Tell it to your friends the Democrats and RINO

It could have been resolved by postponing the Obamacare penalties, they now want to postpone it for.

Kerry lecturing on what would damage U. S. Leadership (I presume role, globally)...
It’s like this rat can’t get low enough, and is now gnawing a new hole in the bottom of the barrel.

Obama has to decide if he is going to keep the U.S. in a leadership role on the world stage, or keep his domestic Marxist entitlement plantation growing - he won’t get funds for both.

And Obamacare...it's already a failure!!.
