Raise The Debt Limit, Piggy Back Repeal Obamacare

From Politico. Seems we have a problem getting the senate to vote on repeal of Obamacare.

House Republicans passed a bill to repeal President Barack Obama’s health care plan Wednesday, taking their first major step toward rolling back the massive overhaul that has dominated the American political landscape for almost two years.

The vote was 245 to 189, and unanimous GOP support gave the vote the same partisan feel of the March vote to pass the law, underscoring once again the hardened political lines of the health care debate. Only three Democrats backed the repeal, a smaller number than Republicans had once predicted.

"The bill will head next to the Senate, where Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has promised to block it. If it did receive a vote, the repeal bill would be unlikely to draw support from even a majority of senators.

If the Democrats and the Obama administration want to raise the debt limit why not,

piggy back the repeal of Obamacare on raising the debt. Democrats want to raise it so play like the democrats. Sneak it in on the same bill.

Bring up a bill to give seniors a $250 cost of living SS payment and piggy back the Obama repeal on it. Will democrats vote against seniors? O K, maybe not that but you get the picture.

Let's play the games democrats did to the republicans.
