As a matter of fact, Senators Mike Lee, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and nine other Senators have already sent a letter to Harry Reid saying that they will vote AGAINST ANY bill that contains funding for ObamaCare. [Emphasis Ours]
But there's a problem... the GOP establishment isn't just running for cover, they're fighting Lee, Cruz, Paul and Rubio tooth-and-nail... they're actually telling lies to the American people... and some have even reversed their positions and have gone so far as to say that defunding ObamaCare is "stupid"... all to AVOID ACTUALLY DEFUNDING OBAMACARE... and we're not about to let them get away with it.
Why? Rush Limbaugh said it best on Monday: "I don't think they were ever serious about repealing health care, the Republicans. I don't think they ever were. I think that it has been lip service from the get-go."
And now that Lee, Cruz, Paul and Rubio have called their hand, cut through the lip-service, and put a proposal on the table that can actually stop ObamaCare... they're scrambling... they're trying to hoodwink you... they'll say anything... do anything... to give themselves political cover to avoid stopping ObamaCare.
So we're going to put every Republican Member of the Senate on notice... stop the lies... stop the evasions... stop the surrenders... and do not authorize one thin dime for the implementation of ObamaCare... PERIOD.

Lies... Lies... And More Lies.
Washington insiders reacted with glee on Monday over the erroneous reports that Lee was backing down on his promise to defund ObamaCare... but it was all political spin.
What Lee did was state an undeniable truth to Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday: "We all know that the government's going to get funded. The question is whether the government gets funded with ObamaCare or without it."
Lee didn't back down. What Lee did was expose the scare tactic that was first used by Barack Obama, and is now being shamefully used by the Republican establishment, to the light of day.
The truth of the matter is that no politician in Washington, including Barack Obama, will allow the government to go unfunded for any significant amount of time.
Barack Obama knows it. Senators Lee, Cruz, Paul and Rubio know it. The GOP establishment knows it.
And now that you know it, it's time to let them know that you refuse to allow them to use Obama's hollow threat of a government shutdown as political cover to betray you.
Pay no heed to the scare tactics, the only question that remains, as Lee so aptly pointed out is "whether the government gets funded with ObamaCare or without it."

Speaking Of Lies... Here's Another One.
Some of you may have heard Karl Rove bloviate on the O'Reilly Factor on Monday that refusing to fund ObamaCare won't actually stop ObamaCare from being funded because "99% of the funding is mandatory and not discretionary."
Rove isn't the only one spreading this tall-tale, but Limbaugh, quoting an article from the Heritage Foundation, set the record straight.
"'Isn’t defunding ObamaCare impossible because
most of the funding is 'mandatory' (or on 'auto-pilot') and cannot be
amended via the annual appropriations process?' Heritage Foundation says
no, defunding ObamaCare is not impossible for the reasons that you've
heard. 'According to the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service
(CRS), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
and the IRS... "'[W]hile ObamaCare provided $1 billion in mandatory implementation funding when it was enacted, HHS projects that this is largely spent. According to CRS, ObamaCare 'administrative costs will have to be funded through the annual discretionary appropriations.' "Can I translate this for you? What the Heritage Foundation is saying is that the implementation money has already been spent... ObamaCare's administrative costs will have to be funded through the annual - that means every year - discretionary - means, don't have to spend it - appropriations." |
So what's really behind this attempt to deceive the American people?
Limbaugh again: "Washington does not want it stopped, folks. Washington does not have a problem with ObamaCare. It's government, after all, and they like government."
Well... we're going to make them stop it. It's time to draw a line in the sand, right here and right now.
