Any “replacement” will include government control and more bureaucrats. Republicans cannot allow many thousands of bureaucrats to lose their jobs and will not cut off the sources of income provided for them through and because of obamacare. If they were serious about returning American Medicine to going away pre-eminence in the world and accessability to everyone they would simply and cleanly repeal the monster and all the parts of other laws that were passed as part of it but in different packages. No replacement. Just remove the government from the fields of Medicine and Insurance altogether. They will not do that because they cannot let go of something they think they control and that is a rich source of campaign funding and outright corruption.
I too am blown away this DU transplant is still here. This ultra left liberal has no business here other than being a troll; something, probably the only thing, he's good at.
He will deny being a liberal but all it takes is to read his posts to see quite clearly he's a full blown leftist. A toothpick would not fit between him and the wall; that's how far left he is.
wasn’t there a black senator in the 60s or 70s. Can’t recall name. 1960s that is
Thanx. I don’t see your reply to the other post.
It’s refreshing to see a politician to not respond to hateful remarks with the usual speech or apologises for being a black conservative. He cut the conversation off completely with that one word.
Isn't he the one who Barbara Wawa bragged about her long term affair????
I think one reason he was so calm is because it was clearly another Black person saying it (Simone?) and it’s an in-group thing.
Agree, the name would suggest that it was another black person and they are cooler with slinging the N-word around. But anyhow, at least Scott used the occasion to not bristle about it but to utter an implied rebuke at its level.
Hey I’m even better than a House “n’er” — I am a Senate one.
Sometimes a sense of humor can save the day... and have the fool who tried to offend you end up being the one gnashing his/her teeth.
Thats as good as Allen West dropping off Chick Fil A fried chicken at the CBC and then leaving.
What other post?
You could be right
Love it!
When CNN ran a screen caption of “Nigger Ennis,” he replied, “I guess they thought I was a rap singer.
I must be dense. I loved that Beatles song as a kid, but never once made that connection, as black as I am. I guess it's because I've never given a damn about race, one way or the other.
True, the random listener wouldn’t get it. It was in one of Paul McCartney’s memoirs, I believe.
So anyhow, since you were a blackbird who had already flown, you’d view it as rather moot if told it was about yourself.
Anyhow, some visions are not so much wrong, as well before their time. If the attempt is made to execute them in the wrong way or prematurely, trouble ensues. God had to seed the souls into history, so to speak, so a godly answer would come.
And actually I’m not surprised at people, like Donald Trump, and apparently you, who don’t see a lot about God in this (yet). The reason is that churches, for centuries, have essentially centered around a God that is way too little. Far too little than what the bible tells us about. Well, eventually the Lion of Judah (another biblical term for God) will break out of that cage and we see things that look absurd. Like Donald Trump with a more audacious, God-dimensioned plan than any envisioned by a church, and he’s scarcely religious in a church sense at all. Or the biblical story that bible scholars call the good Samaritan (when it would probably be better termed the Samaritan who obeyed God). Samaritans were considered religious and social misfits, maybe like we would view the Appalachian snake handlers today. Or a movement that I wonder if I have begun to see — Hindus of India embracing Jesus Christ and worshiping Him like they do their other gods — i.e. like they really mean it.
I came in late and duplicated your comment.
