Pathological RT @huffingtonpost GOP Senator: Sacrifice Obamacare to avoid sequester


To avoid a March 1 sequester, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) suggested on Fox News Sunday that Congress save money by cutting the Affordable Care Act instead.

"Here's my belief: Let's take Obamacare and put it on the table," he said. "People are leaving the private sector because their companies can't afford to offer Obamacare. If you want to look at ways to find $1.2 trillion in savings over the next decade, let's look at Obamacare. Let's don't destroy the military and just cut blindly across the board."

. . .we should have cut these lawmakers' publicly-funded healthcare completely off long time ago (at least until they guarantee ours). What an elitist pig to suggest that our bloated military is more in need of funding than our citizens' health care needs.
