OK folks, this is my prediction: Harry will act like he cannot stop the repeal vote in the Senate and the Senate will approve the repeal. Then Obama will complain, but will eventually sign the repeal. No veto.
What makes me say this? Because the fix is in!
And guys like Mitch McConnell are part of it. The media is part of it...
This action will keep Obamacare from going to the Supreme Court and potentially embarrassing Obama and Democrats. It will take the spotlight off the exemptions and the added taxes. It allows Obama to claim that things have changed from 2008 and that he is just doing the will of the people by signing the repeal. His signature on the repeal will make him appear as a centrist. And most of all … it deals a major blow to the Tea Parties.
Without Obamacare, the Tea Parties will lack a central issue to demonize Obama and Democrats in 2012. Then if Obama actually cuts government spending and deficits, the wind will be taken totally out of the Tea Parties’ sails.
The old line guys like McConnell don’t want the Tea Parties. They can’t control them (remember that McConnell wanted to continue earmarks until the Tea Parties pressured him). So of course McConnell is cooperating with Reid and Obama to use methods for repeal that make it look like Reid cannot not stop it...
Republicans and Democrats all get things that they want … and most of all; they all get rid of the Tea Parties. Without this going to the Supreme Court, Americans are the ones who lose. How will we the people find out the limitations of Congress?
What a bunch of con men!

What’re y’all smokin’?
lol...
Yes, obama is the gift that just keeps on giving in that regard. Every day he gives me about three more things to rail against.
Bronk, Sen. McConnell isn’t that smart.
Tea Party people aren’t stupid
It is possible that this article somehow uncovered a conspiracy...possible but not that likely. However there may be some elements of truth. I think Obama’s first two years were of a similar calculation: drive through a left wing agenda and then lose big in the mid terms (you could tell Obama didn’t try very hard on the trail for dems in 2010.), then “move to the center”.
So this article isn’t totally bereft of logic but the thing is this: How does it really benefit Obama to have his big issue go down in flames?
Without Obamacare, the Tea Parties will lack a central issue to demonize Obama and Democrats in 2012. ————————
Wrong.
We never demonized Obama. But his policies we certainly dissent!
Try again to demoralize the Tea party, it won’t work.
What did we rally for? What does TEA stand for? T axed E nough A lready. It’s about the wild spending spree’s indebting generations of our offspring to pay for the wild spending, out of control government...and now it’s about a lot more than that...
Is this guy clueless? It's not JUST OBAMACARE, it's Federal Government interference with lives, over-reaching Constitutional restrictions on Congress power, and so many other issues that "are" the Tea Party Movement.
I don't believe his premise that OBAMACARE will be repealed, and avoid a Supreme Court fight. Two communist appointments to the USSC by The Messiah, and a wimp and sleeping-Beauty to boot, may be the final nail in the coffin for the Constitution when and if the USSC votes on its validity.
Agree.
Maybe the next step would have to be investigations
as to why the democrats wasted two years and passed
and unconstitutional bill.
Wow. If you believe one iota of this pablum, I've got a bridge to sell you. Cheap, too.
Might big IF there, pardner.
Call back when it turns out they way the writer predicted.
Agreed, he owes too many people that are depending on this to transform this country.
Utterly and completely humiliating. Do you really think Obama would be able to handle getting whipped by a bunch of white guys who have been dead for 200 years?!?
LOL, this has to be about the dumbest commentary on this issue I’ve seen yet.
Obama is not - and I emphatically emphasise for emphasis NOT - going to sign off on the repeal of the one piece of his signature agenda he actually managed to force through Congress and down the throats of the American people.
Well, I’ve decided I’ve spent too much time building my small business to let it come to this.
I have only begun to fight.
We are the makers. They are the takers.
The leverage we have is that if they ask too much, we produce less. (15% GDP tax revenue is just a start)
More people need to understand that TPTB are putting up our sweat/labor as collateral on the national debt.
TEA doesn’t stand for “No Obamacare”. It stands for Taxed Enough Already and stands for opposing an overbearing, out of control federal government. The very fact that the Rats even THINK that they can FORCE people to purchase health insurance and the fact that they even THINK that they can give the president the ability to “turn off” the Internet and a hundred other reasons is why the TEA Party is here to stay.
Sociopaths cannot be embarrassed.
