Law or not, Obamacare has some serious flaws, or Obama wouldn't be handing out as many exceptions and exemptions and so on as he had. I don't think Boehner should be expelled because you could make the same argument back at the Democrats that they're not handling their own very well by not repealing that themselves. But I don't really think that's the bigger issue.
Personally, I'd like nothing better than to just continue with the shutdown. It's total BS that this is the end of the world and "millions of Americans are suffering". No. A couple hundred thousand employees are out of work (temporarily) (and that's a shockingly large number of "non-essential employees" for any entity to have; I wonder if any private company could boast the same). I can't visit Yosemite this weekend. I can't renew my passport. Boohoo.
I want to see this continue on because when it actually does start to get bad (I'd love to see this stalemate continue through the debt ceiling debate), then people on BOTH sides of the isle can start owning their pomegranate.
