McConnell Pulls The Bill!

McConnell Pulls The Bill!
In addition to his dick.

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-41402164

Quote:Republican push to repeal Obamacare collapses

Quote:A Republican plan to replace Obamacare will not be voted on this week, effectively signalling its collapse.
The party leadership said the bill would not come to the Senate floor after a third "no" vote emerged.
Susan Collins said she could not back the "deeply flawed" bill, despite a call from President Donald Trump and promises of money for her state.
It was a major blow for the president and Republican leadership, who have made Obamacare's repeal a top priority.

But of course, the republicunts would not be republicunts if they weren't always threatening to wreak more damage to the country.


Quote:They now turn their attention to tax reform.

Watch them forget all about their previous objections to "deficits."

Lying fucks.

Yeah, those amendments funneling extra money to those states who's Senators weren't on board were definitely going to be challenged, and I think would likely be found unconstitutional anyhow. There's precedent for that, but I forget which clause/amendment the precedent hinged on.

Lying fucks.

They only seem to care about deficits when they're not expanding the military or cutting taxes for the ultra rich.

Personally I think the panic is to avoid the public from realizing the obvious, that paying the majority of our health care bills to middlemen as insurance profit is stupid... Single payer is the only sensible compassionate path.
Find the cure for Fundementia!

They only care when there is a democrat in the white house. 

They must have truly been shocked when Collins couldn't be bribed.  Very unrepublicunt of her.

Meh. Passing tax cuts is the only thing these cocksuckers are good for anyway. Time for more of that trickle-down magic to not work again.

I forget the clause as well, which is annoying because there was an article about it the other day. Susan Collins made another great point in her press release:

Quote:...if Senators can adjust a funding formula over a weekend to help a single state, they could just as easily adjust that formula in the future to hurt that state. This is simply not the way that we should be approaching an important and complex issue that must be handled thoughtfully and fairly for all Americans.

They're not even getting bitch slapped.

They just keep getting their dicks caught in the zipper. 'Cause who knew it was this complicated?

Have you ever seen a sadder group of old white fucks?

They did so want to strip health care from millions of poor and middle class people.

Whatever metaphor you like, that works too. Either way those clowns keep making themselves look like Mo, Larry and Curly.
