Seemingly divided on how to fund the government and proceed with representing the interests of the growing majority of Americans opposed to Obamacare yet who oppose partisan gridlock, the House Republicans prepared a bill which would fund the US Government until December in every facet except for the Affordable Care Act.
The legislation continues to endure denunciation, unpopularity, and growing calls for defund, delay, and diminish. Full-time employment has become part-time under Obamacare, as businesses and corporations choose to cut hours rather than fund exorbitant healthcare costs. Doctors are retiring from their profession, frustrated with the red tape, the rationing of federal funds, and the diminished authority they retain.
Patients with health coverage still see rising premiums, a fact which the LA Times could not ignore. Media affiliates throughout the country are reporting the health care costs are rising considerably. Even the Cleveland, Ohio clinic touted as an exemplar of Obamacare appropriation has cut back on staff and resources because of President Obama's terrible law.
Notwithstanding the burning house of the Affordable Care, Act, which is proving unaffordable in its cost and careless in its application, Democratic supporters of the law are running into the fire and pushing this law's good points, while obfuscating about its dangers with statistics and distorted information, much of which is confusing in its cacophony of characters.
Rep. Maxine Waters presented three different experts, one of who advocated for small businesses, to portray the legislation in the best light possible. A nurse from Cedar Sinai misrepresented the number of pages in the law, while a youth advocated acknowledged that the legislation has not ensured that every American will be insured. The targeted young individuals who must purchase health insurance still are clueless about the law, and even President Obama has rebuffed the employer mandate until 2015, by executive fiat.
Still, Democratic House Members have traveled their districts whipping up support for a law which remains unclear or prolix to a plurality of voters, and a strong contigent of young Americans still have no knowledge that they must provide evidence of health insurance or pay a fine.
Now, the House Republicans have prepared legislation which respects to concerns for the American voter: keeping the government running, and prevent Obamacare from running them over.
The Associated Press offered the following comments following the House delegation's recent, headline legislation to fund the government, but defund Obamacare:
Typically, such measures advance with sweeping bipartisan support, but tea party activists forced GOP leaders — against their better judgment — to add a provision to cripple the health care law that is the signature accomplishment of Obama’s first term.
Since when has the Associated Press ever known, let alone defined, the better judgment of Republican leaders in Washington? Once again, the TEA Party activists are the bogeymen under the bed, trying to frighten financial markets and global stock exchanges with the threat of another government shut down.
The conservative caucus in truth includes every Republican, yet the tactical strategies have differed. Even fiscal Hawk Tom Coburn has shared his concerns with defunding Obamacare, submitting that such legislation will not prevent ninety percent of the law from continuing.
Still, the media bias suggests that Republicans are to blame, when in reality Democrats forced this law on the people, and the people do not want this law, neither by force nor fiat.
The Associated Press should not be cheerleading against the Republicans, anyway, since the current President has presided over a Justice Deparment which seizes reporters's phone records. How much longer do the media plan on operating should they continue supporting this President?
