and, it sounds like they’ve given up on defunding Obamacare.
Who’s suprised? We know they’ll cave, it’s just a matter of when.
“and, it sounds like theyve given up on defunding Obamacare.”
That has been off the table since they starting pushing for the 1 year delay, I think.
The payouts (campaign/retirement) to these sleaze balls from the insurance companies is just too much to resist.
Make Obamacare the issue.
Make Democrats OWN Obamacare.
Take Obama down a few notches.
Make it hard for Libs to even think about moving any of THEIR new programs forward at this time.
Now, I do wish more Republicans understood that the US will NOT default even if no deal on anything is reached this year, but so what?
Obama has spooked everyone, so let Obama be seen as the bad guy.
Where the hell did you get that? That's not in this article. Are you just determined to find bad news? This is probably, and I stress probably, a good strategy. They are winning the Obama Care delay/CR fight. KEEP UP THAT FIGHT. This is the one time where kicking the debt limit can down the road is a good idea. Keep charging up the hill we are capturing day by day.
I have to say that trying to defund obamacare but not being successful put’s the monster squarely on the democrats. The republicans can point out they all voted against it and tried to defund it. They even tried to delay it. Then when it all crashes, and it will, the republicans won’t be blamed.
