12 GOP senators will try to defund Obamacare

A dozen Republican senators plan an effort, perhaps as early as Wednesday, to dilute the 2010 health care law by defunding it.

They hope to amend the stopgap spending plan now before the Senate; chances are they wont get far.

But they'll try. "ObamaCare is and never was the shining star that President Obama and Democrats
sold it to the American public as when they forced it through Congress,” argued Sen. James Inhore, R-Okla. 

House Republicans plan to begin writing a budget plan Wednesday that would repeal the law. That too is expected to eventually go nowhere.

Proving - yet again - the GOP's utter hatred for democracy: a duly enacted law put in place by elected representatives and deemed constituional - but, "sniff, sniff....we lost and we don't like it", so they give the finger to America and those in dire need of health coverage by throwing temper tantrums. Disgusting.

Treasonous scum - why do they hate America so much?
