 With just 15 days left to legislate before the August recess, House leadership isn't scurrying to pass job creation legislation or curb the looming "fiscal cliff," Instead, lawmakers are devoting their time to largely symbolic votes like repealing the Affordable Care Act, the 31st time such a vote has taken place. www.usnews.com/news/articles/2012/07/10/-obamacare-repeal-vote-coming-in-house-for-31st-timeWhether WASTING taxpayers money by being obstructionists or spending sooooooo much time and money trying to repeal the Obamacare DESPITE not having a snow ball chance in Hades of having Obamacare repealed, Republicans repeatedly prove to be the party of LOSERS.

They believe people are dumb enough to believe they're doing something of value. Ironic how gullible Republicans have become.
You need only look at the Bush years to see the truth in that.

Get real.
The "exercise" is to paint the bullseye on the backs of Democrats who support the hefty tax increase on the middle class.
This is the first vote to repeal Obamaisadouchebagcare since the Supreme Court exlpained to Mr. Obama et al that their "wolf in sheeps clothing" legislation is indeed, a tax.

The problem is, a lot of people are beginning to see a lot of good things in Obamacare. I'm not one of them. Just speaking on the basis of what perceptions are.

House votes 244-185 to repeal Obama healthcare reform law What a bunch of GOOBERS!!! thehill.com/blogs/healthwatch/politics-elections/237335-house-votes-to-repeal-healthcare-lawIs this the best use of Congress' time?Voters sick and tired of health care debateThomas Dean is sick of all the congressional bickering over the health care law. Sure, the small town doctor understands the law's technical nuances and what's at stake for the millions of people covered by President Barack Obama's biggest policy achievement. Sure, he knows the law has its problems and that House Republicans are pushing -- for the 33rd time -- to repeal what has become known as "Obamacare," or parts of it. But Dean, who is one of only three physicians in Wessington Springs, South Dakota, a town of roughly 1,000 people, has had just about enough of the time-consuming arguments on Capitol Hill. Dean is not alone in his exasperation. Americans have long held entrenched positions on the Affordable Care Act. According to a CNN/ORC International poll conducted immediately after the Supreme Court upheld the law two weeks ago, 52% of those polled said they favored all or most of the law's provisions, while 47% opposed them.www.cnn.com/2012/07/11/politics/health-care-fatigue/index.html?hpt=hp_c1

Always remember, according the right, if 55% favor something, that doesn't mean they're the majority.
They have to ask the Koch Bros to see which side is right.
