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...

"Without Obamacare, the Tea Parties will lack a central issue to demonize Obama and Democrats in 2012"

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I don't believe his premise that OBAMACARE will be repealed, and avoid a Supreme Court fight.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.

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.

All the more reason to give Mitch and Lamar the Tea Perty treatment. And there’s nearly 2 years to find a suitable replacement for them.

The author is delusional-- there I said it.

If Obama really gives us what we want-- are we supposed to say "No?"

I would call it a victory.

I expect to see Obama’s long form birth certificate before I see him signing a repeal of his signature issue.

And most of all … it deals a major blow to the Tea Parties.

What's the blow? Did not the Tea Parties want it repealed? Getting our wish and making the dems and Bowrama capitulate to the Tea Parties! IMHO!

Of course, the article could be smoke and mirrors....

Obama is going to have to work really hard so that the Tea Party has no issues in two years:

1. Fire all appointees that ever worked for Goldman-Sachs, JP Morgan, or any other outfit that unfairly benefitted from TARP and government bailouts.

2. Eliminate all farm subsidies, especially the sugar tariffs and the biofuel subsidies.

3. Eliminate all government support for green energy except the typical amount of money that goes to scientific research projects.

4. Opening up of offshore drilling areas, and wilderness areas to drilling as well.

5. Elimination of the Dept. of Education and similar departments who's activities should be performed solely at the state or local level.

6. Elimination of Medicare Part D.

7. Elimination of 'No Child Left Behind'.

8. Privatization or Elimination of Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac

9. Opening up the records at the Fed

10. Eliminating the new IRS 1099 reporting rules

11. Launching new nuclear power plant building initiative

etc.

Have you looked at the deficit lately? The actions of the FCC? The actions of the EPA? NEA? How about the multiple czars. Obama's missing history. Illegal immigrants. The anti-business attitude of the left.

I think that there will be NO lack of issues with which to illustate the actions of the left these last two years.

Reminds me of the tired argument that we should stop demanding Zippo’s birth certificate `because it takes away from pursuing more important matters ...’. Your variant seems to be that there is only one salient issue.
Most conservatives can chew gum, walk and rip Zero’s azz, and all at the same time. There are plenty of other issues besides national healthcare. And we’re all out of chewing gum. Lead, follow or get out of the way.
