To fund or Not to fund the ACA? That is the question?

We are about to feel the consequences of elections. I have maintained that it is the voters who are ultimately responsible for the consequences of elections. So now to the consequence… I predict we will see the same pattern play out as we did in 2011, the last time the CR (continuing resolution) tragedy played on stage.

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis Nobler in the mind to suffer
The Slings and Arrows of outrageous Fortune,
Or to take Arms against a Sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them: to die, to sleep
No more; and by a sleep, to say we end
The Heart-ache, and the thousand Natural shocks

Yes, once again the question is whether to shut down the government over the ACA. I think it is time to seriously accept this proposition. I have faith in the people more than I trust the politicians to do the right thing. We have to believe that we can overcome the forces that seek to divide our country and work together to reduce the reach of the nanny state. Look for the House of Representatives to stretch the CR to the wall, like December, say Christmas or New Years and expect the same for the Immigration Bill, maybe not the Senate version, but a version that after it goes to committee will not look anything like what you have been told it would be by your Representative.

So as to allow you to focus on the task at hand which is the election in November 2014. Please accept my challenge and start doing your homework by learning about the Senate race to replace Senator Saxby Chambliss. I have started a website that posts all the news from the media concerning the candidates running. It does not support any candidate over another candidate. It aggregates the stories and allows you to make up your own mind. Please take a look from time to time to see what is happening in the Senate Campaign.
