I don’t agree that this proves they want obamacare.
That is your supposition.
Every one of these is a coward.
They are literally terrified of what will be said of them, that they voted to “shut down the government”.
And, many, not all of them, hate Ted Cruz and hate the little people that comprise the Tea Party.
These we can be sure of.
No way to be sure that they want obamacare.
You’re entitled to your opinion. But it isn’t a fact.
They are expecting a watered-down bill to come back from the House. They want to vote in whatever way that it cannot be said of them, they voted to “shut down the government”.
And they want to stick it to Ted Cruz.
(Which makes the GOP base love Ted Cruz more.)
The Republican Party, unlike you realizes that once the freebies of obamacare kick in, there is no way under the sun the sheep will stand for it being repealed. It will be what Social Security was to the senior citizens.
“....They want to vote in whatever way that it cannot be said of them, they voted to shut down the government......
I don’t believe that for a minute.. not one....they are all well informed now of the game board...no excuse that they are cowards or afraid...they should not be in Washington at all if that’s the case...and need to resign.
