It's the Democrats, who apparently believe that when a bill is passed in the dark of night with kickbacks and bribes, it is sacrosanct and can never be changed. Unless, of course, their King decides he wants changes like the union waivers, the big business waivers, and the Congressional waiver. Then it's OK for the bill to be changed by executive fiat and without any legislative debate at all.

Obama's supporters truly wish for a dictatorship, which is exactly what they have in King Obama. And he has the media behind him along with an army of people like you, who never question a single thing he does or doesn't do.

Thank God the GOP finally developed a spine to stand up to your and Obama's tyranny.

Ted Cruz led the charge to shutdown the government if it didn't defund obamacare. Where is this link that they voted to fund it.

Yea, I know. Hard to imagine someone would get their news from such a diverse group of sources. Sadly, most of America watches the big 3, and believes their lies.
True. There aren't enough objective media sources to go around. The best strategy is to diversify the information you get and avoid commentary 'news' shows.

The only one left on Fox worth listening to is Lou Dobbs. Here is his chalktalk on Obamacare.
After this he went on to talk about how the gov't shutdowns in 94 and 95 actually benefitted the economy. In 95 the GDP rose from 2% to 7%, during the shutdown. He suggested that perhaps we should shut it down every year (he was being sarcastic).

Here he clashes with O'Reilly on defunding Obamacare.


Bill O'Reilly Clashes with Lou Dobbs Over Government Shutdown - 9/20/13 - YouTube

This would have been so much better if Bill would shut up and listen to what his guests have to say. He obviously thinks voters are complete blithering idiots.
Lou is saying the GOP has to do what's right for the people of this country, and the people will be with them - I know I would be. Bill is worried about how the media will spin it, and it might make the Republicans look bad. Who cares? It's not about the party, Bill.
