Friday during a news conference, House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) offered remarks on his decision not to proceed ahead with a vote on the American Health Care Act, which would have according to Ryan began the process of repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act, also know as Obamacare.
During the question and answer session, Ryan was asked about the prospect of another stab at repealing and replacing Obamacare, to which he said, “We’re going to be living with Obamacare for the foreseeable future.”

Paul Ryan sucks donkeys.
Let the HHS Secretary administratively dismantle it.
Did anyone here actually believe Obamacare was going to be repealed?? I sure didn’t and still don’t.
Dear Mr President,
It is time to concede, Congress will never repeal Obamacare nor will they do anything of substance to improve the lives of Americans. This is all smoke and mirrors and we the people are going to be left holding the bag once again.
Why don’t you just Concede to Obamacare?? Not only should you concede this trivial fight I think you should FULLY EMBRACE OBAMACARE. Why should the Taxpayers be stuck with paying for all these Inferior, High Priced, Cadillac Plans for all of our 24 MILLION Federal Employees? Don’t our Public Employees and Public Servants deserve the Very Finest Health Care this COuntry has to offer?
I believe they deserve the Best Health Care America has to offer, and that is the Official Government Health Care Plan, Obamacare. So why don’t you quit pussyfooting around and Proudly Proclaim your desire to see that ALL Federal Employees receive the Finest, Most Affordable Health Care the US has to offer, OBAMACARE.
All the Money currently wasted on these inferior high priced cadillac plans can be diverted to the Wall.
There is ONLY ONE WAY to make it happen:
Executive Orders
1. All waivers to the Affordable Care act are hereby repealed.
2. There shall be NO funds drawn from the treasury to pay for Health Insurance for ANY Federal Employee except Members of the Armed Services.
3. ALL Federal Employees except members of the US Armed Services, SHALL purchase their own personal and Family Health Insurance from the Affordable Care Exchange in the state they legally reside.
And to make sure it is Bipartisan, President Trump should VETO it every Time and FORCE them to Override his Veto to Repeal this Monstrosity.
Sign these 3 orders and it will be FULLY REPEALED in Less than 30 days.
NOT UNTIL, Anyone want to make a BET???
I would also consider another Executive Order Withholding All Transportation Funds from All States that do Not have Their Public Employees enrolled in Obamacare, just to Prove a Point.
When and ONLY WHEN Government Lives under the Same Laws as us will anything substantial happen
Apparently we will be living with Ryan as Speaker too.
As no one is willing to step up and challenge his for Speaker.
Gutless wonders... All of them.
Does anyone know how President Trump’s first Executive Order works? He signed it on the same day he was inaugurated and it pertained to the ACA (individual mandate?).
Why not just start phase II right now? Y’know where all the “Secretary May....” clauses were going to change.
in the meantime why not clear the way for interstate insurance purchase, more cost friendly with more choice insurance policies for individuals and families, to operate side by side with O’care so that when we do transition pieces are in place?
Isn’t there also some nightmarish procedure just to sign up? How much money was wasted on that “website?”
Indeed. Good thing out founders were nothing like these useless oligarchs.
Exactly! The only way to make a cook straighten out is to make him eat the same slop every day that he’s serving to others.
Anyone know where to donate to help fund a Wisconsin primary challenge?
Why, in the name of G*d, do these clowns think that conservative voters want the gummint screwing around, and up, our health insurance?
Just get the hell out of the way and let the free market work.
I voted for repeal, not for replace.

Yes, and congratulations, @$$#01e. (Ryan, not you, C1)
DUMP RYAN NOW or all future legislation is at risk. Trump’s whole agenda is going to pivot on Ryan. He’s a traitor and cannot be trusted.
Relying on Ryan....waste of time.
Paul Ryan is the weak link in the chain.
Better the devil you know.....
No we will not. Obamacare is collapsing under it’s own weight. Then the Dems and the media will push through One Payer - Medicare For All, all because Ryan has neither brains nor balls, and the so-called Freedom Caucus has way too many balls and no brains.
