Former Republican congressman Tom Davis, of Virginia, said Republicans should be looking for a connection, but should be careful about how far they take it.

Obamacare, Davis told the Associated Press "is 50-50 with the public on a good day," said Davis. "You put that together with the IRS and it's combustible. For Republicans, I think they need to go a little slower and get some facts in."

"50-50 with the public on a good day"?

This Davis guy has always been a back-stabbing RINO. Seems like he's true to form now, trying to derail the momentum for repeal.

Byron York: IRS scandal raises fears about enforcing Obamacare
washingtonexaminer.com/ ^ | 5/13/2013 | Byron York / FR Posted by RoosterRedux

The IRS is critical to Obamacare. The structure created by the Affordable Care Act requires the government to know about both the health care coverage (or lack of it) and the financial resources of every American. The IRS, which already knows the latter, was the only agency with the reach to do the job.

A look at the text of the health care law reveals that much of it consists of amending the Internal Revenue Code to give the IRS more power.

When Obamacare goes fully into effect in January, every American will have to prove to the IRS that he or she has "qualifying" health coverage, meaning coverage with a list of features approved by Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. That will be done by submitting a document to the IRS, something like a W-2, to confirm coverage.

The IRS will also decide who is, and who is not, eligible for Obamacare's subsidies. The law authorizes the IRS to share confidential taxpayer information with the Department of Health and Human Services for the purpose of determining those subsidies. And since subsidies don't just apply to a relatively small number of the nation's poorest citizens -- under the law, they can go to a family of four with a household income of nearly $90,000 -- they will affect a huge segment of the population.

In addition, the IRS will keep track of even the smallest changes in Americans' financial condition. Did you get a raise recently? You'll need to notify the IRS; it might affect your subsidy status. Have your hours been reduced at work? Notify the IRS. Change jobs? Same. (Excerpt) Read more at washingtonexaminer.com ...

BTW, how many millions of bullets will DHS need to arm O's "civilian ntl security force".....the one he said "we need" that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well- funded as our military.

Davis is Davis ~ he has no motive one way or the other. This guy voted according to poll results in his district.

ObamaKKKare is not the most unpopular gub'mnt operation, although it soon will be.
