Fast-Breaking Update The irresistible-force of Truth, Justice and the American Way appears to have emerged victorious, although

hurdles persist; the House is to Vote on Defunding ObamaCare, although the strategy doesnt quite befit what this physician had envisioned, starting six weeks ago [although its inching closer]: Leadership sources tell me the House GOP will soon vote on a continuing resolution that simultaneously funds the federal government and defunds ObamaCare. Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor are expected to announce the decision at Wednesdays closed-door conference meeting. This means the conservatives who have been urging Boehner to back a defunding effort as part of the CR have won a victory, at least in terms of getting the leadership to go along with their strategy. But getting such a CR through the Democratic Senate and signed into law will be very difficult, and many House Republican insiders say a Plan B may be needed. Heres how my sources expect this gambit to unfold: The House passes a defund CR, throws it to the Senate, and waits to see what Senator Ted Cruz and his allies can do. Maybe they can get it through, maybe they cant. Boehner and Cantor will be supportive. But if Cruz and company cant get it through the Senate, the leadership will urge Republicans to turn their focus to the debt limit, avoid a shutdown, and pass a CR that doesnt defund ObamaCare. For the moment, though, the leadership is officially undecided. No decisions have been made, or will be made, until House Republican members meet and talk tomorrow, says Michael Steel, Boehners spokesman. To recap, to preclude a two-pronged attack on the GOPand now noting that the decision by Boehner last week to split-off ObamaCare-$ [inadvertently] constituted a step-in-the-right-directionconsider: HR 2009 [Keep the IRS Off Your Health Care Act of 2013] was passed by the House and could be appended to the CR covering the Treasury Department; HR 2300 [Empowering Patients First] could be appended to the CR covering the Health and Human Services Department; the remaining eight departments could then be amalgamated into one CR and passed [thereby envisioned to be passed by the Senate and signed by the POTUS]. In this fashion, the GOP would not be portrayed as the Party of NO! because it would have adopted [and funded] its alternative-plan, and the GOP would not be portrayed as having shut down government because it would have upheld its duties [per the Constitution, Article I, Section 7] to originate government-funding bills. There would be no D-justification to avoid passing monies that would fund the rest of the government and, thus, regardless of the fate of ObamaCare, the risk of a government shut-down would be gone. Meanwhile, focus could be trained solely on what an increasing number of Americans fervently desire, thereby allowing for the GOP to champion the interests of a burgeoning electorate grown tired of BHO. That his antics have drawn increasing fire from the left is HUGE [including the elitist crowds], and the

culmination of angst regarding misconduct domestic and foreign would be afforded a useful outlet [including yesterdays political-speechifying while he knew the Naval Base was being shot-upbut didnt know who/what/where/when/why/howeven condemned THROUGHOUT THE DAY on MSNBC].

Events of the Past Six Hours It was learned that one must double-post comments when an article appears in the Courier Times and the Intelligencer; this approach should be mirrored to yield maximum exposure. One letter-writer noted the political-forces behind one major TEA Party that are worth divulging, if only to note their triviality: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/12/freedomworks-rich-donors-armeykibbe-super-pac Powerful Tea Party Group's Internal Docs Leak "...internal documents obtained by Mother Jones show that FreedomWorks has indeed become dependent on wealthy individual donors to finance its growing operation. . .Last month, the Washington Post reported that Richard Stephenson, a reclusive millionaire banker and FreedomWorks board member, and members of his family funneled $12 million in October through two newly created Tennessee corporations to FreedomWorks' super-PAC. . .Big donations like Stephenson's are business as usual for FreedomWorks. According to a 52-page report prepared by FreedomWorks' top brass for a board of directors meeting held in mid-December at the Virginia office of Sands Capital Management, an investment firm run by FreedomWorks board member Frank Sands, the entire FreedomWorks organizationits 501(c)(3) and (c)(4) nonprofit arms and its super-PACraised nearly $41 million through mid-December. Of that total, $33 millionor 81 percent of its 2012 fundraisingcame in the form of "major gifts," the type of big donations coveted by nonprofits and super-PACs. (FreedomWorks' nonprofit components do not have to disclose their funders.)" It seems loco-regional efforts to help GOP-Congressmen do the right thing have extended statewide, noting that Shuster [PA-9] was challenged-by-the Tea-Party Movement. Also, after a group launched an ad-blitz against Congress ObamaCare Bribe, it was concluded that defunding ObamaCare need not be viewed as 'Suicide' After All. And the crazy-politicians have been out in-force, as Reid Blamed Colorado Floods [which caused massive destruction] On 'Climate Change' [and predictably used the occasion to slam House Republicans for partisanship and wasting the "taxpayer's time" trying to repeal ObamaCare]. Although a bit off-topic, it is necessary to confront John McCains recent behavior within the overall context of his lengthy career; regarding this particular battle, McCain advised the GOP not to Shut-Down Gov't, despite the repeated claims that this was rhetorically the emanation from the Dsbecause the Rs consistently focused solely on ObamaCare. Witness how he has portrayed a foreign policy that has attracted few adherents. Despite reports that al-Qaeda Islamists permeate the Syrian rebels {an issue that will be probed, time-permitting, over the weekend}, McCain posed with some while in Syria and, with kerry, cited-syria-analyst-with-false-credentials [who wrote a discredited essay last week in the WSJ]. Perhaps in reaction to embarrassment [of both himself and BHO], he will attack putin in pravda {an action that constitutes cinema rather than potency}.

He claims the us-lost-credibility-on-egypt and now has 'no credibility' in Arab world because [inter alia] Kerry's Message Sabotaged Egypt Mission; in reaction, analysts feel it's BHO, McCain and Graham [Grahamnesty] who made 'huge mistake' in Egypt. Also, McCain views the Next few weeks as a 'critical time in the life or death' of immigration reform and he is guardedly optimistic on house passage; as his Wife is Meeting With the Former First Lady of Mexico and his daughter Meghan McCain has Lost Her Base [The Media], his erratic behavior prompted an Official Arizona GOP Body to Pass a Formal Rebuke of John McCain andperhaps as a resultSen. John McCain has Hinted at 2016 Retirement. {It is so-sad that he has become self-marginalized.} Polling shows 70% voters 'concerned' about future coverage, as 51%-favor-government-shutdown-untilhealthcare costs are cut by Congress; a feeble defense has been mounted by Sebelius when she claimed people 'WILL CAN MAY GET COVERED' as another entity [MCDONALDS] pled for relief from ObamaCare. As a face-saver, perhaps, the House Passed a Bill to Require Income Verification for ObamaCare Benefits while it was claimed that this artifice, ObamaCare, Is Secretly A Bailout Of State And Local Governments.

A bit of levity has been introduced to assuage the stressors associated with this revolutionary effort: Introducing ObamaCare the Game- Everybody Has To Play Nobody Ever Wins. Back-to-business, recognizing the arrival of the following blast e-mail c/o Tea Party Patriots [corroborating the opener]:

We're Gaining Ground and We Need to Hear from You!

Patriots, We're getting down to the wire in the battle to Defund ObamaCare. Last week, your presence at the Exempt America Rally and the phone calls you made to Congress halted the House Republican Leadership's "bait and switch" plan to fool the American people. They quickly learned that they didn't have the votes to play the shell game - and it was all because of your efforts. Now, we are hearing reports that the House Leadership might actually vote on a Continuing Resolution (CR) that funds the government, but stops funding ObamaCare. If they actually pull through - this could be huge - and again it is all thanks to your hard work. But, we must not let up right now. We must keep the pressure on. Tomorrow morning at 9am, the House Republican Conference will have a meeting to discuss their strategy for how to handle the CR. It would be helpful for you to call House Leadership early in the morning to encourage them to do everything they can to stop ObamaCare. This email has 3 action items: 1. Call House Leadership (John Boehner, Eric Cantor and Kevin McCarthy) and your elected Representative first thing tomorrow morning to tell them you want them to take a stand and defund ObamaCare. You can contact the House Switchboard by calling: (202) 224-3121 2. Tell at least 10 people to make phone calls as well. 3. Tell us how ObamaCare has affected you (below). Are you one of the millions of Americans who have already been hurt by ObamaCare?

Have your health care premiums gone up? Are you a Senior who has lost your Medicare Advantage plan? Has your full-time job been cut to a part-time job, because your employer cant afford ObamaCare? Are you a young worker who cant find a job because no employer wants to take on your health care costs?

Are you a single mom who can no longer purchase child-only policies because of ObamaCare? Are you an employer who fears going out of business because of the expensive bureaucratic demands of ObamaCare?

Is all this uncertainty making you sick? Then we want to hear your story. Tell your ObamaCare story now. Make your voice heard. Dont suffer in silence. Speak up now! Anonymous submissions are welcome. Just tell your story now before its too late. In liberty, Tea Party Patriots National Support Team PS: Help us keep up the momentum by giving a generous donation. We have vowed from day one to leave no stone un-turned in fighting ObamaCare and we are going to keep giving it our all over the next two weeks and then until the law is finally repealed!
