(111 posts)in blazing technicolor - the Repugnican attitude of just plain blanket denial, refusal to even begin to see how her attitude is causing real harm not only to her constituents, but the entire country. She will not ever, ever, ever admit that she is just plain WRONG. She needs her epistemic bubble closure popped, but good. Wish I knew how to do it. I would give a lot to see politicians that actually gave a damn about anything but their own ideological obsessions, yaknow, like the PEOPLE they're supposed to be representing???

(312 posts)good summary, guys. Now hit the showers. We wrote a good summary out there, today.

(28,498 posts)I didn't hear a single idea from the GOP Rep. about how all Americans could have affordable health care. All she did was criticize what the Gov. said but offered no new ideas.
Then I realized this is what GOPers do: bitch and moan, bitch and moan. Repubs will bitch and moan about the rope they're hung with...

(11,541 posts)so they will 'gain' something out of it, like some sort of a majority out of it.
What they don't realize is, each time they get their opportunist faces on any screen - except FAUX snooze - not only they don't get their opportunist-aimed talking points to stick to that wall of theirs, they just lose more support as they're being judged to be more unfit to govern anything else than their own personal bank accounts!
Let them keep on digging deeper each day, I say!

(6,151 posts)God help them if they ever do go that far. The sight of that man in the dock, bearing their abuse with dignity, will do as much to change the social attitude of this country as the Selma march did. For the younger among us who might have avoided history in school, most sociologists and historians will tell you that marked a huge turning point in the Civil Rights Movement. Some flat out racists said point blank that it was the single event that opened their eyes, even if they remained half closed.
Now try even harder than you have before, GOPers, to crucify the man you hate but so many others love like a son or brother. See where it gets you.
No, I wouldn't make book on the GOP firing another shot to their own head (they don't have a heart to worry about) but you know that's their deepest desire, impeachment. Who knows what a besotted crowd like they are will actually try next. I'd bet MY house that Cruz'in Fura Bruisin' would crawl naked over broken glass for the chance.

(1,443 posts)It's been that way for four years.
They've had four years to craft an alternative. What is it? Tort reform?
Ask them what their alternative is and watch the tumbleweeds roll by.

(14,087 posts)and that she needs to stay off the news shows talking junk about it. Her little toady said that "she ran and won on trying to appeal Obamacare, so she is merely doing what she promised. Sorry you don't like it, but she represents the overwhelming majority of North Carolinians who support repeal."
A short argument ensued, but the guy was drunk on his own kool-aid, so I hung up.

(1,648 posts)other states with successful health care insurance connections are not to be believed. These 3 lies just get repeated time and again, as the truth is to be avoided at all costs. Now, what is this Tar Heel saying about those in her state that voted for her? That they can't see her lies or even think?

(8 posts)Kentucky should share their website with the rest of the country. People need to be able to access healthcare.
That said...where is the "freak out"?

(45,455 posts)since they have to link with companies operating within their state.
The federal one is more complicated than people can understand. There are many different databases connected together to give people options for their home states. And this is affecting mostly red states.

come on North Carolina, you are better than AR-15 owner Renee Ellmers. If she behaves like this during debates and campaign speeches, she can be beaten by a Dem.
