So Alexander is a ânoâ vote on the latest repeal?
Iâm guessing not.
âWe think of killing the ACA as more of a jobs program.â

Bipartisan, you canât believe a word the Republicans say. They took an oath, a pledge to put their party before their country. Theyâre just like their president liars. Is going to hell in a hand cart and itâs the Republicans and Trump thatâs pushing her over the cliff. Completely un-American unpatriotic treasonous very disgusting!c
You know how if a dog bites somebody and gets a taste for blood the best advice is to put that dog down, lest they bite again, and again and again? Itâs time to put the Republicanât dogs down electorally once and for all.
As for âbipartisanâ, what Democrats refuse to learn, like Charlie Brown and the football, is that the word means one thing to Democrats and another thing to Republicanâts. To Democrats it means, âworking together with the other Party to come to an agreement on a shared goal.â To Republicanâts it means, âDemocrats cave to our way or they hit the highway.â
Itâs kind of amazing how much McConnell is pissing all over committee chairmen.
I donât think we need to guess. During the voterama, he voted for Repeal and Replace, and Skinny Repeal. His call for bipartisanship is every bit as hollow as McCainâs appeal for regular order.
Thatâs how McConnell marks his territory. Itâs a management technique he learned from Trump.
According to the real world folks on the right that I know, apparently the anger, yelling, and fighting everywhere since liberals lost the election (clearly liberalâs fault) is the source of our countryâs great divide and the inability to pass legislation.
The level of hypocrisy is appalling.
The inability to recognize and take responsibility for the shitty behavior by the GOP over 8 years is criminally ludicrous.
More like 58 years, actually.
I would assume that this is at least part of the goal. Yes, theyâd love to pass Graham-Cassidy, but thatâs a challenge. Undermining ACA by interfering with attempts to stabilize it is more or less a given, now.
No need to guess: the story quotes him as saying heâll support it. His justification is that his bill would cover the period before much of G-C kicks in⌠How much is genuine ideology (he praises block grants) blinding him to the harm he seems genuinely to want to spare people, and how much is the Koch money being withheld pending repeal, who knows; I canât make sense of it.
Alexanderâs statement might make more sense if we werenât looking at a 2 week deadline, at which time work on stabilization becomes either a moot point or the only game in town.
Amen! If anything shows us how cowardly the average Republican senator is, itâs the fact that theyâre letting McConnell rule the senate as his own personal fiefdom. Itâs hard to believe.
The bi-polar GOP Senate doesnât do bipartisanâŚ
Oh my friggen god!!! What is wrong with these ass clowns??!! Again, actions by the retards in Congress have us all shaking our heads wondering what the hell is wrong with these idiots?? These two are trying to do the RIGHT FRIGGEN thing for a change and these other ass holes are trying to stop it, I donât get it. No wonder the public hates the Gov and especially Congress. Trump and his band of crooks and clueless morons have to go. We can only hope that the three Senators that killed the last one stand up again. Time for the public to put the pressure on again.
