39 Dems joined, 4 Rs abstained...
HUGE mistake by GOP-e morons
Do you want nationalized health care? I don’t.
The only way to make sure we NEVER have it, is to let folks go through the grief they are experiencing right now.
We are bailing out the Left here. We are minimizing the downside to nationalized health care.
We are framing the argument that nationalized health care can work alright, and we’re going to fix it so it will.
NO DAMN IT! Let it fully flop. Let folks get so pissed off they won’t ever want nationalized health care.
We’re in effect making nationalized health care possible, by fixing it, so it works just the way Obama wanted.
That’s not just stupid, it’s downright suicidal.
121 post about an “Upton” plan, and NOT ONE photo of Kate??
Man... this board is really slipping... :-(
That “doing without” part gets me wondering if the next march on the White Hut will be a bunch of folks in wheelchairs, on gurneys, dragging IV’s, lining up to upchuck thru the fence, sick and lame dims all-—demanding their rights and their health care. While a march on the Hut is long overdue it might be surprising who actually does it?
That would be interesting wouldn’t it.
Any bill dingy Harry brings to the floor can be amended. Amendments could create a cornicopia of difficult votes for red state dems to take.
Big deal, for one year. All that does is kick the can down the road past the 2014 election cycle. Why not put in place a policy that people can purchase whatever G.D. policy suits their needs?
What makes you thing a GOP-sponsored bill to instantiate “if you like your plan, you can keep your plan” into law is an attempt to save Obamacare?
The most likely outcome is that it’s killed in the Senate, hopefully with a vote putting lots of ‘Rat Senators on record as opposing it: big political win for our side.
Even if it passes the Senate, Obama will likely veto it, and if he doesn’t, it ensures the “death spiral” for the exchange-compliant plans will accelerate as people stick with their old, inexpensive, catastrophic-only or high-deductible plans, rather than buying the covers-everything-whether-you-could-possibly-need-it-or-not Obamacare package.
Good!
The Bill is weak but Dems are against it so what the heck..
Not that much of anybody cares....
....but I think you’re right.
“The GOP, the last guardians of the Constitution,...”
Now that’s a laugh!
How long do you think they should have laid low because people are losing their insurance every single day.
To me, waiting as a political strategy while people are getting hurt is a Dem move. I'm glad they're trying to do something.
I will buy some stock in “hope”. I’ll hope with you that this messes ObamaCare up so badly that even the Dems see the wisdom of repealing it.
Yes, I think the opponent’s campaigning skills are important. I agree with that.
It’s also important if we’re talking a normally red seat recently taken over by a democrat in the last one or two elections. They wouldn’t be quite as entrenched.
Don’t worry. This bill is going to go down in flames. There is no way they can salvage it. Wait until it starts hitting the medicare folks. There is no sweeping this mess under the rug. We’ve only seen the tip of this iceberg.
Agree. We’re better than them. The video of the woman with the brain tumor was just heartbreaking. No one deserves the hell Obama has wreaked on our ccountry.
Well yah,
Neo-marxist senate leader Reid gutted a House bill entirely and replaced it with the ACA,aka,obamadeathcare.
The House bill was similar but nevertheless
When your opponent is in the process of destroying himself, keep out of his way.
Doesn't matter, as with everything, this will work to Obama’s advantage...the GOPe will ensure that.
