No, the people that filed the lawsuit were private citizens (NOT CONGRESS OR "THE REPUBLICANS").....You don't seem to understand....."If it gets killed it will be solely on Obama's hands" will not sell with the voters.
Anymore than the shutdowns. What you think does not matter. Only what the voters think counts.
Now if the GOP can show that modified tort reform and inter-state cooperatives have the votes, then the fix can be made, allowing states that want their own programs can have them.
The GOP is shooting themselves in the foot over this. They have no leverage.
The blue states have their own state plans so they aren't harmed if the SCOTUS sides with the GOP on this.
Obama doesn't have to compromise because the GOP are only hurting their own constituents if they don't provide a fix that Obama will sign.
The GOP has no wiggle room. They are in charge of both houses so they have it in their power to fix the problem themselves.
This isn't rocket science although there are any number of morons out there who don't get it.
The Republicans didn't create the problem, Obama and the Democrats did.....
And the lawsuit was filed by private citizens (not the Republicans), and supported by a DEMOCRAT Attorney General....
But the Republicans get to fix Obama's mess, and it's on Obama if he wants to screw all those people!!!!!!!!!!! After all, the Republicans can't fix Obama and the Democrat's screwup unless Obama goes along with it...
It wasn't supporters of ObamaCare that filed the lawsuit so being disingenuous only harms your own credibility.
The damage to the GOP is self inflicted.
They have the power to apply a simple clean fix to the ACA.
If they choose not to do that then they deserve to lose the next election.
They can't blame that on anyone but themselves.
But they will try...just like you are doing.
So you are the one being disingenuous....
Unless you want to maintain that Obama should be impeached next time an individual commits a crime, there is no way you can hold the Republicans responsible for what some private citizens do.....
![badgrin :badgrin: :badgrin:](/styles/smilies/badgrin.gif)
And Congress will come up with a fix for the ACA...... Let's just see if Obama decides to take it, or if he screws all those poor people......
