Okay...put this into perspective...
"You want a CR bill passed? huh? You want the government funded? Ain't happenin till you delay that individual mandate!!"
That is pretty much undeniable blackmail...the government won't be funded unless ACA is delayed???? Okay, the GOP doesn't give a crap about funding the nation and it's the Democrats responsibility to make sure it's funded? That is TERRORISM.
Perspective? HA! YOUR perspective.
"You Republicans want to get the government back online? Ain't happenin' and we ain't negotiatin'! Unless you cooperate with our political agenda, the government gets it!"
"Cooperate with our political agenda..."
oh right. a law that's already passed and verified constitutional is a "political agenda"
Something that "without" the funding/debt crisis wouldn't be up for discussion at all is suddenly something you need to defend. GOP logic at it's finest.
Let's put it this way...
If the democrats were saying "Pass ACA or else we won't fund the government!!!" THEN maybe you'd have a case.
They aren't saying that. They aren't introducing anything new. They aren't asking for votes on it. They don't need to bring up ACA whatsoever. It's the GOP bringing the ACA onto the table.
