Replace it with what John? Doubt you have any ideas.
F U J M!
You’re part of the problem.
[[McCain said, Its clear that Obamacare is unraveling, and at a rapid rate. Were going to have to go back to square one. Were going to have to go back and not only repeal, but replace and make health care available to every American.]]
The same “we” who did nothing to stop Obama .
I really hope the people of Arizona are not reelecting this looser.
Oh Yes! The old coot is suddenly conservative again. I wonder why.
Hey McLame, F*** OFF!!! We want Obamacare REPEALED, not REPLACED with yet another scheme that hides taxes as high health care premiums and then subsidizes illegal aliens and other dirtbags on our dime!!!
ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess it needs more funding ... that’s McCain’s usual response.
You’ve been in office for decades, McLame... what did you do to stop it?
Oh wait... I remember...
You called the man who made the MOST effort to try to stop funding it a “whacko-bird”
STFU John.....
McCain to crowd: ‘Don’t be scared’ of Obama presidency
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/10/11/mccain-to-crowd-dont-be-scared-of-obama-presidency/
Arizonans, please rid us of this disgusting excuse for a human being in the U. S. Senate.
To the RINO McCain - retire NOW.
Just repeal. We can worry about “replace” after a few years of analysis.
Gee if there was only something Congress could do to stop Obama
==================================================
BACKSTORY As far back as 2008, at the presidential debate in Nashville, Democrat candidate Obama advanced his signature plan that was ultimately enacted (by an historic straight Democrat party-line vote) into the "Affordable Care Act:"
QUOTING OBAMA: "No. 1, let me just repeat, if youve got a health care plan that you like, you can keep it. All Im going to do is help you to lower the premiums on it. Youll still have choice of doctor.
Repeated over and over by every loyal Democrat---- conning Americans into believing they'd be saving $2500.00 on healthcare costs.

“Were going to have to go back and not only repeal, but replace...”
Replace it with nothing, John. Get fedzilla out of the health care business altogether, and let the free market handle it. You guys screw up everything you touch.
Not nearly fast enough!.................
Obamacare is just a complicated, massive expansion of medicaid, with a serious kick-back to crony-capitalist insurance companies.
These whores are now finding out that Obama, Pelosi and Reid snookered them with, by having them agree to take the high-risk pools, with the promise that young people would be forced to buy insurance.
On the revenue side, politically connected unions and large companies have been able to push back the mandates, cadillac insurance taxes and medical equipment taxes, in typical Washington fashion.
It seems the only people who pay the cost (once again) are the middle class and productive elements of society.
You funded it, bub.
Instead, the news is "he doesn't trust intelligence information coming from those currently in charge" Explain, WHY you don't trust the information. There are good examples out there....like the scrubbing of reports Obama got on ISIS.
Maybe mc should have an an emergency meeting with obama?
It has to unravel before they can replace it with single payer.
