A funny thing happened on the way to Obamacare: Republicans stopped warning about economic uncertainty and started embracing it.

Here's House Speaker John Boehner way back in January 2011:

There’s so much uncertainty about what all the rules are, what all the costs are, that employers are scared to death to bring new employees on because they know there’s going to be more costs on the health care side and they can’t judge with the information we have today what exactly that’s going to be.

And here's Eric Cantor in a November 2010 letter to his House colleagues after they won a majority in that year's elections:

Job creators across this country have made clear that resolving policy uncertainty in Washington and reducing the costs of government rules, regulations, statutes, and barriers to trade are some of the most effective things that a Republican controlled House can do to lay the groundwork for economic recovery and job creation.
