What is the matter with them? Why doesn't the Republican Congress get their act together and repeal Obamacare now?!

Lots of doctors don’t take obamacare. So what the good is that?

Every three or four days, I hear a different story on how the O-Care repeal is going. Not sure what to believe.

You’re right. A Dermatologist I saw a while back does not take Obamacare. He hates Obama.

One reason is that Congress exempted itself from mulatto-care ... so what do they care about what their constituents who voted them into office have to suffer?!

Another reason is because it's clear they will do just about anything to stall or defeat President Trump's plans to Make America Great Again. (Aren't we fortunate to have control of both the House and Senate?!)

Because many, many elected Republicans aren't conservatives or even free-market leaning. The hard part starts after the election is won.

Reagan had it right: “Government is the problem.”

They do have their act together. That’s what it is, an act.

“two GOP committee chairmen urge the president to continue payments to insurers that could shore up the insurance market.”

Yep! That’s the typical “fat-cat” boys in the GOP leadership’s standard mode of operation...get rich with the support of “fat-cats” in the financial and insurance industries.

Two GOP committee chairmen (crooks) doing what they have always done...get richer with each business they mandate us to do business with...banks....insurance....medical ripoffs! Nothing has changed with the GOP except they got the President they didn’t want and now they are trying to stab in in his back and hopefully somehow get rid of him.

Nothing has changed and it’s time to form a new party that reflects the needs and wishes of the common working stiff.

If the house and senate wants to authorize these payments, include it in a spending bill. Trump can decide to veto or not. What Obama was doing was unconstitutional.

Everyone now should be able to see that the U.S. government is irreparably broken...broken by the greedy, self-serving creatures that inhabit it.

I would urge folks to take this with a grain of salt.

It may or may not be true, and the Atlantic isn’t exactly a trusted source.

I recall a few weeks back there was an article claiming Health Care wouldn’t be pushed through until next year.

Days later it was revealed that the Senate will have it’s bill ready and passed by July the 4th.

Hang in there.
