Are you for every expenditure that our government incurs using your tax dollars? So why pick on Obamacare?
Obamacare is a hastily drawn act and no one really understands it even now. So it the the duty of the legislature to negotiate and whittle away the bad parts and make it workable. Shutting down the government just because a small group does not like it is political terrorism. You do realize that if Boehner allows the congress to vote on the CR as drafted by the Senate, it will pass? Instead he is held hostage by the TP. I read somewhere that the best Boehner could do is to allow a vote in Congress, let the act pass and then resign his leadership. Now that would be real leadership.
