Monday Morning Boner Fatwa: "job killing" Obamacare© is now "job crushing" Obamacare©. USA! USA!
Boehner's new word choice
By: CNN's Deirdre Walsh and Gabriella Schwarz



Washington (CNN) - As evidence of a slight rhetorical shift, House Speaker John Boehner abandoned labeling the current health care law as "job killing," and instead called it "job crushing" and "job destroying" in a new message posted on his webpage.

"Repealing the job crushing health care law is critical to boosting small business job creation and growing the economy," Boehner wrote in the post.

Boehner also said "job destroying" in his closing remarks at the GOP retreat Saturday.

After suspending normal business to honor the victims of the Arizona shootings, the House will vote to repeal "ObamaCare" Wednesday as the GOP's first step toward achieving the "common-sense reforms that will lower health care costs and protect jobs."

1. Can't Boehner's staff find less-inflammatory language such as
job challenging
job inhibiting

Republicans are fixated on metaphors of killing and mutilation.

4. Will anyone ever ask them, 'What jobs will it crush?'
"Name one job the bill will kill"

a collossal waste of time until they take 2/3 of the senate and the presidency. someone please come up with a $/hr. cost to run the HoR, and multiply it by the time wasted by Boner on this charade.

12. Oh what a difference that makes. It still sounds as if a fifth-grader named it.
