Senators went into a recess skeptical over whether they could agree to legislation repealing and replacing ObamaCare. They will return on Monday more doubtful than ever. Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.), one of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) most loyal allies, said Thursday that it’s “unlikely” the GOP will get a healthcare deal. “I don’t see a comprehensive healthcare plan this year,” he told a local news station. Senate Republicans hoped to have a draft bill this week, but it now looks like there will at best be an outline.

The big news for the GOP majority on Capitol Hill last week came as a tweet — and it was not from President Trump. Matt Drudge, the proprietor of The Drudge Report, the conservative website which played a leading role in the rise of the new president, raised eyebrows with this note: “Republican Party should be sued for fraud. No discussion of tax cuts now. Just lots of crazy. Back to basics, guys!”

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: This is Maureen in Orlando, I'm glad you waited. Welcome to the EIB Network. Hello. CALLER: Gosh, Rush, I'm so excited to speak to you on this exciting day. RUSH: Thank you. CALLER: Let me just preface, yesterday was the first time I stood in front of my television and cheered, when Newt was speaking, since Sarah Palin gave her acceptance speech. It was fabulous. RUSH: Yeah, I remember that myself. CALLER: Yeah. You know what, I just want to say, I've been getting called all morning from people, my friends, which, I'm just a stay-at-home mom...

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: I want to go back to debate sound bites. We've only gotten through six of these, and they've been very powerful. Mike, grab the montage which is audio sound bite number two, 'cause that sets it all up. I asked Cookie to do a montage of Newt's greatest lines with the applause left in from last night's debates and then play the full sound bite from which sample comes from. GINGRICH: Only the elites despise earning money. AUDIENCE: (cheers and applause) GINGRICH: I know among the politically correct you're not supposed to use facts that are uncomfortable....

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: From the debate last night, here's Frank Luntz. This is with Hannity after the debate last night. LUNTZ: I've never seen it in a debate, a standing ovation in the middle of a debate. Remember, there's only five candidates up there so you would assume that only 20% would award them their support. Newt Gingrich got a standing ovation, and he did so fighting with your own Juan Williams over the whole welfare issue. RUSH: Yeah, but Newt did something last night that he's not done before. Juan Williams asked the question, and Newt just answered it...

*snip* FIRST, our viable alternative strategy is to force Senate Democrats to pass a bill. Currently, the very willingness of Republicans to do the short-terms absolves both Senate Democrats and the President of any responsibility. The House acted. It passed H.R. 1. The Senate has not. Harry Reid has essentially thrown up his hands and said that he can’t pass anything (notwithstanding the fact that he claims to run the Senate). We all know that he can pass something. Until the Senate passes legislation, real Congressional negotiations cannot begin. Not unlike their Wisconsin state colleagues, Democrats must participate to have...

All 42 Senate Republicans have signed on to a letter expressing the caucus’s intentions to block any legislation until the expiration of current tax rates is addressed. Full letter: Dear Leader Reid, The nation’s unemployment level, stuck near 10 percent, is unacceptable to Americans. Senate Republicans have been urging Congress to make private-sector job creation a priority all year. President Obama in his first speech after the November election said “we owe” it to the American people to “focus on those issues that affect their jobs.” He went on to say that Americans “want jobs to come back faster.” Our...

Rush Limbaugh Vents on Darrell Issa ~~~~~~~~ Transcript ### RUSH: Congressman Darrell Issa from California. Congressman, welcome to the EIB Network, sir. ISSA: Rush, thanks for the opportunity to clarify what a half hour of an interview turns into when it turns into one bullet line by an author. RUSH: Let me tell you what it says. The whole story is about you guys wanting to shut down government and how that won't work. It's all about how Republicans really, in private, realize they're going to have to compromise with Obama and you get quoted: "It's pretty clear the American...

Hope for positive change rose yesterday when according to one estimate, as many as two million people marched on Washington DC; even as Barack Obama hid from them in Minnesota. It was one of the highlights of hundreds of events around the country with the participation of millions of ordinary citizens who know that government has gone terribly wrong. An epic political event; of, by, but as it turned out not so much for The People. ...

Washington, Aug 3 - House Republicans will be back on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives again Monday to continue the unprecedented protest that began last Friday, when dozens of Republicans joined hundreds of American citizens on the House floor to protest Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) decision to send Congress home for the rest of the summer without a vote on legislation to lower gas prices and move America toward energy independence. In an urgent memo sent to GOP Members and staff Saturday (“A Call to Action on American Energy”), Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) and Whip Roy...

If your son hadn’t studied quite as hard as he should have for a history test, would you hope that he flunked badly in order to, “teach him a lesson?†If you goofed off at work a few times, do you think it would make sense for your employer to fire you and hire someone who spends all day sleeping in your place? If your favorite football team lost a few games to mediocre opponents during the season, would you root for them to lose the Super Bowl in hopes that they would be better the next year? The answer...

Democrats said U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman (news, bio, voting record)'s defeat in a party vote underscored anger over the Iraq war but the Bush administration countered that it exposed the party's weakness on national security. The White House weighed in on Wednesday with unusual vigor on a Democratic primary after Lieberman, a three-term senator and vice presidential nominee in 2000, was brought down by voter anger for his support of the war and what his challenger called excessive coziness with President George W. Bush. Winner Ned Lamont had cast Tuesday's race with Lieberman for the Democratic Senate nomination as a...

NEW YORK -- Everybody knows that President Bush and the Republican Congress have chopped poverty spending to finance massive tax cuts for their wealthy friends. “The Republican House just voted to slash health care for struggling families, cut college loans for middle-class kids, and take food off the tables of poor children,” the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees complained in TV ads during budget votes last December. As Rep. Charles Rangel (D.- N.Y.) moaned in the Washington Post, “I don’t know what the poor, the elderly, the disabled, or our foster children have done to Republicans to...
