One way or another the GOP must make sure 20-30 million people lose health insurance.*
*Assured it will cost them at most maybe 500,000 of those voters.
So sayeth the Arizona Senator who has been the beneficiary of taxpayer paid health care for how many years now?
McCain said it would be a âmistakeâ if the Graham-Cassidy legislation didnât follow regular order, but that âit doesnât mean I wouldnât vote for it.â
Shorter John Sidney McCain III: âI got my cancer care, so screw you, suckers!â
The GOPâs Obamacare Jihad continues in earnest. Wash, rinse, repeat.
Just when you thought he was trying to get into heavenâŚ
Q - anybody know if this proposed bill will require 50+ or 60 votes to pass?
Is anyone really surprised?
Sadly, no.
I assume it has to be run through CBO but the Parliamentarian has said they have until 9/30 to use reconciliation for health care. So if it otherwise meets the reconciliation requirements, I assume they could do it with 50+ Pence. I guess the question is whether it can be written, sent to CBO, scored, and voted on by 9/30. I assume theyâll move Hell and Earth to make that happen. Question is with all the other stuff on their plate plus two hurricanes⌠Although I guess DACA, debt limit and CR are taken care of now.
I see the maverickiness has ebbed again.
Thanks for reminding me about the 9/30 âwindowâ.
Sounds like this could be trouble; maybe thatâs why the repugnicans are not putting up a shitfit over the short-term resolution: they figure theyâll get their âpound of fleshâ with killing health-care.
Make up your fucking mind, or whatâs left of it.
You donât repeal something until you have crafted a comprehensive replacement.
So, pure lip service to regular legislative process. GOP-thy definition is hypocrite.
That is the greatest hypocrisy. If a local politician did something like this, heâd be tarred and feathered.
âGuardians Of Plutocratsâ
It canât be said loud enough or often enough:
Fuck You, Sid McCrashcup!
Fun Fact: My brother-in-lawâs dad, a USN Commander, knew him. He would seldom say anything about him. But when he did it was essentially limited to: âI canât stand that phony son-of-a-bitch.â
His whole life. Cradle to grave.
Ahhh, the quintessential GOP these days⌠do the right thing under extreme duress of voters for five minutes and thenâŚâFuck you all!! What, you didnât think Iâd cave? Iâm not, this is the real hateful meâ.
You fucking stupid,callous ,venal human disgrace, thanks for your âserviceâ
