WASHINGTON (AP) -- Minority leader Nancy Pelosi says House Democrats are happy to debate dismantling Obamacare, but repeal is unrealistic.

One word: “waiver”.
Make that two words: “waiver” and “fascism”
That is the crux of the matter.
If the media had been picking away at this administration like they did others...this would not even be an issue.
I like your optimism.
And since I have been totally down in the dumps over the “Supreme Court Show” this week..I will enjoy it for this evening.
Sorry for your despondency. I understand. The strong of will continue on though. Better to die with your boots on, than submit to slavery. But its your choice.
Obamacare will die a slow agonizing death due to the lack of state Medicaid partners and the repeal of the non-participation tax.
This from the witch with the magic crystal ball who said about The Occupy Wall Street cruminals..."“God bless them for their spontaneity,” Pelosi told reporters. “It’s young, it’s spontaneous, it’s focused and it’s going to be effective.”
We know how accurate she was about that!
Maybe she hasn't had time to figure out what "unrealistic" means.
And?
I’ve heard all kinds of tough talk coming from Republicans who buckle the minute the heat is on.
I am 40 years old. I never once, EVER thought I’d see any of the stuff our government is doing today.
The US Congress now openly talks about targeting individuals: from Rush Limbaugh to that guy who helped set up Facebook.
I never once, ever thought I would see terrorists who kill Americans (and want to kill more of us) and their sympathizers building monuments to themselves on US soil (like the Ground Zero Mosque.)
I never once, ever thought that I would see people who admit that they are in the country illegally marching through our streets demanding more from our government - and then watching our government fight tooth and nail to give them their demands.
I never once, ever thought that everything I own and everything I work for could be taken from me by my government just because they want it - that’s what the Supreme Court just did.
I never once, ever thought that the people who did the least in our society would end up getting the most. Then to have them turn around and scream that it’s not enough? And our government is fighting tooth and nail to give these people their demands? When I was growing up I was told the story of the little red hen who didn’t have to share her corn because no one helped her grow it. I was told ‘he who pays the piper gets to pick the tune.’
I never once, ever thought that I would be living in fear of what my government is doing. Ever morning I wake up and it’s a little more aggravating and invasive.
I have watched McConnell and Boehner talk tough and then give up when the fight got hard. Maybe Romney will fight - but I doubt it.
The teaparty is puttng some heat on them.
Saw that...loved that!
But all should NEVER forget what happened next. It was shameful!
March 21, 2010: “Should Republican Scott Brown win Tuesday’s Senate race in Massachusetts and break the Democrats’ supermajority in the Senate, Congressional Dems could pass a final health care reform bill before Brown is seated, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) told reporters at his weekly press briefing Tuesday. And if that means the House has to rubber-stamp the weaker reform bill that came out of the Senate, he said, “the Senate bill clearly is better than nothing.” Under procedural statutes, Massachusetts officials could buy some time for Congress to pass health care by delaying the certification of a Brown victory. If everything drags out as long as possible, Democrats would have about two weeks to get the final bill to President Obama’s desk.
