Discussion: WATCH LIVE: HHS Nom Tom Price Testifies In Front Of Senate Committee

Honestly, I don’t think I can watch this without throwing something at my TV or computer in complete disgust. This man should probably be in jail for enriching himself while in office under the STOCK Act. He already lacks an ethical moral compass.

He may be a doctor, but he’s not the kind of doctor that has committed himself to doing no harm…so fuck him. I have to keep my blood pressure down today. Give me the highlights when this POS is done. He’ll deflect and lie to the American people and his buddies in the committee will go out of their way to avoid their responsibilities to thoroughly vet this creep. I’ve seen this movie before. Two thumbs down.

Sen. Sanders did a great job asking questions and making statements. Thank you, Senator Sanders!! Additionally, Sen. Murray had a very good opening statement.

Sen. Hatch is despicable. Folks are NOT being denied access or can’t access innovative healthcare because of the ACA. As a matter of fact, the ACA has guaranteed more folks who need great care have it. You fucking asshole.

I’m thinking all of the Republicans in this hearing must be gay, because I’m seeing a lot of fellatio going on.

Don’t watch - it’s bad. Price is waffling on basic guarantees for everything from maintaining coverage to pre-existing conditions to other basic tenets of the ACA - and Patty Murray really exposed his questionable ethics in terms of his stock purchases. He needs to go down but I’m not hopeful.

I can’t watch. Gotta get ready to head out for some physical therapy while I still have coverage. Trying to jam as many of these appointments in as I can for my MS. Watching this shit makes me too emotional…ANGRY more like.

Sen. Franken is getting under Price’s skin … big-time. He’s asking questions about stock, tobacco stock in particular. Thank you, Senator!

I never understand why Susan Collins gets such a pass and it presented as a reasonable Republican. She is kissing Price’s a** right now and grossly exaggerating issues with the ACA.
