This Is Not The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight.

This Is Not The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight.
No.  This is the gang that can't even remember where they put the gun.  Apologies to the late Jimmy Breslin for borrowing his book title.

The shitheads in the senate are trying to pass something called "Skinny Repeal," in order to get something passed that they can take to a conference committee with the House.

Back in May, however, the House narrowly passed a stinking turd called the American Health Care Act and one of the big selling points to house members was "don't worry...this won't become law.  The senate will fix it."

Quote:When the House passed their Obamacare repeal-and-replace bill in May, many members openly admitted that they didn’t really care for it. “Is this bill good? No, I don’t like it,” Representative Mario Diaz-Balart said, right after voting for it.

So why even pass the American Health Care Act? Because House Republicans need to say they voted to end the tyranny of Obamacare and that they were promised the Senate would come up with something better anyway.

Now, the republicunts in the senate have come up with a half-assed piece of shit and want to send it back to the house so they can have a conference committee in effect write a new bill again in secret. 

This is like watching two shitty football teams punt the ball back and forth to each other.
