Do people truly understand the lack of humanity within the current Republicans in Congress?

their whole game here is to take away health insurance from millions of people to pay for a tax cut for a small number of rich people.

so the score reflects that, duh.

did anyone really think they'd score it any other way?

or are we supposed to think people might have said, "hey, if the cbo says only 13 million will lose their health insurance, that's a number i can live with. the 13 million might not be able to live with it, but i can!"

65 to 70 percent will know the truth.
Even some of "them" will know who's fault it is.
What party wrote this bill?
What party is selling this?
Who is doing the talking in favor of this?
Yes..20 percent will buy any lies of republicans.
But, a lot won't. ..because this bill is ugly, awful crap.
It hurts more than anything...Six months from now...

15,000,000 will lose their health insurance.....so..
Hospitals are against it,
Doctors are against it.
After some discussion,
Most people in this country will...
...........be against this..
because this bill will kill.!!!!
