Are you KIDDING me, Cornyn?? "pre-existing conditions" is NON-CONTROVERSIAL???????????

THEN IT ISN'T INSURANCE!

That is utter ignorance, is it not???????

[DemonDeac]

Do you really expect better from our pack of RINO “leaders?”

[Recovering_Democrat]

My point: not allowing insurance companies to ASSESS RISK is taking away insurance company’s main function. Someone tell me why I’m wrong...I don’t think I am.

[Frantzie]

Cornyn is another RINO like McCain. They need to defund it.

[2ndDivisionVet]

When will there be a conservative party in the United States? Were the Whigs the end of that?

[wardaddy]

Didn’t take them long to go wobbly

[TexasCajun]

With armed IRS agents at your door to collect your mandated premium its a tax more than insurance.

[Brett66]

So what will they run on?

You better pull your head out RINO....

[ilgipper]

pre-existing conditions it the fundamental economic problem of the whole bill. It eliminates the entire model for health insurance, will bankrupt the companies, and raise the hell out of all our rates. WTF is wrong with this turdbrained idiot?

The solution is to offer tax incentives for individual purchase and phase out the employee/provider model. That ends the pre-existing condition problem 100%.

[Jewbacca]

Cornyn is from Texas? Ick.

[Joe 6-pack]

Doesn't surprise me at all. As head of the NRSC, Cornyn was backing Specter over Toomey right up until Specter's jump, and in CA he threw his support to Fiorina when Larry Elder came offering to run against Boxer.

[rogue yam]

I agree with you, his statement regarding pre-existing conditions is utter ignorance.

We need better representatives on our side who can understand and explain conservative principles.

[rrrod]

Cornyn is a vile disgusting little vermin.............

[PhiKapMom]

All you need to know about Cornyn is that he endorsed Charlie Crist over Marco Rubio in the Florida primary. Everything he says after that is pretty worthless!

[Buckeye McFrog]

Rush told them yesterday “Don’t even try to run on Repeal unless you mean it!” So I guess they came to a fork in the road then they took it.

[SmokingJoe]

Time to retire this old fool.
Heck even a RINO like Mitt Romney has already come flat out for repealing this abomination.

[Kenny]

What these idiot political animals need to say is, we’ll repeal this monster bill then, if there was any part of it that was beneficial to Americans, we will off a CLEAN BILL with that benefit in it. No special deals or earmarks, just the benefit in question.

[swain_forkbeard]

Utter ignorance is correct. Why ever buy insurance for anything if you can just get it AFTER the bad thing happens?

If you keep pre-existing conditions, you must accept the mandate to carry coverage and, by extension, subsidies for the poor.

If you accept those, you might as well go to single-payer.

[pb929]

I hate to say it but the pre-existing conditions provision in this bill has broad appeal. Trying to overturn that will be detrimental to the overall effort of repealing the bad stuff. There may be a better way to implement the concept such as using the high risk pools that have been discussed, but ultimately there needs to be some way for people with pre-existing conditions to purchase insurance at a reasonable price.

Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. The most important thing right now is for the Republicans to take back control of the Congress this year so we can put an end to the socialist hysteria that has gripped Washington. Then we can work on improvements from there.

[11th Commandment]

This is the same Cornyn that as Chairman of the NRSC rushed to endorse ...... wait for it.....Arlene Specter...... and today still supports.......wait for it............... Charlie Crist....

[Rational Thought]

I guess some haven’t learned their lessons....or they are members of the wrong party.

This is a recipe for a Third Party.
