Politico says if you want to defund ObamaCare it's a "rebuff of Boehner" since Boehner said ObamaCare is "the law of the land"

.
Politico loves their Boehner:

Jan-Feb. 2015, "The Prisoner of Capitol Hill," Politico, Glenn Thrush, "Can John Boehner save House Republicans from themselves?" 

Page 5, paragraph 1:

"Earlier that year (2013), Boehner, this time united with Cantor, had counseled his conference to negotiate a quick deal out of the budget impasse before the government was set to run out of funding October 1. But then Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, the Tea Party darling, crossed the Capitol Rotunda to whip up the right wing of Boehner’s conference, demanding that any deal include a quixotic plan to defund Obamacare completely—another rebuff of Boehner, who had said that the health care act, while infuriating to them, should now be considered “the law of the land.”"...

======================

Comment: Perfect timing by a Ted Cruz PAC. I received a fundraising phone call on Jan. 6, 2015 from a Ted Cruz PAC a few hours after John Boehner was re-elected Speaker. I usually hang up on fundraising calls, but I didn't this time. I checked out the particular PAC while I was on the phone, determined it was legitimate, and happily made a donation. The caller made no mention of Boehner, made no commentary of any kind. It just worked out that in my case it was perfect timing.
