    Yeah they lost on purpose which is winning. I've seen similar arguments from other democrats.

    Pathetic, but funny too.

    I do not think republicans really want to take on health care as then they would be blamed for all the future great of corporate insurance comapnies

    Let Obamacare die on the vine. Then we can all pay cash.

    OK, so absolutely NOTHING is going to be done to get rid of Obamacare....

    So, how about moving on to something that a bunch of candy-assed RINO's might be better at, like figuring out the best time to exercise their stock options in a grossly-bloated, overvalued stock market. Or maybe devising new ways to kiss Democrats' asses so that the welfare cattle don't stampede and crush them all to death in the next election....

    RINO's and Democrats... they're both rotten, manipulating, and totally corrupt -- but at least the Democrats don't stab you in the back. They come straight at you and club you to death with degenerate cadres of violent, radical sh*t like ANTIFA, so you know what you're dealing with. Four more years of this kind of 'civil war' and this country will be humiliated and overcome by any adversary that still wants even to make the effort... but who cares about taking over a nation of worthless, useless parasites...? One reason only -- to SUCK IT DRY!

    because of the actions of republicans..... republicans are trying to kill Obamacare, they do not care who it hurts

    republicans have controlled congress for 7 years, plenty of time to write a fix existing problems or write a better bill...... why have they not?

    republicans are the party that claims they could do everything better, but when they are in power, the only thing they try to do is give super sized tax cuts to the rich

    If the U.S. Adopts the G.O.P.’s Health-Care Bill, It Would Be an Act of Mass Suicide
    [​IMG]
    By Atul Gawande

    September 22, 2017



    The fundamental thing to understand about Senate Republicans’ latest attempt to repeal Obamacare is that the bill under consideration would not just undo the Affordable Care Act—it would also end Medicaid as we know it and our federal government’s half-century commitment to closing the country’s yawning gaps in health coverage. And it would do so without putting in place any credible resources or policies to replace the system it is overturning. If our country enacts this bill, it would be an act of mass suicide.

    True dat. However, what kind of party tries to pass health care that knocks more people off healthcare?
    Healthcare is complicated & expensive but you would think both parties could work together on it.
    The pubs refuse to do this so you have swing & a miss times 3.

    Gee -- you mean everyone would have to start paying their own bills for their own medical expenses and their own prescriptions, with their own money?! Oh, GAWD, that would be just HORRIBLE! :omfg: . :roflol:

    You make a good point. Perhaps I should have said, "Gee -- you mean everyone would have to start paying their own bills for their own medical expenses and their own prescriptions, with their own money", or pay for their own medical insurance premiums to provide coverage for themselves?! "Oh, GAWD, that would be just HORRIBLE! :omfg: . :roflol:"

    Thanks for the reminder. Yes, if all the welfare-suck government handouts were terminated, people would have to take responsibility for THEMSELVES. Gasp! What a concept! :cynic:

    The kind of party that believes you don't deserve other people's money unless you're contributing.

    Is it possible that you have so thoroughly misunderstood everything...? At any rate, I don't need to work any more, so, I don't.... Have a nice whatever it is that you, uh, have....

    Like I said the last go around, I hoped the last try failed and again hope this one does too :) We will take the heat for a few months being called losers but two years from now with a little defunding here and there the Democrats version Obatardcare will squeeze American to the point they come unglued even the "We love it" leftist will cry like babies :) Nothing a Lefty hates more is reaching in to their pockets and paying for anything ;)

    I said early on that this mob of radical, welfare-sucking Democrats, and the back-stabbing RINO bastards who have betrayed every thing that Conservatives stand for are making certain that Trump cannot get rid of Obamacare. What part did I get wrong...?

    It would take weeks of unpacking all the baggage.
