From district courts to Capitol Hill, Republicans and conservative groups are aggressively reviving their efforts to bring down Obamacare. During a press conference with reporters right before the president’s speech Tuesday, House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) called the Affordable Care Act “fundamentally flawed” and said it “continues to wreak havoc” on the economy and Americans’ health insurance coverage. Still, he declined to commit to allowing a vote on a GOP-designed 'patient-driven’ health care plan next year.

"That's what a patient-centered system looks like." At the same time, Republicans in the House Judiciary Committee were taking their own jabs at Obamacare by challenging the constitutionality of the president’s recent rule changes at a hearing Tuesday.

Grow a pair Boehner and back up your words or get the hell out of Dodge!!!
Your words mean nothing, Boner.
You bet! BURY OBAMACARE!
The best offense we have in the fight against ObamaCare is Obama himself.
He is making it too darn easy to defeat this garbage. That being true; we must remain suspicious as to why. What is going on? As we all know, Bammie always has some evil ulterior motive behind every scam and scheme.
Good. I hope they break out the ICBMs and nuke the monstrosity.
Fire his @$$!
Yet the House Pubbies are still funding it.

Talk is cheap, Boehner, but Obamacare isn’t. Its full implementation is just being delayed until after the 2014 election cycle.
Yep.
Rino is a good four letter word to describe this person.
Another good four letter word to describe John Boner is “liar”.
Yeah, no vote on a free market health care law, but he’s ready to vote on amnesty next year. What a great conservative...
Bury Obamacare AND BLUE SLIP IMMIGRATION!
I’ll bring it to the floor for a vote IF you pass amnesty so we can be popular with the media and illegal hispanics.
why won’t Boehner commit to voting on a republican plan???
He is totally useless...
The Republicans don’t really need to make war on obamacare. They can just sit back for a while while the PEOPLE make war on obamcare when hundreds, thousands and maybe even tens of thousands of folks start being killed by obamacare towards the end of January when they no longer have medical insurance or medical care from their doctors because obamacare cancelled their insurance and they were unable to obtain comparable insurance or medical care.
I’m talking about chronically ill people who are being kept alive by highly specialized treatments by highly specialized doctors in highly specialized treatment centers. You don’t treat cancer, hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, psoriatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, childhood genetic diseases, and thousands of other such diseases in the ER.
Those are the people who will truly suffer and die because their existing insurance has been cancelled and they are unable to sign up for new insurance, or unable to afford new insurance, or are offered only policies that no longer include their existing specialized care givers.
Obama and the Democrats are going to have blood on their hands if they persist in trying to implement their totally unworkable legislation when it starts to kill innocent children. We need to show the nation that blood so we can end this horror.
