I have never seen such a tantrum thrown in the history of modern day politics (if not ever) like we are seeing from today's GOP. It's beyond me why they keep wasting congress's time and taxpayer dollars on trying to repeal something that has 0 chance of happening.

What is wrong with them?

Never? You haven't been watching Obama then. You need to add another option to the poll:


They are the voice of sanity trying to save the nation from a pathetic liberal train wreck

You do realize the individual mandate was a republican idea which was born with Romneycare, don't you?

I do know that a good many law makers voted for it, in spite of not knowing what it contained and only voted party line.
It is an example of another bad law forced on we the people to satisfy partisan politics.

What is wrong with those that passed this colossal mess in the first place?


Over 70% of people screamed "NO!" but they did their backroom deals & bribes and went ahead with it anyway in spite of the People's will.

It actually started as a Heritage Foundation response to Hillary Clinton's hearings on healthcare reform. If you google Bob Dole's election webpage, you'll see his proposal is almost identical to what eventually became law.

You do realize no Republicans voted for it so your point in moot and irrelevant.

Why is Obama not upholding his Oath and not enforcing the Law which is his sworn Duty?


He has no power to not enforce the Law.
Another wrong move due to it being to his and his cronies political advantage.

You do realize this law has more to it besides the individual mandate, don't you?
Obama was against the individual mandate, why did he sign it into law?
