I tend to keep political discussion away from this site, but I agree with this opinion piece, written in response to the GOP's anti-ObamaCare tactics of late.
“This approach never had a snowball’s chance in Texas of succeeding, since two-thirds of the government — the Senate and the presidency — are controlled by people who are totally invested in instituting ObamaCare. But this salient fact did not appear to be in the script these Republicans were acting out.”
