Right, Mitch. For 2 FREAKING years, Cruz has been trying to get you to send bills to Obama and force his veto--- but you bashed Cruz for his lack of "decorum".
Trump effect.
Notice that the moronic Collins-ME and liberal Kirk of IL voted with the Dems.
This passed with 52 votes, whereas 51 votes were needed.
The GOP passed this by ONE vote.
Good . Now pass something to stop the influx of “Syrian refugees” that are nothing but a danger to society .
Horse hockey! They had at least three bills - the longest only a couple hundred pages. Short and to the point. The dems wouldn't allow them to be brought up for discussion or votes.
Thank you for referencing that article VinL. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.
As previously discussed concerning Congresss so-called repeal of Obamacare, please consider the following. Regardless of 2014 campaign promises to repeal Obamacare, representatives and senators knew that RINO-controlled Congress would not have the constitutionally required supermajority votes to overturn an Obama veto of any bill that dares to repeal unconstitutional Obamacare.
And corrupt Congress is now arguably recycling its broken promises for 2014 elections for the 2016 elections!
Please immediately urge U.S. Senator Ted Cruz to Vote for the Pro-Life Reconciliation Bill
Is this satire?
We shouldn’t be trying to pass legislation to defund “Planned Parenthood.” We should be rounding their asses up and putting them in jail.
This is all about the RINOs running the Senate to print up a few show bills so their show ponies can get a recorded vote to campaign on next year knowing full well Nero will veto it and that will be the end of it .
So last summer Ayotte said she wouldn’t waste her time voting on legislation that couldn’t get 60 votes.
Anyone need to check the record to see how that little show pony voted?
It’s so obvious the republicans are frauds. All they have to do is PREACH that if the tax payers wouldn’t have to pay for abortions it would stopped the attacks on Planned Parenthood.
How quaint.
What is the trick?
No bias in the article, eh?
This is a show vote—boob bait for the Bubbas. If they wanted to have a chance they could have put the defunding of Obamacare and Planned parenthood in their gigantic 2 year omnibus bill. Of course Hussein would veto and shudder the Republicans would get the blame for shutting down 15% of the government. The Wall Street Journal, K-street, and other cronies do not want that but they did allow this kabuki theater. Sure Ted Cruz voted for it—what was he supposed to do vote against it? But he knows it’s a farce.
They have had two to four years to do this and never did. Now that Trump and the Public are breathing down their necks and the premiums are shooting up fast we have our little symbolic gesture. Too Little, Too Late GOPe.
Thinking ahead to 0bamacares ultimate destruction under President Cruz... I fear what crap sammich that Congress comes up with to replace 0bamacare.
It’s about making healthcare have value. Insurance is THE PROBLEM. Force a free market and competitio for the healthcare service... not the insurance. Make healthcare PROVIDERS compete with each other for your $$$. You will find that all the sudden it’s not that expensive to see the doctor, because you are chosing the level of care you would like to pay for.
This is doubtless true.
But it is very good, I think, that the GOP should force Democrats to go on record as supporting ObamaCare...
A day late and a dollar short.
Must be an election year coming up.
Repeal Mitch McConnell then repeal Obamacare.
