One of the biggest fears of the Rethuglican / New Confederate Party is that the Affordable Care Act (or Obamacare) will prove to be so popular with the public once it's implemented that they'll be blamed for obstructing it on a national and state level. They're worried that it will become as popular and successful as Social Security and Medicare, and they'll be on the outside looking in. That's why you see perennial clown
Rep. Michele "Minnesota Loon" Bachmann introducing as the first piece of legislation in the 113th Congress
the total repeal of the ACA. This, despite the fact that
33 previous attempts have failed, at a cost of millions of dollars and precious time wasted.
Speaking of time wasted, this is the same clown party that brushed away a relief package for victims of Hurricane Sandy, until the pressure built to move on the package today. It's the same lunatic crowd that, after the 2010 elections where they promised to deal with
jobs jobs jobs, introduced as their first two measures in the 112th Congress bills to repeal the ACA and ban Federal funds for abortions.
