Graham plans bill to let SC to opt out of 'Obamacare' (by replacing it with GOPcare???)

Sen. Lindsey Graham announced his plans Thursday to introduce legislation next year that would allow South Carolina to opt out of parts of the new health care legislation.

Graham, a Republican, presented a large prescription tablet — the “Citizens Prescription” — that he, Spartanburg physician Dr. Larry Ware and Spartanburg County Medical Society Director Robert Conner signed to show their opposition to the Affordable Care Act, which Graham referred to as “Obamacare.”

Graham said during the news conference at Skylyn Medical Associates — where Ware and his wife run their medical practice — he will ask others who want to repeal and replace the law to sign the tablet that he will take back to Washington, D.C., to send a message to Congress.

Perhaps a special tax should be placed on any and all politicians that are in office to pay for this boondoggle. Since the politicians know better thaqn us average dumb citizens then they should certainly be able to pay to help us out. Those super intelligent a**holes voted it in so let them pay for it out of their own pockets.

This is what RINO’s always do: Instead of rejecting the premise of Liberal proposals...idiots like Graham and McCain offer thier “light” version.

Can somebody tell me why there are so many idiots living in South Carolina and Arizona who keep voting these guys in?

The two idiots in your photo are laughing at us, the peon public.

This is really a great life with lots of bennies and publicity, says Al.

Yes, and it’s so funny to observe the gullibility of the public and complicity of the press, says Lindsay.

Yeah, and we don’t have to listen to them, except every six years, says Al.

Right, and I’m going to have to pull a John McCain and act conservative in a couple of years when I’m up for re-election, says Lindsay.

Yeah, but you won’t be running against that deadbeat that’s running against DeMint, then, so if you’re not careful you may have to get a real job, says Al.

Not really, with the perks, retirement, kickbacks, I’ll be in fat city, if that’s the case, but it won’t be the case, says Lindsay.

Both laugh - that is when the photo was taken.

He just doesn’t get it does he? We don’t want this brand or that brand of national health care. We don’t want the feds to run it AT ALL. There is no constitutional basis for the feds being involved in our health care.

South Carolina needs to find an honest young true Conservative to get behind right now, and replace Graham and his Obama-enabling ways as soon as possible. Graham is exactly the kind of Uber-RINO that simply has to go, and is exactly who the Tea Partys should be targeting next.

Find a good candidate, and support his/her run.

Grahamcare? Oh I’m sure it would be wonderful unlike Obamacare, Romneycare, the Canadian system and all other socialist healthcare schemes.
