Via Rude Pundit (cain't hep muhsef - the guy's on fire):
And notice the kicker (from the GOP.gov website) - they "repealed" ObamaCare on 01-19-2011, and then, a day later, they passed a resolution instructing their committees to come up with a replacement.
They've got nothing. They know their little scheme is going nowhere in the senate, and they know Obama wouldn't sign it into law, and they know they can't override a veto. So they pretend - they literally just make shit up.
But to hear them tell it, Obama's the one who's lying about everything?
One last thing - their website also has this:
On the rare occasion when the Press Poodles aren't busy wearing their asses for hats, we've heard a tiny bit that the Deficit's been coming down in almost remarkable fashion (which means the Debt will be reduced as well). And I've wondered why the Repubs aren't playing it up a little more, trying to claim it's because of their steely-eyed grit and determination to hold Obama's spend-thrift instincts in check blahblahblah. They've tagged Sequestration as Obama's idea (in an obvious attempt to cause pain and then blame The Prez) but gosh - it seems to be backfiring on them.
Sequestration's still a pretty stupid thing, but they can't afford to own it and they can't afford to let it make Obama look good. So by trying to have it both ways (as usual), they get dick (as it should be).
