Absolutely true but it’s a different group now. Especially with trump. The country is so far left we have to get back to center somehow. HFC will come around

who says they can’t keep it? Who’s to say it had to be done in one month or else it could never get done ever? Who’
s to say that we shouldn’t attempt several times to make sure we get it absolutely right, or as close to possible since hte previous obamacare was such a colossal screw up and complicated mess?

Let’s define ‘center’, first, shall we? Is that anywhere close to Constitutional? Or we talking ‘status quo’ of Socialism of the 00’s, 80’s, 60’s, 40’s...?

Sorry, ‘Different group’? Anything submitted, or passed, that would show the ‘difference’ of ‘this group’ vs. the past (R) (aka govt\uniparty) cabal??

Nobody challenged Mr. Munster for the Speaker chair, nobody’s been in front of the cameras (aside for the DEMs I should say), nobody’s been re-affirming the promises a/o platform of the party. No wall\illegals\dreamers, no budget, no tax, no O’Care repeal.

Yet, you expect the (R) to repeal an entitlement, even as young as THIS?? They can’t defund PP, PBS, NPR or the NEA.

Seems like the same damn group every time to me, FRiend.

Worse yet, I’ll be expecting to see many of the same here harping again, “We just need # more in the House\Senate...”, “We’ve got to fight WITHIN the party...”, “3rd party is a vote for the DEMs\KOOKY\DANGEROUS...”, “We’ll hold their feet to the fire...” come election time.

Oh please. Just stop it! The vote went down. Hope you are right but we have a better potus than we’ve had in 30 yrs and we screwed up bigtime with this vote. His presidency is not over but I sure hope the wall. The Supreme Court. Tax reform. EPA takedown. Etc. continue. Plenty of blame to go around if it doesn’t.

Halle-fricking-lujah to that too.

That will come to be seen...or not. Sure hope for the best, but I’m not of the rainbows\unicorns crowd whom think we can pull the Republic back from its 100+yr slide into Socialist Democratic land.

True on the blame game. Though, I mostly hold the electorate w/ the most contempt: 90%+ re-election of known criminals and back-stabbers?! They deserve the most scorn.

Paul Ryan is NOT a leader, does NOT know how to build a consensus, CANNOT be trusted, IS an embarrassment to America, and NEEDS to be replaced immediately.

This massive incompetence all shows how lazy, unprepared, and flatfooted Ryan and the rest of Congress is. They voted 60 times to repeal this piece of crap, and now that they know it WILL be repealed, they don’t have the guts to do what whey did 60 times before.

REPLACE RYAN NOW!!!

There is nothing enlightening about The Gateway Pundit.

May as well read National Enquirer.
