Townhall
by Terry Jeffrey
September 25, 2013

In the next few days, politicians in Washington, D.C., will do and say many things to make it look and sound as if they are against Obamacare when in fact they are ultimately planning to use the power that has been vested in them by the people of their districts and states to ensure that Obamacare is funded and implemented.

But make no mistake: If Obamacare is funded and implemented it will be because Republican members of Congress decided to do it.

This is not a debatable supposition. It is an irrefutable fact. The fate of Obamacare is controlled completely by Republicans -- period.

"Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual." Thomas Jefferson

"If people can�t trust not only the executive branch but also don�t trust Congress, and don�t trust federal judges, to make sure that we�re abiding by the Constitution with due process and rule of law, then we�re going to have some problems here." - Barack Obama, June 7, 2013

Only by attempting to slip the phrase "in the next few days" past the reader can Mr. Jeffry make his otherwise utterly dishonest claim.

It will not matter if Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., refuses to move a government funding bill through the Senate that includes the House language defunding Obamacare. It will not matter if Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. and the majority of Senate Republicans -- except Ted Cruz, R-Texas, Mike Lee, R-Utah, and a few other stalwarts -- decide to let Reid pass legislation to fund Obamacare by a simple majority vote. It will not matter if Obama vows to veto any legislation that includes the House language that prohibits funding for Obamacare.

Unless the Republican-controlled House passes legislation that permits funding of Obamacare, Obamacare is dead.

Then I can understand why Boehner has been working on delaying the mandate for a year.

You're falling for Jeffry's scam, Palinista.

Obamacare will not be dead under Jeffry's dishonest presumptions, only the funding (and, arguably, not even all of that) will be frozen.

Obamacare will still be a duly constituted law on the books.

Then will come the governemnt shutdown which Mr. Jeffry doesn't want to recognize.

Then what, Terry, then what?

I didn't fall for anything.

I told you already, Cedric. I think the system is broken. I don't know that it can be repaired in my lifetime.

I do NOT have representation in Congress.

I liked watching the speeches, questions and answers on the Senate floor, but I know none of this will be fixed in a week.

The problem is that our government wants to continue to spend us into ruin without effectively fixing ANYTHING. They won't even be HONEST about our finances because it would harm their re-election chances. None of them are honest.

Now, if Cruz, Lee and Paul want to work within the system and fight back with what they can, trying to reclaim freedom for people while the sun is setting, I applaud them. But I do so for my kids, not for me. It's too late for me.

I'd rather have Calvin Coolidge back.

This is why the GOPe wants to shut Cruz, Lee and Paul up on this. They are letting everyone know what is really going on here. The GOP leadership is losing their hidding spot.

What they're gonna end up letting everyone know is that grandstanding is not a strategy.
