My teabagger Rep is saying Republicans no longer want to defund Obamacare. Now they'll push for elimination of the individual mandate. -- (link) - CovingtonCat Oct 10, 14:58 7

        Yeah, the early part of Goldberg was fantastic, right up till just before they gave away their only marquee match on free tv. After that, he was toas - Will Hunting Oct 10, 15:00
