It’s going to take a presidential veto override to repeal this bill before 2013. The Republican Congress can and should send a repeal bill to Obama to make him veto it. And the rally cry of every GOP campaign in 2012 should be to stop the mandate in January of 2013. But we need to focus on other efforts as well including:
**Constitutional challenges
**Assertion of states rights
**Constitutional amendments (but not a constitutional convention which is way too dangerous).
**Religious objections to participation because abortion is funded.

The best way to influence all the liberals you know is to emphasize the thousands of enforcer IRS agents that will be breathing down their throats and checking once a month if they need to be fined big money. Trust me. That will be the only talking point needed to turn things our direction.
