Looks like the Obamacare debacle is giving Republicans a little more courage.
The Senate had the BRASS EGGS to come up with a 1300 page bill -- AGAIN -- that nobody had read. These people think that will work, AGAIN?
It's too early to tell, but it looks like the Repubs have actually started to look out for themselves and their prospects in 2014 again.

Even Rubio walked away from the gang. A little too late to help him though.

I’m still not opposed to having Boner Primaried out.

Thank you to the Marxist in Chief for the disaster that is Obamacare. You’ve fortified the GOP on all matters unrelated. Enough 2700 page, all-encompassing legislative “reforms” that will never be enforced as per the letter of the law, and, worse, will certainly run afoul of the constitution.

He still must be primaried. The only reason he’s doing this is because we are on him like white on rice. We can’t be fooled by his sudden conservativism.

Easy kill — the momentum wasn’t there.

Look out. Boner may be growing a spine. Will the wonders never cease.

This is a remarkable story!

House Speaker John Boehner is now on record saying he has no desire to discuss the matter with the Senate. Which means that as far as this Congress is concerned, an amnesty deal is all but dead this year. Can we take his word?
To: Lazamataz
The Senate bill was never sent to the House. If it had been, it would have been sent back (blue-slipped)to the Senate for revision because it contained appropriation and revenue language that must originate in the House.

Looks like the Obamacare debacle is giving Republicans a little more courage. Yep, Obamacare and the fact that the Obama's approval ratings have dropped into the high 30's in most polls. There is absolutely no political risk in opposing anything Obama supports with public approval that low.

Look out. Boner may be growing a spine.You mean, with real vertebrae, not just calcified spurs?
To: Lazamataz
Nah. This is all about winning that primary for his district. After that’s accomplished he’ll sell us out pronto.
To: Lazamataz
Woof!
