Well, there is only a 20-30% chance that Polis is a fool. But, that should be enough to remove him from Congress.

That is why academia and the non profit professions can be so liberal: they have limited experience with the real world.

Ya' think the stench might rub off on the fish? Good point.

Roger, please understand the topic before making silly comments. The only way to defund the whole ObamaCare deal is to repeal ObamaCare. However, the last CR contained funding for ObamaCare that was not in the original legislation. The Republicans do not want to continue that additional funding in this CR.

That is as clear as I can be. If you still do not understand it, well, there is nothing more I can do or at least am willing to do.

Still Sorry for you Rodger. But ACA may be the law, but any new funding for this pack of lies which is ObamaCare still has to go through the House. They are choosing not to fund anything that was not funded in the original bill. So, ObamaCare may be the law, but where it is short on funding, it needs new appropriations.

I do think, Rodger, that you are confused. The Republicans are not trying (right now) to repeal ObamaCare. They are trying to not throw additional funding down the rat hole. I suggest you educate yourself on what is being fought over. It is additional funding that needs to be appropriated annually.

Silly Roger. The House may have voted for ObamaCare, but Pelosi lost the House because of those votes. The Republicans took control with an anti ObamaCare message, so it is beyond stupid to think they should just roll over because the Pelosi House passed it. In fact, all these votes Reid is forcing his caucus to take may well end up costing him his Senate majority leader post.

Besides, Roberts only ruled the mandate involved a tax, not a penalty. I think he is wrong because if it is a tax, it is an unapportioned tax which is unconstitutional. He was not asked to rule on any other part of ObamaCare, so to say it was approved by the Supreme Court is a bridge way too far. In fact, the Supreme Court did rule the whole Medicaid threat was "not approved".

Agreed. And, by the time we get to 2014 elections, the hot buttone will not be the debt ceiling or the CR, it will be how the candidate voted on ObamaCare. And, this intransigence by Obama and Reid is forcing red state Senators up fo relection to vote for ObamaCare. That is not such a good place to be.

What a strange position. A sitting legislator is advocating that laws be ignored. Can I ignore laws I don't like, too.

That should be impeachable and Feinstein should resign. What is the point of having her as a legislator?

Connecticut seems to forget it is a small state. It is not difficult to go to a neighboring state or the Internet to buy those items. It appears Connecticut is a state run by idiots. Anarchy would be preferable to government by those clowns.
