These are two individuals who have undoubtedly been told all their lives that they could not do this or that because of who they were.

There's a lesson in this.

4. I find it hilarious the GOP was saying how they wanted to do healthcare for the people the proper

way, and that's why we should scrap this bill and start from scratch with a bipartisan bill.

Uh... you guys controlled everything from 2001 through 2006.

What prevented you from totally overhauling health care for the benefit of the people?

All we got out of you twerps was Medicare Part D. Whoop dee doo!
