I think the GOP idea should be "Throw out this garbage and start all over again."

If the GOP hasn’t got the message by now, there’s no hope for them. What is it about a devastating trifecta of Dem losses they don’t understand?

Here’s two ideas for you Zero:

1.Let people buy insurance across state lines

2.Institute tort reform

Those are the only winners that Conservatives will support. Those would dramatically bring down the cost of Healthcare in our country. But you get too much money from those entities to do those two things, don’t you?

Well, idle hands are the devil’s workshop. It’s nice to give them something to do until November. I mean, really, how long can you sit and do nothing? I mean, I could use a few days off to stare at a plant, but there comes a point when I become the object of my observation.

He’s trying to shift the blame to Congress and specifically Republicans for the failure to pass HC. Nice try Barry. Your Health Care Plan sucks and no one wants it.

If the Dems and Jack Squat are not willing to scrap the entire existing healthcare legislation as it is now and start the process over, one response: Hell NO!

Once that was finished, Obama said, the next step would be "to call on our Republican friends to present their ideas."

Right! Because the Dems don't have a clue about what to do next.

It's as simple as 1-2-3:

1. Tort reform.

2.Ability to purchase across state lines.

3. No public option .

Why would the GOP saddle up their horses to ride with NaBamoleon to his Waterloo?

The Democrats' idea of bipartisanship is for the GOP to embrace a health care bill rejected by the American people.

NO THANKS!

It’s a little late for compromise, Zero. You can’t try to cram your Socialist Dream through the Senate 60-40 and then ask the Republicans to trim a little to make it fit 59-41.

You have to go back to the drawing board.

Throw out the individual mandate. Throw out the pre-existing conditions. Throw out the Death Panels. Throw out the new taxes. Throw out the straight-jacketing of insurance policies.

Add in tort reform. Add in individual ownership of policies. Add in interstate competition. Add in tax breaks for individual purchases and medical savings accounts. Come up with market-based solutions.

Drive a stake through the heart of single payer. Give up on the fantasy of government nationalization of health care. Let the people be free.

Then we’ll talk...

The GOP will say that any bill without extensive tort reform is a non-starter, which will cut the legs from under Democrat funding so they will refuse. D.O.A.

(the fact that Barry is even thinking about talking to the GOP shows he is out of options)

Translation:

Get GOP in a room, show them the bill Harry and Nancy have put together. Tell them that this is what will be voted on. Bolt from the room to an adoring media and tell them that the Republicans refused to compromise. Blame Republicans for the failure to get a bill through. In short, all a political tactic from a man who is decrying politics.
