My suggestion for a compromise that would provide extra funding for Obamacare in the current budget is not to preserve it but to take the issue beyond the 2016 election.


You use the word COMPROMISE and that word is the bullet that killed our freedoms and liberties.

NO COMPROMISE ON ANYTHING....PERIOD! The GOPe has ruined our lives, futures and personal fortunes and opportunity by using that tactic.

The definition of Republican Compromise:

You have a bill that you want passed. 75% of the Democrats object to it. To bait them to vote for your bill you trim away enough of it so that only 49% will object to it. However, the bait is the heart of your bill and without it the bill you will get passed actually means nothing more than a blank piece of paper.

However, now you can claim that YOU wrote and passed a bill that the Democrats did not like while patting yourself on your back for COMPROMISING all good that the original bill had for seeking more votes for your upcoming election...or an amazing deposit into your coffers by strangers you did not even know.

The time has come for a NO COMPROMISE Republican House and Senate. The GOPe has already dealt our Constitution a death blow and it cannot take another.

In the imperfect world of politics, compromise and maneuver are often the only way to achieve an objective or to frustrate an adversary. Obama will almost certainly threaten a shutdown if the Obamacare funds are not provided, but he may well give up other programs rather than have Republicans dig in their heels and let a shutdown happen. My approach would delay the Obamacare financial crisis until after the 2016 election when we will have a Republican President and Congress and are in a stronger position to craft a final resolution that kills Obamacare permanently and sets up a successor program to address the issues bedeviling American healthcare on our terms.
