Power of purse does not apply to laws already passed.
For example the House can not stop Obamacare expenditures without passing a new law to stop them. Such law will not pass senate and will be vetoed by the community organizer.
Don’t they teach how our government works in schools anymore?

Very good point you make!!

I'm am becoming more convinced that the purpose of the “delays” is to cement into the minds of the American public that the president is allowed to alter laws however it suits him.

Boner has plenty of power to stick a fork into the works.

The Cruz/Lee/Paul’s 21 hour Obamacare Filibuster last fall was a thorn in the GOP-e ass. Screw you Boehner!

SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT, YOU FING LOSER???Bump that. Once again, the feckless Boehner plays Hans Blix to 0bama's Kim Jong Il ....
Or else what?!

The dates are the dates, and the law is the law, he said.
As a practical "rubber meets the road" matter, the law is what is enforced, not what is written. And enforcement has been and always will be selective.
Sort of like Andrew Jackson's remark, "John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it!" When it comes to enforcement, Congress, like the courts, is impotent.

IMPEACH, or shut the hell up, BoneHead.........
Common Sense:" The lack of a decisive response is the joke, thanks to you..."
Actually , both Osamma and bonehead should be IMPEACHED !
The first one for OVERREACH of office and failure to support his oath to the Constitution .
The other for UNDERREACH and failure to preserve the power of his office , and dereliction of office .
Obamacare was never designed to succeed ; it was always designed to fail, 3 years a failure and still being modified ,furthermore ,
It is an ongoing classic criminal act of "BAIT AND SWITCH " with UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES !!
Congress didn't read the bill because they didn't have the time to read it !

I’m still trying to understand how I’m forced to pay for something that I DO NOT want.
“don’t want 0bamacare? no problem. just pay us for the privilege to not have it or go to jail.”
seriously... wtf?! what’s next? will they charge me for the privilege to not being shot? not having my car impounded? not having my free speech violated?
what a freakin joke
