Obama threatened to bomb Syria too. Let him veto this bill—in a vain attempt to look like a president. He is sinking in a quicksand of public outrage. Let him sink. He and his goons made this mess, let them try to lie and blame others for his failures. The worst is yet to come. Let every RINO who opposed Ted Cruz be held up and be cast out of office. Let that “D” behind the name of every Democrat mean Doomed—in the next election. Let us see not one Democrat-Progrssive Obamaphile returned to office!

Even if it passes, Obama said he will veto it.

Either way, it shows their callousness.

“The Upton Bill should be pulled.”

I’ve changed my mind on this.

First, this essentially WILL kill Obamacare. If Upton passes and it guarantees people can have their old insurance as they wish they will not enter into the exchanges which Obamacare absolutely requires in order to survive. Hell, Obama not only knew people would lose their policys, he was COUNTING on it.

Pass this bill and Obamacare will starve.

Another thing also, Regardless, a bill similar to this will come up from the Dems. The Republicans need to appear to be in the forefront of trying to rectify the situation and not allow Dims to ride in with their white horse and fix OC gaining them points with the electorate.

Either way they are going to have to vote on this type of thing and they don’t want to be the ones voting NO. Better to vote FOR their own bill and plant the seeds of Obamacare destruction at the same time.

This is GREAT!

As I understand there are 3 bill to bail out Obama.

He threatens to veto the Upton bill.

Harry won’t bring either the Johnson or Landreau bill up for a vote.

NO REPUBLICAN SHOULD ASSIST OBAMA IN SAVING THIS UNCONSTITUTIONAL BILL!!!!!

The Upton Bill should be pulled.

In a perfect world, where I have confidence that the GOP knows the art of war, I would summarize the the Uptown bill is a trap. On the surface, for the low information Media and Voters, it is a "If you like your insurance you can keep it" bill.

However, it does severely cripple ObamaCare. But some Democrats will go along for election reasons, although not as many Democrats if this was a simple delay of the mandate. If the Bill makes it to the President, he will Veto it. This will be a disaster for Democrats.

Again, the above assumes the GOP is clever, of that, I am not sure.

I hope the bill makes it to Obama's desk for signature. He can't sign it because it would destroy Obamacare. If he vetos it, he'll never be able to explain to the American people, even the low informaation voters, why he was justified in exercising the veto.
