Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.) says removing the federal government's individual mandate to purchase health insurance is not American.
McDermott told C-Spans Washington Journal Tuesday, that Republican efforts to remove the government mandate to purchase health insurance from the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) will not work.

Glad to see the last of this pathetic jackass.
Baghdad Jim is still around?! Who knew!
The Congressman exempted himself from this mess.
They keep shooting blanks when they have no power. They have never had to persuade anyone on their policies and now tney are stumbling in the night mumbling non sense.
Well Jimmie, the mandate is toast. As someone once said, elections have consequences.
The individual mandate is the big objection to the Affordable Care Act. Without that, the act is workable in some form. The individual mandate is communist or socialist by its very nature. It must go.
What would this asshat say if Congress and Trump require American adults to purchase a firearm? Frankly, there’s far more justification for this - there is the Constitutionally-mandated militia, and having the populace armed and trained in the use of commonly available firearms serves the national interest. Certainly, it is more American than mandating that someone purchase health insurance.
Truthfully, the government has no such power - either way - under the Constitution...that, and this guy is a raging lunatic.
McDermott has always been a leftist fool. Glad to see that he is consistent until the end.
One schmuck, down, so many more to go.
It isn’t American for some pigs to be exempt. But here we are.
Great, eliminate the mandate and let Govt Obamacare compete with other medical plans.
For the first time ever, let Govt go find customers for its product.

There are many threads on FR in a day’s time that make you want to scream but few that make you want to fall down on the floor and throw a full blown tantrum. This takes the cake.
Did
Rep. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.)
, grow up in the U.S.? Did he ever read the U.S. Constitution?
Okay, someone tell me he’s a space alien.

No. Urine is basic and all it does to bronze is turn it a pretty greenish blue. Search Picasso’s goat. It was a bronze sculpture and he made his kids pee on it to encourage rapid patina formation.
He was born in Chicago; that’s alien enough for me.
As bad as McDermott was, his replacement, Pramila Jayapal, is someone to keep an eye on. She’s only been a US Citizen since 2000, she’s a Hindu, she missed many, if not most of the votes while she was a senator in WA, she’s VERY pro-immigration, and she came to the US when she was 16 to receive her liberal education. Her record is very similar to Obama’s. Hopefully she isn’t in line to be the next “historic” President. Since being a NBC doesn’t seem to be a requirement anymore, hopefully she hasn’t been chosen and groomed to come out of nowhere and run as the democrat nominee for President in 2020 or later.
Typical, standard tactic of redefining phrases and words then attaching these abominations to truth, facts and righteousness.
I thought McDumbass was dead. He’s really still in congress? Only Seattle ...
