Yeah, they'll put on a good show. This link says it all...
Republicans simply do not care about Americans, and their real goal is to undo President Obama’s legislative achievements. Republicans eager to paint the Obama Administration as ineffective by repealing health care reform and measures like financial regulation will end up wasting time and energy, but since they have spent the past two years being unproductive, their plans are nothing new.
Americans are still waiting to see exactly how Boehner and his lackeys in the House will create jobs and get the economy moving again. The economy is making slow progress, but Republicans have not contributed to the recovery. They will make a nice show of reading the Constitution and attempting to repeal the health care law, but a nice show is all they can muster. If Republicans think the Senate and President Obama will go along with their austerity measures and legislative malfeasance, they are mistaken. The Evil Behind The GOP's Mission to Repeal Healthcare Reform
"My fellow Americans, Republicans have refused to pass a budget that will fund the healthcare for 3.5 million Americans. I find this unacceptable, and I will refuse to sign any budget that doesn't include money for these poor individuals healthcare."
Next? Are they really going to say they don't want to cover these people? I think not. He is the President for two more years at least, and as such, he has a say in the budget. If they defund it, then the President can say no until they do.
Since the American people are behind the GOP in this battle, I welcome it indeed. Let obama shut down the government because he won't sign appropriations bills without funding to create those 150 NEW federal departments. Can't wait for it.
85% were happy with their HC and because of what the dems and obama did and HOW they did it, those happy with their HC will now pay the price.
Repeal and replace with common sense solutions that lower costs (which obamacare does not), and doesn't have the trickery and budget gimmicks the dems used to shove it down our throats.
The GOP has a mandate from the people on this.

You do know that the majority doesn't use the filibuster or has a need for it, don't you?
Since ALL appropriation bills originate in the HOUSE, obama will have a hard time forcing them to include it, especially when they have the PEOPLE behind them.
Don't throw facts at them. Let them believe the ruse the Repubs are playing to make them think their wishes are their command. It's nothing but show, meant for their gullible masses.
Obamacare is more unpopular now than ever before, because like hag pelosi said, we needed to read the bill to find out what's in it, and people have been reading and finding out just what a disaster it truly is.
I imagine it will get even more unpopular as the ruling of it's unconstitutionality sinks in and another ruling saying the same is likely on the way.

Haha. What facts? A poll? Here's a poll that says YES to repeal.
the GOP ran on repealing obamacare, they won an HISTORIC election, across the US - those are the FACTS.

that 60% favor repeal of the national health care law. This includes 46% who Strongly Favor repeal. Thirty-six percent (36%) oppose repeal of the law, with 27% who are Strongly Opposed. (To see survey question wording
From the poll.
That 60% is divided into two groups that aren't listed in this poll, but are on others.
Those, like me, who doesn't like the bill in its current form, and want it changed, not just repealed.
I personally would have no problem with Obamacare as long as they fixed the UNCONSTITUTIONAL part. The government has no right to force us to buy insurance from private companies.

See, someone that the Rasmussen poll lumped into the "favor repeal" category.
