Voting trickery redux: Christmas Eve, 2009: every single Republican senator voted against passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care act because they knew the `rats had the votes and they wanted to look tough to their constituents.
Since that day they have flogged their opposition to the act on the hustings.

The `rats have so much confidence in their GOP allies that they allow a straight majority vote.
The Republicans in office then and now who voted against this law in 2009 don’t have any excuses for voting against repeal today.

>>>Flake is up next year, but he voted the CORRECT way. My thinking is he only voted for repeal because he is up next year.<<<

Which is only indicative of the cancer that has grown to the metastasized stage in our government. Truly it is time for a new revolution to retake our country - and that isn’t going to happen.

America, sadly, is dying.

The experiment failed.

The government has failed.

You don’t have a revolution with ballots and votes. There is only one way when the government must be overturned because it no longer serves the will of the governed.

The old fashioned way.

The GOP were for repeal of Obamacare only as long as their vote meant nothing. More and more, Congress resembles the old Roman Senate; a bunch of old, gutless cowards who want prestige without responsibility.

>>It is time for conservatives to work and clean the GOP via the primary process<< Yea...that’ll work Folks, this WAS our last opportunity to make serious change. It is slipping through our fingers, but one thing is for certain, the liberals that infiltrated the republican party have been exposed. We ain’t gonna fix it y’all. The electoral process is too broken. Too much $$$ flowing to power hungry/greedy individuals. What is going to happen, one of the houses will change hands and we will have true deadlock yet again. Then it will flip back to the socialist and they will effectively ram rod policy to finish off the republic as we know it. Bout a decade I reckon it’ll take. Trump was it. Our vehicle for change. Unless he takes on the swamp head on, shuts down this gubbamint, it’s all for naught.

Hard to believe they are that deaf to the will of the people. Absolutely blind to how this is affecting Americans. The notion of ‘just let Ocare fail’ as being some sort of solution is an insult.

McConnell stepping aside is one small part of this. Since there’s no leadership - Trump should call Congresscritters together for a ‘come to Jesus’ on this issue. Cancel vacations, lock yourselves in a room and get this done. Pick a new leader, do whatever.

In the meantime I’ll write that $500 check for my Daughter’s strep test. Then I’ll make another monthly payment on a procedure from two years ago. Maybe later I’ll check the status of billings I’ve disputed ($2K for a $200 item). Yeah... love the insurance I can barely afford to use.

My thinking is he only voted for repeal because he is up next year.

And he knew that it would never pass regardless of his vote.

Anything more than 2 no votes is not necessary. So this is a basic “up yours” to Main Street from the beltway pigs.

What the hell is wrong with them. They voted yes to repeal on the same bill last year.

Looked at facebook and Collins is now the darling of the left. Why doesn't she switch parties already?

***McCain has obviously decided that he is going scorched earth on Trump and Trump voters just to be nasty.***

This has nothing to do with Trump. Trump wanted Repeal & Replace. The majority of the American people wanted Repeal only. That’s who McCain and the rest of the Republicans just screwed, us, not Trump.

Just proves that the 2015 Replace Bill was a ruse. They never wanted it repealed. Actually it proves that they wanted Obamacare to PASS in the first place.

I’m so done.

The ONLY Healthcare bill we’ll see passed in the next 10 years is Single Payer.

You can take that to the bank.

Do not be surprised if it’s the REPUBLICANS who pass it, though they are sooo inept I don’t even think they can effectively manage to do that.

***The problem lies not with the GOP, but with us, the voters***

Yep. Just wait until the next election & you get bombarded by freepers telling you the lesser of two evils blah blah blah and people start getting zotted for not voting for who they are “told” to. I can think of a few people who tried before who are now gone.

Some people will never learn.

It's time for Trump to force Congress and staff to live under Obamacare. Who cares if they don't like it - it will just prove the point that no one wants it.

Absolutely! In addition, Obama gave out over 1,000 waivers to his friends and supporters. Here's a partial list of beneficiaries of Obama's "generosity":

Can all exemptions and waivers be eliminated via Executive Order?
