When Republicans on Thursday sought to highlight their latest repeal effort by encouraging Twitter followers to describe “Obamacare” in three words, the White House decided to get in on the action.
With the GOP-promoted hashtag included, the White House’s official Twitter account posted a reminder that the Affordable Care Act still carries the force of law:
It’s. The. Law. #ObamaCareInThreeWords, twitter.com/whitehouse/sta…
— The White House (@whitehouse) May 16, 2013
A number of prominent Republicans, including House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH), promoted the hashtag:
#ObamaCareinThreeWords –> Repeal for jobs
— Speaker John Boehner (@SpeakerBoehner) May 16, 2013
Update: Speaker Boehner’s Twitter account responds, echoing his “arrogance of power” comment earlier today.
Arrogance of power –> RT @whitehouse: It’s. The. Law. #ObamaCareInThreeWords, twitter.com/whitehouse/sta…
