We already lost the messaging. We aren’t shutting down govt...we are fully funding govt and will pass a bill to fully fund it. Except for obamacare where the cost projections have changed and its not being rolled out as promised and as prescribed by law....due to this we can’t waste more money implementing a fundamentally flawed bill. We need to stop implementation now and then we can fix it in due course.

Ultimately if the house decides it will not fund deathcare under any circumstances, then they could shut down the federal government indefinitely. Then it’s just a question of who blinks first.

I don’t think the gop wing of the uniparty has the courage or willingness to engage in this sort of brinksmanship. Cowardice is a hard habit to break. I guess we’ll see. And for the record, I will gladly eat my words should they be shown to possess a spine that has to date proven to be undetectable.

In the mean time I think we should make the phone calls to encourage the approach. It won’t hurt and it just takes a few minutes to dial them up. We should at least give them the opportunity to do the right thing. If they fail, then at least we’ve done our job.

Yes.

We need to stop believing Reid’s warning that we’re jumping into a briar patch if we fight this.

CONTACT! CONTACT! CONTACT! your Senators and Representatives.

Rinse!

Spit!

We are within two weeks of the LIVs suddenly discovering that the government is ordering them to buy insurance. Anything that makes it clear to them exactly who’s doing this is worthwhile. The GOP now needs to organize an answer to the complaints, something along the line of, “hey, you voted for Democrats, and everybody knows Democrats are all about telling you how to live your life”. Unique “teaching moment” coming here. If it goes to veto so that it becomes clear it’s Obama ordering them to buy insurance, all the better. The one thing you can count on him doing is trying to distance himself from every oCare problem, just as he did with HIS little red line problem.

The messaging isn’t lost - still lots of time - and such time is the time that much more attention is paid by voters.

Message should also include the nice things that could be done with some or all of the $25 Billion that will be saved in the next year by not implementing.

Yes CW, if they really thought it to be so bad for repubs, they wouldn't try to prevent it.

They're skeered.

The only thing people need to know is that the President and Congress have exempted themselves from this god-awful program. We should be sending letters and emails non-stop to our Senators and Congressmen threatening to throw the whole bunch out unless they either join in on the fun or stop this atrocity.

It is Soooo nice to see you here. I was very afraid you’d left me here to fight on all by myself.

I am all for this but with the dead fish Boner running it,FORGET IT. He sounds as enthusiastic as Bill Clinton stranded on a desert island alone for the rest of his life.
The onslaught of the Democrats and their allies in the media has only begun,I would not care and would fight all the way against it if there were a leader that would or could make the case,nobody wants this disaster,but who is outlining all the OUTRAGES ABOUT THIS? Independent payment advisory board,skyrocketing premiums,job loss,working hours reduced,exemptions for the elite among us,those who fought to pass this monstrosity.
All we hear is you can’t do this,not only from democrats but republicans! With Boner running the show we are toast

The RNC needs to post a full page ad in all the major papers stating the above with FACTUAL and undeniable statements that the CRA/bill has funds for all govt functions except the not ready for prime time Obamacare. Save the killing of Obamacare for another time.

You are correct it won't be our side who will shut the government. It will be that arrogant lazy, lying pos occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave and he will blame the Republicans.

This all could have been avoided if people would have listened.

In case you don't know, I am very bitter.
