1. "Death Panels" rang a bell with the base so they ran on undoing HCR in November.
Now the democrats have been touting how much money HCR saves the GOP has gotten strangely quiet.

2. Meanwhile, my repub governor, Jan Brewer
is a death panalist. Several Arizonans have died as a result of her cutting off aid for organ transplants, etc.

5. de-funding in The House and challenging in the courts
but they can't take it on head to head, they would lose badly and it would take time away from stealing retirement money from poor people and forcing rape victims to have their attacker's baby.

9. They talk a big line but they are perfectly aware that anything other
than defunds must pass the in the Senate and be signed by the President. They waste their time by making the effort for their base knowing that it will not work. So they will remind the base in 2012 that the Democrats blocked it if they get in trouble.
