the people fighting against the evil Republicans and the Tea Party Cable and will become more popular than ever. Obama is a pro at this and the media will go all in to support him.
The end result will be Single Payer and the eventual destruction of the United States as we know it.
If the Republicans let ObamaCare go into effect and be the disaster the Democrats designed it to be, the Democrats and Obama will own it and the blame associated with it.
The media may even turn on Obama if for no other reason than to protect their own hides.
By the 2014 elections, The Democrats in Congress and Obama will have to call out the National Guard to protect themselves from being Tarred and Feathered by angry voters.
The Republicans will keep the House and probably win the Senate.
The Republicans will have a good chance to repeal Obamacare and force Obama to not veto the repeal by public demand.
Should Obama not bow to public pressure and veto the repeal, there should be enough shell shocked Democrat Senators to support an over ride of the Veto.
That's what we are facing at this point.
Trying to defund Obamacare is quixotic fools errand that will can't work and will backfire and result in the imposition of a government run single payer health care system and a strengthening of President Obama.
The only way to repeal ObamaCare is to get Democrats voted out of office in large enough numbers that Republicans have the leverage to do so.
If the GOP won’t fight obamacare now they won’t fight it later. The careerist beltway types in the GOP will happily take the big donor and K Street lobbyist payola to “fix it”. Sorry FRiend, you are delusional.
You lose 100% of the battles you don't fight.
Ted Cruz has done more tonight to put pressure on the liberal GOP than all of your whining ever will.
Sod off.
