OMG! The House of Representatives is set to debate and vote to Repeal Obamacare. Holy crap!
Wait! You already did in February of 2011. But, you are going to do it again.
What for? You are only half of a third, remember? I mean, that’s what I was told in last year’s budget battle. Er, oh, you mean now that it’s an election year, it’s way different, huh.
Well let’s see. What happened in last year’s budget battle. Let me recollect….ah yes, I do remember.
You talked tough, ignored the tea party who made you the majority, told us that you had a plan, and our arguments would have messed up the plan, and in the end did damn near diddly-squat, and told us hobbits to shut up, sit down, and focus on the Senate instead of getting all up in your grill.
Pretty much.
So, I suppose you know then, that about 70% of Republicans want the bill repealed, and so you are going to go ahead and vote, even though it won’t go through the Senate and would be vetoed by this pathetic excuse for a President.
I’m only trying to understand your logic, because you told me to shut up the last time I wanted you to act on what you were sent to Congress to do.
Here’s a secret I don’t mind divulging now….The leadership of the Republicans in Congress, ie. Boehner and the boys, are the reason Congress has such low marks. Stop listening to the bubble-heads around you in DC that hand you the left’s talking points that it’s because ‘they are stalling progress’ or ‘the Republicans are being partisan.’ Here’s an idea, do what you said you would do when the tea party was knocking on doors for you and holding rallies for you back in 2010.
Yes, you should repeal, but, using your own logic that many of your people told me during the budget battle, what for? What good would that do?

Wait, you want elected officials to do what they were elected to do? That's crazy!
Oh, Jen! You are soooooooooo REAL! I love it!
You contiinue to speak what I am unable to put into words. Thank God for you! 
"Father forgive them for they know not what they do". Famous words stated over 2000 years ago that may be very applicable today. But do they know what they do?
I suspect that they lack an understanding of the eventual consequences. As Hayek stated "The main question is where this movement will lead us. Is it not possible that if the people whose convictions now give it an irresistible momentum began to see what only a few yet apprehend, they would recoil in horror and abandon the quest which for half a century has engaged so many people of good will?"
The bottom line is that you do not compromise on principles. How many try and escape their foolish decisions by pointing out that even Reagan compromised on issues as important as taxes. He really didn't. He broadened the applicable base and removed loopholes and that was consistent with his philosophy that everyone should pay something; he would never be satisfied with 50% of income earners paying no tax at all; imagine his reaction to the creation of a vast new network of entitlements that not only lack morality but also funding as well.
The people get this and so do Tea Party representatives but before the current can flow towards liberty we need to remove the log jam of congressional republicans that still want to practice politics as usual. That is the type of politics that got us into this mess in the first place.
