The dems can kiss ass. Keep and Defend the Constitution Act should be on their mantle.

Everybody gets to go home and get some rest.

Senator Kay Hagan, you are up for a fight. Take your socialism and shove it.

This Nation is about freedom FROM government.

That's what it is all about, destroy the insurance companies, so that it will be a single payer system.

That may have been their original plan, but these amateurs completely blew it. After this spectacular, disastrous fail, the last thing anyone (particularly Democrats running for re-election) wants is government MORE involved in health care. These people completely blew their chance, and at the unbelievably wrong time (for them I mean!). The ineptitude on display is even being noticed by the lowest of low-information voters.

I think there should be no modifications or delays. I think the Democrats, as well as their voters, should suffer and suffer severely. Not out of malice, but so that they will learn.

Modifications or delays will only allow this "law" to "succeed". It must not be allowed to succeed in any degree. It must be defeated entirely. The only way that is going to happen is if the idea of socialism is destroyed. We must salt the fields so that this poison seed can never grow again. Their suffering is that salt, the fields their hearts and minds.

It is unfortunate that we who reject the Democrat's socialist swill must suffer as well. The body-politic must suffer the fever to kill the disease. The fever may run high, but it is necessary.

Every Rat that voted for the ACA must be taken out.

And every GOP’er that tries to help the Rats “fix” this must also be taken out.

The law is doomed. Let it crash.

I think the problem now is the policies are not legal, so if they vote on a “keep your policy” law, it won’t mean anything, unless they change their law.

If this law passes, is it a de facto repeal of parts of Obamacare, or are they creating two conflicting laws that can't both be enforced?

Someone who wants to start trouble can file a lawsuit arguing that one or the other law must be struck down, because they can't both the "settled law of the land."

So, if Democrats go on the record repealing parts of Obamacare, does that open the floodgates for Republicans to introduce other repeal laws, since the Democrats went first, essentially admitting it was bad law?

“This is just a feel good vote to help dems distance themselves from the very damage that they are inflicting.”

Get back on the sinking ship, Rats.

I think it was really a back door deal with the insurance companies to get reform by transferring boatloads of revenue into their pockets. No matter what happens going forward the grifter twits in Congress with ensure the insurance companies will make they money.

So all those people who’ve received cancellation notices (or “transition” notices) will receive notices that they’re back on their old plan?

And the insurance companies are just going to eat the cost of putting it all back like it was?

I will work tooth and nail to rid myself of idiots in charge of our nation.

I want the Constitution and nothing less. If they cannot keep that charge, they are to be dismissed.

Thanks SeekAndFind. That assumes that a war doesn’t start by then. Gasoline was $3.069, something like that, so I topped my tank tonight on the way home.

But that is the state of the Republican party. They should be sending a new bill to stop Obamacare in its tracks every day, and make the Democrats vote to continue this train wreck. But The Republicans will probably send up and amnesty bill to detract attention and piss of the American people even more. I hate to sound like this, but this is a great opportunity to help the American people. unfortunately the GOP doesn’t have the guts to fight.

The best solution would be to outlaw all medical insurance, and allow treatment costs to sink back to a normal level, like they were in the ‘50s before “health” insurance came along.

Health Insurance was the answer to wage and price controls in the 40’s.

>> “ Democrats will get to boast about their “courage” in voting for this bill.” <<

.
People will remember that they voted for the other bill first.

Repeal the law, coverage currently stays the same for everyone, those that lost coverage should find temporary solace until able to renegotiate with old policy or find one just like their old one, AND THAT IS IT, final offer for the Congressional dems (While explaining this "grandfathering" does not make economical sense, along with campaign commercials bombing this law).

All Boehner is doing is performing fellatio on the Donkeys. What Boehner needs to do is play serious hardball. This nation is hanging in the balance and he wants to help "softening" and polish the destruction, good grief.
