How To Repeal
ObamaCare
By Michael Hammond
Sunday, January 23rd
To listen to the liberal media, you would think conservatives had won
the first and only battle on ObamaCare repeal –- but already lost the
war.
The Washington Post, echoing the almost universal media theme
(including Fox), called the vote “largely symbolic.” Over and over
again, we have been told that ObamaCare will never be repealed and we
are wasting our time to even think about it.
And, incidentally, the stupid Republicans reinforce this theme when
they concede at the beginning of each interview that they are too
flaccid and ineffectual to prevail. Compare this to the “We will win!”
mantra Obama used to pass ObamaCare in the first place.
Ironically, we are probably only about four Senate votes short of
sending the repeal bill to Obama’s desk in the 112TH Congress. And, if
Republicans have the courage to tack repeal onto the debt limit or
continuing resolution, even without those four votes, the House will
have the capacity to present Obama with a choice:
• sign the ObamaCare repeal; or
• shut down the administration’s rulemaking powers
for the next two years.
That’s right. No regulatory cap-and-trade. No NLRB requirements that
employers encourage unionization. No BATF gun registries for multiple
sales. No massive new administratively designated wilderness areas. No
taxpayer funded TV commercials touting ObamaCare. No ObamaCare
implementation.
In September, 2009, Obama was more than four votes short of passing
ObamaCare. He initially fell more than four votes short of ratifying
START, repealing don’t-ask-don’t-tell, creating a 9/11 entitlement, and
regulating small farms. Yet, he moved ruthlessly and methodically to
pick up the votes he needed. And the Hypocrite Press, not surprisingly,
didn’t whine that these initiatives were “symbolic” or “a waste of
time.”
Here are the steps to repealing ObamaCare:
