All of these people are One World Government supporters. They support what the commie homodims support. Now you can see why the Republic is doomed. We vote and elect these so called republicans, hoping to stop the tide of the commies and OWG. How can you when the ONLY mob you can vote for are THESE commies. The Republic has no chance. The ONLY way out of this mess is in the hands of Almighty God. If you don’t believe it, I challenge you to pick up a Bible and read it. The ANSWERS are there. I put my faith there years ago. Not in government, not in man, and especially in the republican party. Seek Him while you can.

Trump needs to sign an executive order tonight requiring all federal government employees to be placed on Obamacare health plans.

Presto! It will be gone in one week.

(Repeal Dead)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Repeal was never in the mix.
The GOP wants to keep 80% of Obamacare.

Neither the Republicans nor the Democrats care about We The People. They only care about those lining their pockets.

Let ObamaCare crash and burn, and then Trump can step up to the microphone and push a solid plan directly to the people.

Well, since there are not 50 Republican votes to cut one thin dime from Medicaid, I would say the chances of repeal are - slim.

These idiots had 7 years to come up with something. They didn’t think Trump was going to win, so they were prepared to sit there for another 4 years and whine that if they only had a GOP President they would repeal Obamacare. Well, they got one, and they won’t.

I don’t particularly care myself. If the liberals don’t see Obamacare crashing, they will try to convince the people evil, sinister Drumpf got rid of something splendid and wonderful. Let it fail and move on then.

I don't blame Moran and Lee.

Now let's come up with the straight repeal vote that was done ad infinitum during the Obama years. Let's get on the record now to see who was merely posturing during those years.

I declare as a Freeper and Patriot and Trump supporter (likely redundant), the U.S. Senate and House are enemies of We the people.

You traitors have crossed the Rubicon and made it clear you love your caviar and cocktails and hate us.

We despise you and you still work for us.

You are fired.

I think straight out repeal requires 60 senators to approve.

GOP Sens. Jerry Moran (Kansas) and Mike Lee (Utah) announced on Monday night they will not support taking up a bill repealing and replacing ObamaCare, effectively blocking the legislation.

It is time for the Republican Party to simply repeal Obamacare as they promised many, many times.

It is too difficult for the Republican voters to understand why the REPUBLICANS now refuse to pass a simple repeal with a two year sunset clause.

The voters of this country want Obamacare to be repealed. The Republican party is headed for the trashcan if they cannot keep their promise to repeal that awful, awful law.

The Damn Republicans have had every chance to come up with a great bill and keep failing. Maybe if they kept the Medical, Insurance, and Pharma lobbies out of it they could come up with something. Cost is the thing and unless we do something then we all suffer down the road.

Illegitimate dogs, and that is what I have to say good about this. It is about not draining the swamp and K Street Money.

Anyone read Avik Roy here? or heard Betsy McCaughley on Lou Dobbs last Week? Avik spilled the beans, it made Medicaid means tested via the angled "ladder" to overcome the barrier the was in the prior version and frankly combine that with the Exec-Orders and $ for Direct Primary Care trials in the new bill ( again via Avik Roy ), it had IMHO the ability to transform Medicaid ( and other programs ) to potential free market options at the State Level which would forever change things for all of us for the better. Betsy said while it has the tax added via the Senate it still got rid of the mandate and employer mandate. You take your victories where you can and go on. These guys gave up the fight... It is time to get rid of the 17th and or go back to an old fashion Filibuster. Not to mention it is time to endorse Matt Bevin ( President Trump if you are listening ) because Mitch didn't get it done.

Worse I get that The economy can't rebound with the milstone of Obamacare around our necks, it was the foundation of the Fundamental Restoration of this country and they kneecapped it, and by extension the Trump Adminstration. For what? So they can run Jeb! or his Mini-Me Rubio in 2020? Seriously they all need to go play shuffleboard. They can't surrender the power, shame on them all...

“How ‘bout a straight repeal?”

That is just a bit too logical. Our Congressional leaders have to sniff around to uncover some hidden wisdom to justify not doing the logical thing. Anybody can do the logical thing, so it makes them uncomfortable, replaceable.

I am not surprised. Many of the R’s are RINOs because many of the US voters are RINOs or liberals. The voters will get what they deserve - ObamaCare until it dies and morphs into single payer.
