Holy Crap! I cannot believe it….but it seems the more rational Repubs are finally facing reality……
- GOP Sen. John McCain (AZ): “I can tell you that in the U.S. Senate, we will not repeal or defund Obamacare. We will not. And to think we can is not rational.”
- GOP Strategist Karl Rove: The GOP defunding strategy is “self-defeating…It is an ill-conceived tactic, and Republicans should reject it.”
- Fox News Host Bill O’Reilly: Defunding Obamacare is “fanaticism on the right,” O’Reilly says. “There’s no way Obamacare is going to be defunded. It’s not gonna happen.”
- GOP Sen. Tom Coburn (OK): “Tactics and strategies ought to be based on what the real world is, and we do not have the political power to do this.”
- GOP Sen. Rand Paul (KY): “I’m acknowledging we can’t probably defeat or get rid of Obamacare.”
- GOP Sen. Kelly Ayotte (NH): “I don’t believe they should shut down the government to [defund Obamacare], and I don’t think that is a strategy that is good for America.”
- GOP Sen. Johnny Isakson (GA): “It’s total atrophy. We’re earning our 11 percent popularity. It’s easier to talk about Obamacare than the major sources of our problems.”
- Wall Street Journal Editorial Board: “Kamikaze missions rarely turn out well, least of all for the pilots… The kamikazes could end up ensuring the return of all-Democratic rule.”
Now we will wait and see just much they plan to act on their new found reality…..
So, after 5 years of utter insanity they now pretend to be sane again? Brilliant!
John all of it is an act….a clown act…..
You’re not saying that you actually believed the Republicans, especially the “Republican Establishment”, seriously took action to repeal Obama-care???
Geez! These guys want it as much if not more than Obama and the Democrats! How does one spell M O N E Y ?
C&H, I can agree with you there…..their only worry is that it will become an institution like SS or Medicare……that is their only worry…
