    With a scheduled appointment with God in the next year? I don't think so.
    God approves of teabagging McConnell.

    Congratulations to the liberals here and McCain - he is such an attention w***e - guess he wants to go out with a big bang. Trump and Republicans should not lift a finger to help ACA - let it proceed as it was written including the Cadillac tax - so that all the unions will scream for the end of it - unfortunately, iirc, they delayed it. Time to move on to tax reform.

    Repealing Obamacare was a prerequisite to tax reform.

    Yes. "it was the right thing to do" = attention w***e

    I doubt after being given a diagnosis of aggressive brain cancer makes you really want more attention.

    More likely:

    It makes you think a lot harder about doing the right thing and f*** the consequences.

    Obamacare should be fixed, not repealed. Republicans sow what they reaped, in terms of building up a Frankenstein monster, and that monster has now turned on them.

    Does it bother you to watch an old cancerous man take his dong out, put it in your leader's mouth, then swirl it around?

    It's the Democrats who built that monster, the "Affordable" Care Act, that will contribute to bankrupting us if this Medicaid expansion of able-bodied individuals is allowed to continue. I guess since he has his brain tumor he doesn't care that the people in his state had the highest increase in premiums in the country. And you still haven't answered my question about who the responsible adults are that clean up the messes the Republicans leave behind.

    Trump Supporters Furious That They Still Have Health Care

    WASHINGTON —With a fury that could spell political trouble for Republicans in the midterm elections, Trump voters across the country on Friday expressed their outrage and anger that they still have health coverage.

    “I went to bed Thursday night and slept like a baby,

    assuming that when I woke up I would have zero health insurance,” Carol Foyler, a Trump voter, said.

    “Instead, this nightmare.”

    Harland Dorrinson, who voted for Trump “because he promised that he would take my health care away from me on Day 1,” said that

    he was “very upset” that he will still receive that benefit.


    “I woke up this morning, and my family and I could still see a doctor,” he said. “This is a betrayal.”


    Many Trump supporters said that congressional Republicans “gave up too soon” in their efforts to deprive ordinary Americans like them of their health care.


    “They should not take August off,”

    Calvin Denoit, a Trump supporter, said.

    “They should stay in Washington and keep working until I totally lose my coverage.”


    For Trump voters like Benoit, the abject disappointment of continuing to have health care raises fears about which other campaign promises might soon be broken.


    “Now I don’t know what to believe,” he said. “Are we still going to get to pay billions of dollars in taxes for that wall?

    A Top Republican Congressman Just Called For Senator Mitch McConnell’s Resignation

    Congressman Mo Brooks (R-AL) isn’t taking the failure of his Senate colleaguesto pass his party’s long-promised “repeal and replace” legislation for ObamaCare lightly. He’s naming names and calling for heads to roll, beginning with head of the Senate Majority Leader.

    “If they’re gonna quit, well then by golly, maybe they ought to start at the top with Mitch McConnell leaving his position and letting somebody new, somebody bold, somebody conservative take the reins,”

    Which part did you missed in which none of them actually wanted this piece of bill to become law?

    They were all counting on Paul Ryan to hold a consference and somehow deciding not to vote on it.

    You owe those "3 republicans" thanks for keeping your healthcare today.

    I don't owe them anything. My healthcare is secure regardless of whether they voted for it or not. Instead, it's the millions of YOUNG people who are being forced to buy EXPENSIVE health insurance or pay a penalty who have got the raw end of the deal. At a time in their lives when they should be paying off college debt, saving for a house or investing for the future, they are instead forced to pay more than they should to offset health insurance for the sick and elderly.

    That's what health insurance is.

    They should be paying according to their risk like other insurances. Do I as a middle-aged woman who hasn't had a ticket in decades pay the same auto insurance rate as a male, teenager with lots of tickets - no. On the other hand, someone my age is only paying 3 times what a young person does when an older person's risk is actuarially supposed to be 5 times a young person. ACA has made it more burdensome on young people than it should. This is discounting that the 10 essential benefits loads up on things a young person just doesn't need.

    I guess that most of you here are young - how does it feel that at every angle you are being made to pay for the old folks? That with college debt, the outrageous prices of homes, stagnant wages and yes, burdensome, health insurance at a time when it should be dirt cheap is holding you back, not giving you a shot at the American dream which so many before you have achieved while paying for the seniors' SS, Medicare, subsidizing older people's health insurance and knowing that there will be little left for you when it's your turn. You don't need me to tell you that SS, Medicare and now Medicaid to able-bodied individuals is unsustainable - just do the math.

    Your whining about how we can't afford the safety net is re ed since your GOP will just cut taxes on the rich thus erasing all the savings that would have come from cutting these programs.

    McConnell let it come up for a vote so he could be done with it for a while. The senate can only do one reconciliation bill per fiscal year on each of spending, taxes, and the debt ceiling, and by letting that vote happen when he knew he didn't have McCain's vote he used up the spending bill. Now they can't try another ACA repeal until the new fiscal year starting October 1st. So yeah, McConnell is absolutely to blame if you wanted the GOP to keep pushing this stupid repeal.

    take it up with the providers. theyre the ones who offer the packages you select from, not the aca. most of them offer low risk plans at substantially lower cost, but if you dont think theyre low enough, thats on them.
