There's a festive mood in Washington as Republicans in the House of Representatives are getting ready for their 50th vote to repeal/block/defund/delay/waterboard the Affordable Care Act -- you just can't go wrong with the classics, can you? This time around, the proposal (as if it mattered) would "effectively delay the individual mandate for one year by reducing the penalty in 2014 for not buying insurance from $95 to $0." This variation on killing Obamacare is the brainchild of Kansas Republican Lynn Jenkins, who just wanted her chance to introduce a bill to stop Obamacare too. And since it's an election year, there still have to be a few of the 232 Republicans who haven't had a turn introducing a bill to kill the ACA. That's just math.
Ex-race car driver J.J. Hightail's (actually actor Carlos Alazraqui) ad for Direct General's car insurance has him saying if it wasn't against the law he wouldn't have car insurance but since it is he does. Comparisons?
Here's a way Republicans can drop the mandate but keep all the popular features of the ACA: Single payer. Health care can be like the socialist police, fire and military.
Well, the Cubs have been trying to win the World Series for 108 years. So the House GOP is just taking a "Wait 'til the next vote!" strategy.
I resemble that remark, except that I'm in St. Louis.

The president needs to share this FDR quote with the House Republicans:
"Everybody is against me except the voter."

<i>The Simple Fairness Act will give hardworking Americans ... relief and protect families ...&quot;</i>
So too will minimum wage increase which is also simple and fair.
