It's not working on me. I hope it's not working on anybody else. I also hope these oafs are finally turned out of office over this stuff.
It's not like they have any ideas of their own--the ACA was their only idea when the Heritage Foundation spat it out over 20 years ago. Having a black Democrat in office has gotten them so completely crazed they're voting against all their pet projects and have absolutely nothing to take their places.

(24,412 posts)Obama is NOT negotiating over the debt ceiling and most certainly would NEVER negotiate a delay (beyond what he initiated) or defunding of his signature accomplishment of his Presidency and Democrats in the Senate aren't going to go along with it anyway. Republicans can go pound sand. They got their freak on by invading Iraq when Bush was (P)resident and spent LOTS of money and it cost thousands of lives. Helping lots of people obtain health insurance coverage will, by contrast, save lives and wind up costing way less money money than Iraq did. I'd rather government be helping people get health insurance coverage and get the medical care they and their families need rather than paying for their wars of choice and/or tax cuts for the wealthy. It's really weird and twisted how they are so morally offended by the notion of more people being able to get health care but if this is the hill they want to fight and die on, well...............
