Boehner concedes ACA repeal 'isn't the answer'

[wvit1001]

Three weeks ago, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) responded with a simple message to the news that Affordable Care Act enrollment had exceeded expectations: “House Republicans will continue to work to repeal this law.”


Three weeks later, it appears even Boehner doesn’t believe Boehner’s bluster.


Speaker John A. Boehner said Thursday that changes brought about by the Affordable Care Act make it impossible to just repeal the health care law unless Congress has a replacement ready as well.


Speaking at a Rotary Club meeting in his Ohio district … Boehner said simply repealing the Affordable Care Act “isn’t the answer” and it would take time to transition to a new system.


According to the account from the local paper, Boehner specifically told his audience, “(To) repeal Obamacare … isn’t the answer. The answer is repeal and replace. The challenge is that Obamacare is the law of the land. It is there and it has driven all types of changes in our health care delivery system. You can’t recreate an insurance market overnight.”

Because Mr. Boehner is playing "go along to get along"...it's a tactic politicians and presidents use to get something they want from the other side.
 
Mr. Boehner has proven he is not a conservative leader, that his loyalties do not lie w/ the best interests of the country.
 
We need to vote out all incumbents and start holding all politicians accountable.

Agree with Takn; John is history. Trey Gowdy will be in his job soon.
