Behind closed doors, Republican lawmakers fret about how to repeal Obamacare

Behind closed doors, Republican lawmakers fret about how to repeal Obamacare
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/...efb65473da

Quote:Recordings of closed sessions at the Republican policy retreat in Philadelphia this week were sent late Thursday to The Washington Post and several other news outlets from an anonymous email address. The remarks of all lawmakers quoted in this story were confirmed by their offices or by the lawmakers themselves.

What is, of course, most interesting is that someone attending the meetings made secret recordings and sent them to the Washington Post.  The WLB will want to know who the traitors are!

This would be entertaining if it wasn't for the misery it's going to heap upon vulnerable people.

They've had either years to figure out what to do if they're ever able to get it repealed, and still don't have a good plan for it. All this obstruction, and attempts to repeal it, were just a publicity stunt for the base, and now that they're in charge they're at a loss.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

Not that the republicunts care what the voters think.....

https://poll.qu.edu/national/release-det...aseID=2421



Quote:A total of 96 percent of American voters, including 91 percent of Republicans, say it is "very important" or "somewhat important" that health insurance be affordable for all Americans.

And,

Quote:American voters agree 70 - 26 percent with the U.S. Supreme Court Roe v. Wade decision.

Obviously, these are not True 'Murricans!

Oh, they are, they just mean something completely different than what was implied.

"Slash and burn" is more accurate. Cmon this what the GOP has been clamoring for - a chance to neuter and gut the federal government, and that's precisely what they'll do.

Their only problem is that the Donald wants to keep his base happy. Real republicans would be quite happy to just cut out those who don't deserve medical care by virtue of being too poor to afford it.
