It's not just conservatives

Obamacare may be the land of the law so to speak, but it is not popular with people as we are finding out what's really in it. And that includes democrats who were once in favor of it. When it was signed into law (2010) it had 74% of democrats in favor, but now only 46% like it. The support of Obamacare among the general public is only at 42% with 49% opposing it.

Obama recently said that Obamacare is doing what it is supposed to do, but that is just flat wrong. Premiums are skyrocketing and the CBO expects 7 million to lose their existing health care when we were told that won't happen. Obama's ally and avid supporter of Obamacare Hoffa is now not so happy and wrote; Obamacare will “destroy the very health and wellbeing of our members,” and “destroy the foundation of the 40-hour work week that is the backbone of the American middle class.” So much for the "Middle Out" bullshit. Even dem senator Max Baucus said Obamacare is a "train wreck". We have the Teamsters, the United Food and Commercial Workers and the UNITE HERE hospitality workers claiming foul on Obamacare. Add to the fact that 35 democrats just voted to delay the employer mandate and 22 voted to delay the individual mandate just goes to show how Obamacare is not working out like is supposed to.

Oh, and the IRS employees are now pissed off that they might have to enroll in Obamacare claiming it will downgrade them as they will lose their existing subsidies and vouchers of their luxury federal health care benefits. If anybody should have to endure this disaster it should be them.

And here were all these jerks who voted for and were in favor of Obamacare now complaining that it will hurt them.

Talk about not seeing the forest for the trees.

I doubt and don't think it is possible that any defunding is going to happen.
