The Senate is controlled by the Dems, in case you didn’t notice.

Also NO Republican voted for Obamacare.

It amazes me that so many here, who should know better, blame the Republicans more than Obama — despite the FACTS I cited above.

I have no illusions that, should the Republicans control both houses of congress and the presidency, there will be a repeal. They might try to “fix” it, but Obamacare will stay in some form or another. Republicans have no interest in putting things back the way they were. The power over life and death doesn't just appeal to Democrats

In case you didn't notice, the three branches of government and the states (pre-17th), have been replaced with the Uniparty.

But hey, if you want to keep doing what you've been doing, I refer you to Einstein's definition of insanity.

“The Senate is controlled by the Dems, in case you didn’t notice.”

Exactly. People are too quick to blame republicans for not standing up to obama and stop him. But their hands are tied because the senate is controlled by the democrats. Whatever legislative moves they make, it will be a huge waste of time, money, and political capitol because it will just die in the senate, on reids desk. A futile gesture.

While not totally rational, it is not unusual that, when things go wrong, blame is assigned to the person closest to your viewpoint. Conservatives expect liberals to act as they do and consequently don't feel betrayed by their actions. They expect conservatives to stop them and feel betrayed when they don't. Generally, conservatives want to be right while liberals want to win.

I lost track of how many times the House has voted to repeal Obamacare.

Don’t forget the Republican dirt bag Olympia Snowe.

2. One Senate Republican even helped Democrats to pass ObamaCare. When Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-ME) voted in favor of ObamaCare in committee in 2009, CBS lauded her as a force to be reckoned with: “When Olympia Snowe cast the lone Republican vote for the Senate Finance bill, she reaffirmed her place as a power player on Capitol Hill.”
