It’s a big club and you ain’t in it. - George Carlin
Drain the GOPe first.
All Republicans need to do is pass a bill that requires all elected federal officials and employees to drop their Health Car plans and enroll in Obamacare and they will have all the cooperation they would like from both sides of the aisle.
We need about 200 more Freedom Caucus reps and 50 more Freedom Caucus senators vto get a pure bill through to President Cruz
RINOs exist because they come from moderate districts. If you “drain” them...then you give Congress back to the Dems. Most of the country isn’t hardcore conservative.
Thad Cochran, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, John McCain, Paul Ryan, Jeb Bush, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, John Kasich, Marco Rubio and Ben Sasse.
Also, the footmen for them: Glenn Beck, Michael Berry, Dana Loesch, Steve Deace, Charlie Sykes, Brent Bozell, Jay Caruso, Erick Erickson, Jon Gabriel, David French, Jonah Goldberg, Robert Kagan, Matt Kibbe, Bill Kristol, David McIntosh, Katie Pavlich, Jennifer Rubin and Brad Thor, Megyn Kelly.
What I find missing in the current debate on RyanCare and the debate in 2009 on ObamaCare is a simple question.
Who are the people who actually wrote this legislation?
For certain we know our elected Representatives and Senators did not write any of the words. (Pelosi said they needed to pass it so the Congress Critters knew what was in it)
We also know for certain that healthcare consumers (aka ‘we the people’) did not write any of the words. (Consumers have seen their insurance costs double under ObamaCare)
So who wrote the words?
Did the Health Insurance Industry write RyanCare or ObamaCare?
Or was it the AMA, pharma, hospitals, trial lawyers, government bureaucrats?
Harley Lady,
We know who the top two or three turds are in the House and Senate punchbowls, but I have never seen a pyramid of the whole rest of each house. Who are the really bad actors just below the leadership, who it is that is paying them off, how are they personally interconnected, and what the strategy maybe for getting rid of each of them. As of this writing, we only see dribs and drabs of the GOPe. We need a clear roadmap that shows us how we get rid of those who are more interested in themselves than in fixing the country. We pretty much now the order of excellence in the RAT effluent and that isn’t a big problem because to us they are all worthless crap, but not so for the Pubbies. I would imagine that Trump may have a good idea, because that’s how he survives, but we should know too. Does anyone have any ideas? The only basic one I have is length of “service.” As a matter of the first order determination as to who needs to go, we can only look to how long they’ve been there. The longer the term, the more corrupt they are.
Every week we are closer to the real “big club” showing up on the capital lawn.
That’s US, We da peoples.
There’s more to heaven and earth than is dreamt of in the CTH. Sundance got it very wrong a few days ago before Ryancare crashed and burned. First he threw up his hands in despair and now he’s trying to retain his relevance. This isn’t over yet. Trump has more surprises up his sleeve.
I noticed the Conservative TreeHouse posted this commentary on Feb. 24, 2017.
They pretty much nailed it.
What happened this week went according to the “Big Club’s’ plan.
The people who like zerOcare voted for Hitlery. They are losers anyway, so, let them suck it up and pay for their own health care.
JMO, of course; but I think a more accurate name is “Uniparty Corrupt Bastards Club”.
Couldn’t we arrange to deliver a “nuclear accident” to the facility?
