I'm scratching my head here, trying to understand why anyone would think it's a good idea to pass a bill that has the support of 17% -- yes, SEVENTEEN percent -- of the American public.

FC member Dave Brat posted a great article on his Facebook page over the weekend. He noted that his office had received 800 phone calls about Ryan's AHCA bill -- and 700 of them were from people opposed to it.

If Ted Poe wants to play the role of a "political suicide bomber" the way the Democrats did before their historic losses in 1994 and 2010, then I wish him the best of luck.

Most interesting point. Next time the Dems will vote for it and show the waste what 8 years of effort would produce. The GOP will lose in 2018 and thereafter Obamacare will be reintroduced and live on.
