Straight Repeal Fail in Senate

[OldLady]

Got it, thanks Bush92 .........
Senators on Tuesday night blocked a wide-ranging proposal by Republicans to repeal much of ObamaCare and replace it with a more restrictive plan.

In Wednesday's vote, Republican Sens. Susan Collins of Maine; Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia; John McCain of Arizona; Rob Portman of Ohio; Lamar Alexander of Tennessee; Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Dean Heller of Nevada voted in opposition.

I could have told you that Susan Collins was a traitor long before this vote. She's part of Hillary Clinton's gang and is a fake Republican.

Yes, it takes a real traitor to break the Tea Party's government shut down a few years back. She actually has some sense. That is a traitor to you?

She is a full on Democrat wearing a Republican badge and a whole lot more. She is a Collins. Does that family name ring a bell, Mary Poppins?

Worry about your own senators. She is taking care of Mainers. That's her job.

The 7 betrayers to the cause of liberty need to be ousted in the primaries by true conservatives.

So you're FOR 22 million w/o health insurance and FOR tax cuts for the rich at the expense of the poor and middle class.
Yup. You're a true deplorable!

Health care is not a right.

But you claim to be pro-life...

Oh the hypocrisy. Its just too much. Excellent point.

45-55 with 7 Quislings from within GOP voting against the measure.

It's not going anywhere, it is doing what it was supposed to do. Single Payer is coming.

Never going to happen.

You're wrong, but I'm comfy with just letting you watch it happen.

I'm a Canadian living in America, and it's never going to happen.

Of course it will.

Hey, we've all got our fantasies.

If the skinny appeal goes through , no ind or employer mandates, who is going to have ins?? Get rid of the employer mandate and make the ind one stick. I don't want to pay for those who chose to go without. Either get on Medicaid, or the ACA and it goes by income.

Nope, the ACA was simply Obama and the Left's vehicle to Single Payer.

Yes well the employer mandate was a Rep thing, and just because its a Dem bill , its the only reason the Pubs do not like it. They can't make it better. Get insurance.

Not unless they alter the interstate commerce laws on insurance sales..

One was probably Angus King, also from Maine. He said he was opposed, anyway. He caucuses with the Dems.

Susan Collins (R) of Maine, too. And of course "Sydney MaCcain" (RINO) of Arizona.

Susan Collins is the biggest quisling on that list. She came out the other day telling our President what an honorable man Mueller was and that President Trump needed to be quiet and stop posting on Twitter. She's got some nerve. The witch.

She is doing a great job too.

Once they are outside the womb they are bothersome little creations...

 

[Reasonable]

Republicans had 7 1/2 years to come up with a viable healthcare plan.
They give a new meaning to the word FAILURE.
Kiss your majority goodbye in 2018.
Let the impeachment hearings begin.

Republican Sens. Susan Collins of Maine; Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia; John McCain of Arizona; Rob Portman of Ohio; Lamar Alexander of Tennessee; Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Dean Heller of Nevada

Their voters should primary them or better yet recall them

She's serving her 4th term in a state that has been blue for ages. We like her. I don't agree with her a lot, being she's a Republican, but when the chips are down, she comes through for US.

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

Those seven names go to the top of the list and put Collins name at the top. Drive them all out of office and keep them out.

Hey, move to Maine, West Virginia, AridZona, Ohio, Tennessee, Alaska and Nevada and live in all of them simultaneously, and you'll have a basis to actually make that case.

Welcome to our country. Please to learn how it works.

I do know how this country works. Many of these "Republicans" rode Trump's cought tail into their seats.

One of the key issues was getting rid of Obamacare which they could have done.

If they refuse to do so they should be kicked out of office immediately. This is what the beauty of the state government's electing Senators. If the senators didn't vote the way they were told they were sent home.

She's a freaking RINO you loon

 

[Mac1958]

All those dozens of repeal votes when they were meaningless were easy. They kept that "base" happy.

Now that they have to govern, it's all different.

She's a democrat through and through and she needs to go come election day. Put her at the top of the do not re-elect list.

 

[Pogo]

Collins doesn't surprise me. Heller is up for reelection next year and Trump lost our state. The other five have no excuses, however. Trump campaigned on repealing ObamaCare and they represent states he won.

What's your point?

Do you actually think any voter who votes for candidate John Smith automatically agrees with ALL of Smith's positions?

Again, Senators are there to represent constituents in their state. Not Presidents, not political parties -- CONSTITUENTS.

You live in Nevada so you have legitimate input to what your Senators do on your behalf. The others from the West Virginias and the Tennessees and the Maines and the Alaskas ---- not so much.

The 7 betrayers to the cause of liberty need to be ousted in the primaries by true conservatives.

Our senator is no "betrayer." She is being mindful of the best outcomes for the people in her state. She also is mindful of the people in the whole country.
The people should come first, not party. The bills suck, and passing a skinny repeal would be a disaster, since I do NOT see a replacement in the offing. If they can't agree on the basics of a plan now, what magic is going to cause that to happen a year from now?

Obacare dies nothing for the people. The whole program was a disaster from the start.

Obamacare insured millions more people. It needs serious work. I don't care if they call it Trumpcare or what, but they need to do something to fix it without taking insurance away from that many people.
Well, go ahead--at least we'd end up with Dems in the majority in Congress again in 2018.

Pull your goddamn head out of your ass, Obamacare is a disaster

Succeeded where Trumpcare failed. Saved millions of lives.
Trumpcare: save zero lives.
Dumbass.

Republicans would pick up seats with straight repeal. Do you have any idea how unpopular Obamacare is with people?

I think you're deluded. But we'll see. The Congress will probably pass something, based on all the political pressure.

Then she would have voted for repeal. The people paying for Obamacare are more important than the people getting something for nothing.

Once you move to Maine you'll have a legitimate basis to say that. OldLady already does live there.
She has a voice in it ---- you don't.
