can't pass this piece of shit the way it is eh?

I'm only hoping he can't find a balance between the "moderates" and the tea baggers.

They don't have the votes

But we still need to sustain and build the opposition, this fight ain't over yet

They do NOT want to hear from the average voters - they only want to listen to the guys with fat checkbooks that they can make fatter.

They won't even go back to their states, and, when pressed on it, "explain" that they couldn't recall what the country's birthday was until it was too late.

because people are saying mean things about Republican policies at them! Oh, the humanity! Why can't those contemptible peasants just be content to be led by the Elected? After all, the shepherds care for their flocks to make them easier to fleece. Those horrid little people in their ugly Wal Mart clothes should know their places and bend over quietly!

Sarcasm thingie

Oh wait, the bill sucks...need more time to twist some arms

And they will probably do that.

As a note, the 4 RW loon Senators (Johnson, Lee, Paul, Cruz) were ALL elected in 2010 (or the election after in 2012) in the "repeal Obamacare" wave. To them, "repeal" is their "mandate" and is what got them elected.

to allow Collins and Heller to vote "no" and everyone else lock steps with Pence to break the tie. Meaning pressure on Portman and Murkowski would be paramount to not let that happen (but it seems a bit doubtful at this point).

Don't be sorry.

because, it explained that everything is more complicated than I know.
Which I knew..

I just figured they would try to make it worse to rope in more right wing dung eaters.

who are in states that expanded Medicaid (like WV, where Capito is a wavering "no" and AK, where Murkowski is a wavering "no&quot , and states where the Senators are being pressured by their GOP governors to vote no like OH (where GOPer Portman is wavering).

And btw my typo.. should have been "It is not HARD to be over my head."

You probably figured that out.

Did get the context of your post.

Six arrested in Capito’s office after day of protesting health care bill

Jake Zuckerman , Staff Writer

Authorities detained six protesters Monday who refused to leave Sen. Shelley Moore Capito’s Charleston office without an assurance that she will oppose the U.S. Senate’s rewrite of the American Health Care Act.

Kayla Parker, Joe Solomon, Terry Pickett, Jim Lewis, Bill Price and Paul Dalzell were taken out of the office complex in handcuffs at roughly 5:30 p.m. All six said they were prepared and willing to be arrested from the onset of the protest.

“I came here today to say to Shelley Moore Capito that we will not leave here until she votes no on this health care bill or we are taken out by arrest,” Price said. “At that, it’s almost 5 o’clock, and we are determined.”

The arrests came amid a flurry of citizen activism with related protests occurring outside Capito’s office starting just after noon. Roughly 75 people rallied outside the building, urging the West Virginia Republican to vote against the Better Care Reconciliation Act of 2017, the formal title of the Senate’s rewrite of the House’s AHCA.

while they are in their home districts over the break. Especially true if you are in a red state with GOP senators. These hypocrites will in many instances be using the 4th of July to strut their phony "patriotism." Don't let the opportunities for demonstrating against the AHCA at any of their public appearances slide by. The life you save by defeating this immoral mess may be your own, or that if your dearest loved one.

I can't wait to see them go home and face their constituents. I hope they come out by the thousands to protest.

And i thought the CBO score was wrong or overvalued or something, something.

Cowards!

to try to get the votes.

The down side is: The reason they are short votes is in part due to it not being strict or cruel enough. Costing too much. Too much like Obamacare.

While at the same time the CBO score is bad. How they are going to jive the two sides of that coin, I don't know.

that they lose more votes. Yeah, sad to know some think it is not cruel enough!

I'm new to the state, so need to look up the other one. Both of 'em dark red.

Sorry they are both dark red.

We can't stop with the pressure, though. Keep those phone calls and faxes coming!

exactly wanted to take their and their family's healthcare away.

Now they've only prolonged our pain yet kept hidden those elitists, hoping that Americans will lose the energy of protesting them at their townhalls and wherever else they find themselves among the 'common' people.

Nicey-poo but to the point? Or angry? Or "the citizens of the state will be shopping for a new Senator when you're up for re-election, if you vote for this bill."

Over the break, these repub senators need to be pressured big time.

That has to be a first.

Prob thinks he can twist CBO arms and skew the results

What's likely is a bill that says "give us all your money" and incomes and you can
have health care. Can't afford it? Get a job.

Chief Justice Roberts enabled this. He told us Obamacare was a tax. That gave GOP
Senators ideas of how to tax poorer Americans more. Cut taxes on the rich, raise them
on the poor, and take away poor healthcare while you're at it.

The House Bill was dead...TWICE! Yet, it came back like an air crash victim on the Walking Dead.

Be vigilant, and trust these fucks about as far as you can throw them!

I was looking forward to it being defeated.

TurtleAhole just needs more time to put together off shore pay off packages for the holdout Senators .... Just wait and see. He's very good at this kind of thing. He's been doing this for years.

He was trying to rush this shit sandwich through to avoid Senators having to face their constituents at the July 4 break. I wonder how many of them will simply not go home.

they may not be able to shut off hearings and debate due to an artificial deadline.

fucking snapping turtle!

For 400 of the richest families in the U.S.


Peace
