Consideration of the House bill comes in the same week that The Wall Street Journal reported that the Obama administration has quietly decided to allow people not to buy insurance if newly available plans are too expensive. This exemption from the mandate would last for two years, until 2016.
It's gonna be hard for Democrats to oppose this since The One just delayed the mandate for two years.

Incrementalism.
Hard to say which direction it's incremental in.

Why are they doing this? Is the GOPe trying to save Obama’s A$$? Either repeal the thing or enforce it. NO DELAYS.

I’m hoping this is just political calculation to get the ‘Rats to have to vote against a delay in the face of Obama decreeing delays. It would be a bad miscalculation if the ‘Rats went for it and the burr that is driving the electorate to hate ObamaCare was removed before that hate can blossom into a fully energized repeal effort.

We will win on tossing the mess out and putting in a new plan for uninsured. There are hundreds of ways to fix this problem. Besides zerocare is only going to get worse and I don't want republicans to “fix” a uncurable cancer. We will end up on a vicious cycle like school ed, welfare....we will be blamed for not throwing enough money at it to make it better. Democrats need to own this 100%.

Stupid effing Republicans. You should look to be rolling this out in full, not delaying it.
Sometimes these people are just too stupid for words.....and this is their profession for God’s sake!

The fact that they’re not seeking THE COMPLETE REPEAL OF IDIOTCARE is the reason that the GOP is going to lose a bunch of seats to conservatives this fall.
I cannot wait.

What about those of us who already had our original policies cancelled, and were forced to go to more expensive Obamacare-compliant policies?
What are we supposed to do???

Seems like timing is a bit off. It would make far greater sense to propose it before the 2014 elections.
Republican House leadership is an embarrassment. Bohner needs to go. He’s hurting the party and hurting the nation. He’s putting himself before the nation.

The Republicans need the delay so that the pressure to repeal will abate. Republicans don’t want to actually repeal the thing any more than Democrats do. They will vote repeal in the House over and over again because they know it won’t go beyond that. Republicans have looked at the inherent corruption characteristics of this law and like what they see.
