GOP Concedes, Obamacare Is Here To Stay…

Via AP:

Senate Republicans, short of votes, abandoned their latest and possibly final attempt to kill the health care law Tuesday, just ahead of a critical end-of-the-week deadline.

The repeal-and-replace bill’s authors promised to try again at a later date, while President Donald Trump railed against “certain so-called Republicans” who opposed the GOP effort. But for now, Trump and fellow Republicans who vowed for seven years to abolish President Barack Obama’s law will leave it standing and turn their attention to overhauling the nation’s tax code instead.

The GOP’s predicament was summed up bluntly by Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, a lead author of the legislation: “Through events that are under our control and not under our control, we don’t have the votes.”

“Am I disappointed? Absolutely,” he said after a GOP lunch attended by Vice President Mike Pence.

Standing alongside Cassidy, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said: “We haven’t given up on changing the American health care system. We are not going to be able to do that this week, but it still lies ahead of us.”

“We do think it’s time to turn to our twin priority, reforming the tax code,” McConnell said.

So we're stuck with Obamacare which is falling apart and RINO's who are falling apart. I guess both will have to be repealed and replaced later. Nothing but spineless sacks of shit. This pisses me off so much, I am going to say some things I wouldn't normally say. Clean the house, run them out, especially the two headed snake McConnell and Ryan. F**k them all, spineless cowards. Every damn republican ran on repeal. Filthy lying assholes. I'm going to say something I've never said before, McCain can't die soon enough and I hope he takes those two bitches, Collins and Murkowski with him. Forgive me. It was so easy to cry 'We're going to repeal Obamacare' when Obama was potus. Not so easy now, you liars! I'm surprised there isn't any democrats having massive heart attacks laughing so hard at the stupidity and totally uselessness of the RINOS.

So now the congress critters are going to quit pretending to repeal Obamacare and start pretending to cut taxes. Now they can all retire to their safe spaces and suck their thumbs, safe in the knowledge that they themselves have the best health care our taxes can buy.
