Every time I see RAyn’s smarmy face, I want to smack him.
Shorter: For God’s sake, don’t send it back to the House.
Translation: “I got it out of my Chamber and kept myself on the Koch Bros gravy train. Now I’m throwing my Senate GOP colleagues to the pitchforks-and-torches crowds at the election '18 town halls.”
Ya it will give your boys some time to hold a few more town halls so they can see that the constituents are behind you 110%
Trump: As CBO found out, In those two very long months ObamaCare will kill 24Million people. Senate needs to do it fast. I cant wait for my tax cuts.
God…these people lie every time they open their mouths. You btched that the ACA had to be repealed BECAUSE the insurance companies were pulling out and NOW you’re trying to cover your ass (or show people its just NOT YOUR FAULT) that insurance companies pulled out AFTER the repeal because everybody took too damn long to fk people in the USA. Reprehensible little toad. My mama told me ‘what goes around comes around’ but and I’m still waiting for this toad to get HIS.
1/6 of the US economy treated with all the respect you’d show a one-night stand…if you were a chauvinist asshole.
Yep, it takes a month or two to radically restructure 1/6th of the U.S. economy.
Yeah, the Repubs are hellbent on hoisting themselves up on their own petard.
The insurers are pulling out very, very quickly. And we need to show the insurers there’s a better system coming. Stay in the market.”
Translation: So far they are leaving areas with the least profit, but we can’t expect them to stay out of these areas for long. I mean, some profit is still profit.
So the folks who claimed there were death panels in Obamacare will now be creating health policy that will cause the deaths of thousands every year.
Chief Keeper of the Primate House…
Never forget he’s as much a creation of a feckless, unmoored media as Trump was.
The insurers are pulling out very, very quickly. And we need to show the insurers there’s a better system coming. Stay in the market.”
He’s partially correct about that-some insurers are pulling out of the marketplace.
However, the reason they’re pulling out is specifically because they believe the Rethugs will kill the ACA. And when that happens, it’s katy-bar-the-door. Ryan appears to be under the impression that when there is no more ACA marketplace THEN health insurers will provide different policies. They’re not providing ANY policies in some areas, individual or group, Depending upon whether states like WI actual do opt out with the “waiver” the most that some states will get is just junk insurance policies and that’s it.
And there’s your freedom, right there.
The calculated plan to dismantle The Affordable Care Act continues with Mitch McConnell replacing Paul Ryan as the lead performer. McConnell, not surprisingly, appointed a panel of 13 smug rich white guys to make the decisions for the Republican party. Not one woman selected. Not one African American selected. The true Republican version of America as seen through the eyes of Mitch McConnell. I suspect when all is said and done this group of 13 smug rich white guys will hammer out a plan that is comparatively not as cruel and destructive as the Ryan/Meadows plan, but a far cry from the plan most Americans want and need. Sadly, I do not think there are two or three Republican Senators that have the courage or integrity to go against, and not vote in lockstep with, McConnell/Ryan/Trump.There very likely will be no portraits of courage from the party of smug rich white guys.
I want to put Paul Ryan in a sleeping bag, zip it up, and then club him to death – with Mitch McConnell zipped up in another sleeping bag.
Maybe toss them both in the river afterwards. I dunno.
I do not think he cares one way or another. Again, this is not about health care. The Republicans are willing to destroy a system to facilitate something totally unrelated to providing health care. When the upper crust gets their tax breaks, mission accomplished.
