OUTLOOK LOOKING BLEAK FOR GOP ON 'OBAMACARE' REPEAL BILL
ap ^ | 3/24/17 | BY ALAN FRAM AND RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Republicans' capstone health care overhaul seemed in dire trouble Friday as Speaker Paul Ryan weighed strategy at the White House with President Donald Trump. GOP lawmakers and aides said they lacked the votes to succeed in the House, just hours before a do-or-die showdown demanded by Trump.

GOP leaders pushed toward a climactic House roll call, but their promise to stage the vote increasingly looked like a losing gamble for the new president and his GOP allies in Congress.

I love Trump.

I loathe, despise, spit upon, take bodacious dumps upon, tar, feather, burn, stab, shoot, eviscerate, and otherwise totally disrespect the fetid pile to excrement that is the Republican party.

The entire party would have to fight for the single testicle that apparently is shared between them. Heck, it appears that the female members have much more testosterone than do wimpy little turds like Ryan, and our two so-called leaders of the house and senate.

A pox on them.

They will be totally responsible for the upcoming civil war.

This is so wonderful. Why would we replace socialism with socialism. Let obamacare collapse and the permit FREE MARKET INSURANCE!! with the safety net of the ER!!!
I say this with not any ability to see the Republican bill!! I haven’t seen such obfuscation since obamacare itself!! I am deeply disapponted in Trump for falling for Rinocare which was just rank socialism!! Why should I pay a premium that has to be large enough so that if some poor soul shows up today with terminal cancer an $1 million in future medical expenses but we take him ? That is not fair to my family that I am trying to feed!!

it will be now though by not repealing Obamacare. it will forever be a right. As it gets worse, we’ll be forced to dump more and more money into it.

What makes u think RINO’s and RAT’s are going to allow Obamacare
to collapse?

They will join forces and VOTE to continue funding Obamacare.
Whatever amount of funds it needs.

Brace yourself. It’s coming.

I’m curious about opinions out there on the provision to buy policies across state lines...Ryan left it out and there is only the “it will be in stage 3” of the bill...

Rush stumbled onto this across state lines thing 3-24-17 today about 1:15 pm EST, but doesn’t realize what it means...

When we can buy across state lines, supply and demand take over as the check and balance kicks in, and state employee commissioners are rendered useless and should be laid off...riffed.

So, Ryan and McConnell left that out...do you think they want to make state employee unions upset?

Has Nunes caught both of them lying?

Me thinks so.

If that happens, they will lose the senate majority next year, and they will deserve to lose it.
They had the ball in their hands, and they purposely dropped it like a hot potato. Not what a leader does at all.
Pelosi is despicable, but she does know how to lead, how to form a consensus, and is not afraid to do it.
