Get real. This is not an issue where spending is decided.
YOU GET REAL. Boehner could have ended BamBamcare day one when he was given control of the House. All he did was weep and claim some rule put in place would NOT be gone against. The liberals know who holds the positions of power and they play them like a cheap imitation Stradivarius.
Our Tea Party Congressman wrote that he was not for giving Obama another few billion to blow; and didn’t vote for the bill. Said he was for most of the bill’s provisions; just not for giving Obama another load of cash to squander.
Ahem ... YOU need to get real. Congress passes bills in 2 Houses. Anything done in the House that is DOA in the Senate will NOT change anything.
Any House action to defund Obamacare has to be in the annual budget. It’s still being worked on.
Rather than whining, call your congresscritter to make sure the defunding is in the House version of the budget.
How?
This needs to become a standard Republican phrase. As in, "The 'Gang of 234' has sent the Senate a clear signal...".
The Senate cannot fund anything that is not originated in the HOUSE. And Boehner began his term saying there was some 'rule' built in over BamBamCare he was NOT going to break. We are not the 'right' because it is opposite of 'left', but because we ARE 'right'. Oh and yes sure I could call my Reverend lying congress critter but he show his worth by making lying accusations against the 'tea party' when they took our cause to WDC. I got no representation from my leftist congress critter.
And now this nation must contend with a 'gang' willing to sell US out once again. We have been shown that Congress can do whatever it sets it mind to do and all I expect is now that the peoples house has been 'freed' to pull the plug on BamBamCare, regardless of what stupid rule the old RED Nanny the Pewlouise put in place.
