Cornyn: Obamacare Repeal Vote Should Wait

Roll Call ^ | 1/8/15

Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn said he hopes his GOP colleagues hold off on a vote to fully repeal Obamacare until after Republicans have shown they can govern.

“I think it’s important that we demonstrate that we can be productive before we have the inevitable fight over repealing Obamacare,” the Texas Republican said in an interview with CQ Roll Call Wednesday. “We are going to have that vote. But my own preference would be we have it after we’ve been able to demonstrate that we can actually get some things done.”

There’s always another excuse with this guy. He’s obviously making a buttload of money from 0bamacare.

The easiest way to research a politician is to look up who gives them the most money. Many websites provide this. It tells you who OWNS them, sad to say.

[dware]

Thank goodness we won the Senate!

If you don't vote, or don't vote for the Republicans, you're voting for the Democrats!

*snicker*

It’s a great statement by Cornyn. I only wish it was said by someone whom I could trust.

[Texican72]

If Wendy Davis had two brain cells to rub together she would have run against Cornyn.

Repealing Obamacare would be a good sign they CAN govern...

[duffee]

“Someone has to remind these petty butt-kissing a-—oles that they are elected to REPRESENT...not govern, whatever than means.

Exactly, if you are governed to are a subject if you are represented you are a citizen.

[grobdriver]

Cornyn, you idiot.
Repealing Obamacare is governing!

How embarrassing...

[Tzimisce]

Wow - I’m sure glad I voted last Nov.....

[kidd]

Yesterday, Cornyn made a statement, to the effect, that the GOP won the elections by a large margin because people don’t want the status quo.

Now Cornyn is an advocate for the status quo.

[rwh]

Yeah disgusting ads on AM Radio talking about how conservative he is.

[hadaclueonce]

Now Cornyn is an advocate for the status quo.

silent John is always happy when his lobby checks keep coming.

[Mike Darancette]

I think that if the GOP waits a little bit the RATs will be trying to sink Obamacare themselves.

[itsahoot]

Now that our fake votes to repeal ObamaCare, will mean something, a new gas tax is much more important, don’t you know.

[itsahoot]

after we’ve been able to demonstrate that we can actually get some things done.

Not the things that you want done of course but thing.

[itsahoot]

These are just weasel words to justify getting nothing done.
