(10,113 posts)These aholes will not stop, they will keep this up until they can kick 20 million people off insurance and get the tax cuts for their masters. I've been waiting up tonight for this. How can you wake up in the morning and look yourself in the mirror and say to yourself, today I am going to kick 20 million people off insurance of fuck millions more over?
Peace

(10,419 posts)for finally becoming the maverick he always claimed to be.
McTurtle ought to have as much class and conscience as McCain showed tonight.
(He won't. He's whining on the Senate floor right now.)

(21,845 posts)The Republicans skated away from their pledge because a lone loose cannon maverick bucked his Washington Elite Party Leaders.
If this were a movie, it would star Jimmy Stewart.
Nobody (at least in the Senate) wanted this turd to float. It will be Republican House members who suffer at ballot box.

(18,646 posts)Then once they get in control again they can very quickly implement some changes that will fix the problems.
They need to show the country that they are able to govern while Republicans spin in circles.

(49,069 posts)The meme lays the groundwork for their strategy: They hope their sabotage destroys Obamacare and then they will claim it was fundamentally flawed.
Republican Sen. Rubio snuck a tiny provision into a thousand page bill. That provision blocks certain insurance markets and sabotages Obamacare.
Expect a lot more of that.

(18,646 posts)The main one probably being the cost of the insurance.
Prices are going up and it's not all Republican sabotage doing it.
Something needs to be done to stabilize the market.

But, you know, Benghazi! Her emails! Kenya!
