You act as if NO law has ever been replaced by another law.
At one time blacks and women couldn't vote. Prohibition laws were cancelled. 55 MPH was once the "law of the land" I could go on and on but, you probaly still wouldn't get it.
Your assertion that, " You can't just ignore the law" is pure poppycock and based on nothing.
I'm simply quoting Democrats. Remember them shutting down the government when Republicans wanted to work to improve Obamacare? Nope, can't touch that, it's the law and it's settled. Yet now, both Dems and irresponsible Rs want to just ignore the law and do what is politically expedient. Guess what...there is a reason the people don't trust either to responsibly manage the money taken from us.
It looks like the Speaker is joining the rest of America in calling out the right wing crazies in his party. Rubio and Paul have denounced the budget deal. Could this be the beginning of the long-anticipated battle for the hearts and minds of Republicans?
"They're using our members and they're using the American people for their own goals," an animated Boehner told reporters at the Capitol. "This is ridiculous."
Hopefully, this means the beginning of one of two things, either the conservative party finally has this internal fight for power.
Or it means the conservative party elected leadership is maybe interested in public policy, which means compromising with the Party that controls the Senate and the Presidency, and actually passing bills.
Either development will be welcome although, I am personally pulling for the first option.

Rubio should just disappear. He screwed himself royally with the immigration reform bill. He couldn't distance himself from that box of dynamite if he had a 10 hour head start! His opinion means absolutely nothing from this point forward.

Gee! He seemed like such a talented public speaker.

What? Even Republicans have finally awoken to the fact that the GOP has been afflicted with a cancer? What coaxed them to pull their collective heads out of the sand?
Of course, the geriatric right wing Tea Party set will be utterly offended that they have finally been outed even by those they considered a necessary evil peer in their quest to turn the US into a hell hole that lacks any vision or any plan for the future except "No more taxes" or, more appropriately: "No investment in the future - after all, I'll be dead by then, so why pay for it? Hey, I'm on a fixed income and already benefitted from past spending. Taxed Enough Already!"
We are seeing Conservatives pushing the Progressives out of the party and 2014 will not reverse the trend.
