They didn’t really mean it.
Ever notice how you never hear Democrats brag about Obamacare?
Obama didn’t rest his reelection on Obamacare during his campaign last year, why is that?
Are the Democrats going to crash and burn because of this massive overreach of government-run healthcare?
Not if the Republicans have anything to say about it.
I just find it unreal that after all the rallies and activism and new Republican party members, that we are actually saying to the people of America, shut up about it already, and get used to it.
And it’s been probably a week or so that I have quietly become quite angry.
First of all, I’m an activist. A true believer. I believe in the greatness of America as founded, and we are so far from it, the most you can do is help people get elected who will begin to turn back the progressive expansion of government. The left has their activists working full time, trying to completely destroy all that is decent and good. And I got to thinking, would Democrat politicians ever try to completely piss off one of their activists? I don’t think so. A Democrat politician would never tell one of his activists to sit down and shut up, because the Republicans passed a law, and that’s it, would he? No, he wouldn’t.
No, a Democrat feeds off of the energy of his activists. What do our guys do? They suck all the life and energy out of the party by their actions.
I left the Republican party in November because I heard John Boehner say, “Obamacare is the law of the land,�? which is tantamount to saying that the Republicans will not fight its implementation. That pissed me off so much, I took to facebook and twitter and told the world I was breaking from the Republican party. Boehner had gone too far. But then I came back, just to get backhanded again, this time from Republican politicians in my state.
You would think that a wildly unpopular Orwellian law that no Republican voted for, would be shut out of the State you live in if in fact, your state was run by Republicans. Nope. The damn Governor is one of the original cheerleaders for the exchange, and nearly every office you contact, some aide tells you, “Obamacare is the law of the land.�?
So, the match is lit, and this time, no, I’m not leaving the party, but I know one hell of a lot of people who will. And you know, they will be out there, making a very convincing argument. They will say that though they tried to right the Republican party and bring it back to its limited government principles, they realized instead, that the modern Republican party wants to be just like the Democrat party, and be the ones to control your life.
It’s becoming clear that the elections we were involved in, in 2010 and 2012, were just for show, not because the Republican leadership is caving, but because they didn’t really mean it. They didn’t really mean it when they said Obamacare was dreadful, and was just another way to control your life. They didn’t really mean it when they told you they would repeal it. They just didn’t really mean it, because if they did, they would be raising holy hell about this hateful law. If they were truly concerned about America to ever be America again, every other phrase out of their mouths would be, Obamacare is deadly, or, Obamacare is rationing, or Obamacare will crush the Democrat party.
Why am I not leaving? I’m not leaving because of guys like Ted Cruz, and I believe that the strength of one righteous principled person can change people’s minds.
Boehner and the boys never meant it, Rick Snyder was completely for it, and it’s up to the Republican politicians in the States to educate the populace on the truly despicable attack on the sovereign people of this nation, but they actually want us to get used to it.

UTPW Presented byMark Levin Gives Unvarnished Truth
MARK LEVIN: We conservatives, we do not accept bipartisanship in the pursuit of tyranny. Period. We will not negotiate the terms of our economic and political servitude. Period. We will not abandon our child to a dark and bleak future. We will not accept a fate that is alien to the legacy we inherited from every single future generation in this country. We will not accept social engineering by politicians and bureaucrats who treat us like lab rats, rather than self-sufficient human beings. There are those in this country who choose tyranny over liberty. They do not speak for us, 57 million of us who voted against this yesterday, and they do not get to dictate to us under our Constitution.
We are the alternative. We will resist. We're not going to surrender to this. We will not be passive, we will not be compliant in our demise. We're not good losers, you better believe we're sore losers! A good loser is a loser forever. Now I hear we're called 'purists.' Conservatives are called purists. The very people who keep nominating moderates, now call us purists the way the left calls us purists. Yeah, things like liberty, and property rights, individual sovereignty, and the Constitution, and capitalism. We're purists now. And we have to hear this crap from conservatives, or pseudo-conservatives, Republicans.

I Don’t Deny Global Warming Exists
I don't deny that global warming exists. It does not exist. There is not a pink elephant in my kitchen. I'm not denying it. It is not there. If I denied that there was a pink elephant in my kitchen, it would have to be there, but I would be lying to myself and everyone and walk around it to cook. But it is not there, therefore, I am not denying that it is.
MICHIGAN HEADLINES
Snyder said Wednesday that he unconditionally supports expanding the state's Medicaid rolls by roughly 470,000 people. There are 1.9 million people receiving benefits now.
"We're all here to support expanding Medicaid," Snyder said at a news conference called by a large coalition of groups that support the expansion. "We're moving forward with care for people who need it."
The ever-illogical argument that insuring more people will actually cost less. "But health care providers and advocates for the uninsured argue that the state will actually save money -- as much as $1 billion in the first decade -- if fewer residents have to rely on expensive emergency room facilities to address non-life-threatening illnesses and injuries."
Susan Dumass is really quite pedestrian. "The only thing standing in between 450,000 low-income Michiganders and health insurance is Tea Party Republicans' deep-seated hatred of Obamacare."
This week, Michigan’s Rick Snyder became the sixth GOP governor to propose expanding his state’s health insurance program to cover more low-income residents, in line with the Democratic administration’s strong recommendation.
Now that he's made the decision, Snyder must sell the plan to the state legislature, where some members of his own party have repeatedly attempted to distance themselves from the faintest whiff of "Obamacare."
- I can find neither solace or comfort in government. I cannot find hope nor light among those pretending to take my best interest to heart. I cannot worship or revere another human being because there are none alive that can instill my faith. Give me the One God; the One Who had created the heavens and earth and had purposefully breathed life into me. The One Who dwells in the secret place and watches over me and always keeps me company when all others abandoned me. But for Him I would have no purpose in this life; thank you Dear God.
Jen,
In reference to your "I’m not leaving the party, but I know one hell of a lot of people who will. " remark, I AM one of those people, and I WILL now gladly lead the charge.
The fact that the state Senate has heard from the base of the Party about their feelings on exchanges- and that's nearly all of the base, not just us mere principled Conservatives, and still hangs the "Maybe" sign on the door to the Senate chamber, tells me all I need to know about the Michigan Republican Party and it's desire to stand for the principles of limited govt, less taxation, and prudent, responsible and respectful application of our taxpayer's earnings.
Why should I represent and support any Party that really doesn't support me, my best interests, or my principles?
I will not support a like-minded third party for the "fun" of it, for revenge, or as a lame "told ya so". But you can take it to the bank that I will support a third party and it's candidates with a fervor and effective mission to install principled Conservatives in high level elected positions in Lansing so that my ideals, principles and best interests are indeed on full display, and must be acknowledged and accounted for in all matters of state govt.
Wanna take any bets on whether or not I can present a compelling case for many others to do the same? I refuse to lose, and I love challenges. I believe that I'm up for this one as well. See you in November '14.
The Republican Party. We can change it quicker that we can replace it and believe me time is not on our side. The old guards are on their way out and I want to be around to show them the door.
In the time of the Civil War how many times did Lincoln change Generals before he found his leaders? He did not attempt to rebuild the entire army. He fought to save the Union and he made use of what he had. He changed leaders not armies. We the Conservatives and thus America do not have the time to rebuild an army. We are facing the same challenges Lincoln did and worse. He fought to save the union we are fight to save America. Our new leaders are just on the horizon and they will need our help. They feed off of us and believe in the Constitution. Hang in there and help get rid of the A-holes within the party. We all need your determination and anger to help get rid of them once and for all.
