You’re welcome. The link I listed, in my earlier post - to the full text of Sen Cruz’ Bill - was not a working link. This one should work....
http://www.cruz.senate.gov/files/documents/Bills/20150202_Obamacare_Repeal_Act.pdf
I agree with you about the “suspicious names” of some of the co-sponsors...>cough< Ayotte...McConnell....Cornyn...>cough<.
So I guess Ted Cruz is the only republican who can see that most americans can’t afford to pay for Obamacare.
I do like his idea to just keep at it. At least someone is keeping this on the front burner....in spite of all of the daily distractions.”
Thats right ,...if we dont head towards that light at the end if the tunnel we shall never get near it!
It brings the liars out in the open.
I want to thank you for being honest about your governor. Most of us in TX try to warn off FReepers from Perry and we’re considered traitors or spoil-sports, when we’re just trying to educate non-Texans what they might expect if Perry was their POTUS. Like you do. Thanks again, granny.
GO Ted Cruz!
From his Senate website....
The Obamacare Repeal Act fully repeals Obamacare effective 180 days after its enactment, and provides Congress and the states the intervening six months to develop and vote on patient-oriented health care reform that will incrementally unravel Obamacare’s structural damage to our health care system and economy.
Congress must demonstrate its commitment to reducing healthcare costs and empowering American families with better innovations that save and improve lives. To begin accomplishing this goal, Sen. Cruz plans to introduce additional pieces of legislation, starting with measures to allow American families to shop around the country for insurance and to reform the Food and Drug Administration to more efficiently deliver greater life-saving medical therapies for all Americans.

I havent seen this much common sense emerging form Washington in Many Many Moons
THIS is unexpectedly impressive to say the least!
What you describe is called retainer fee medicine and it is truly the right solution to healthcare. It is also the way health care was arranged prior to WWII when wage freezes distorted the labor markets and led to Employer Sponsored Health Insurance.
Thank you. That sour grapes response seems to be common among Cruz supporters, but I didn’t know if that included you.
If you are on twitter, you can retweet and/or favorite Sen Cruz’ announcement tweet, here:

Wow, totally awesome and it already has 44 sponsors. Where’s the rest of the GOP?
Make Obama veto it. Make the Dems vote against it. Bury this Party of Ruin into the next century.
Foolish.
” 44 Republicans co-sponsoring it, where’s the rest of them?”
Do we have votes for this? It would be so cool to see the Republicans kick so skinny obama butt for a change.
When I was born in 64 the cost of my hospital birth was about $85. Right around 2 weeks pay for my dad who was a garbageman at the time.
Texans try to warn you off Perry - who you might know nothing of - and we get beat up.
When we try to warn you onTO Ted Cruz, we get beat up.
I frankly don’t care about Walker supporters anymore, they demonstrate illiteracy as to our nations imminent demise if Cruz doesn’t break all these things zero has erected.
Put another way, Don’t want no Walker supporters in my foxhole.
Great news- should inspire all constitutional conservatives. Proves a truth- The Gop-e elite has neither loyalty or principle– it is wholly malleable- it’s sole interest is to maintain its power. Here then, we see it is not committed to inexorable socialism, so long as it can be convinced that its continued power resides instead in free markets and the constitution.
Senator Cruz has just demonstrated that the statist herd can be re-directed— that’s seismic. There is hope.
And is Rep Mia Love in with the 44......?
Mia Love who has nice things written on her web site but promptly voted for the weeper as speaker...
Litmus test Redux....
Mia’s house.
