McCain Surrenders on Behalf of Opposition to ObamaCare
http://www.rightwingnews.com ^ | september 27, 2013 | Dave Blount

Posted on 09/28/2013 9:08:57 AM PDT by lowbridge

Alleged Republican John McCain responded to Ted Cruz’s heroic but failed attempt to stop ObamaCare by speaking apparently at the behest of Democrat Majority Leader Harry Reid. Tune in at around 4:20 in the video below and hear this:

“I’d remind my colleagues that in the 2012 election, ObamaCare … was a subject that was a major issue in the campaign. … Well, the People spoke… and they reelected the president of the United States. Now that doesn’t mean we give up our efforts to try to replace and repair ObamaCare. But it does mean that elections have consequences, and those elections were clear … a majority of the American people supported the president of the United States… I think all of us should respect the outcome of elections, which reflects the will of the People.”

And I believe it was just out of spite, because he did not win the GOP nomination.

If you let all the spite and bullcarp out of McQueeg and you would end up with an organism that would make a virus look like a giant.

"I’d remind my colleagues that in the 2012 election, ObamaCare … was a subject that was a major issue in the campaign. … Well, the People spoke..."

What a joke. The GOP-e twisted arms and bent the rules to give Mitt Romney- the grandfather of Obamacare- the nomination. Many voters simply stayed home because they felt (likely accurately) that neither man running for president was going to repeal Obamacare. Let's stop with the revisionist istory.

Mccain voted against the Bush tax cuts. Apparently he only respects outcome of elections when Democrats win.

“repair ObamaCare”
That's reminds me of Bill Clinton's remarks about affirmative action, "mend it, don't end it" And every bit as phony.

I couldn’t agree more. The GOPe went after TEA party candidates. I think they dug up much of the dirt, made false accusations, and plainly tried to defeat anyone who wasn’t going to play along (Herman Cain and Newt to be sure).

It was opposition research from both the Dems and the likes of McCain and Rove.

I know this numbnutz must NEVER have read the US Constitution. This same election that voted in Obama also voted in a Republican House to control the purse strings.

So, John, the people have spoken and elections have consequences.

Finally, if you think the constitution means that electing a president means that the House has to toe his line and carry his water, then you are truly illiterate.

Elections have consequences. In the 2010 election the campaign was to defund obamacare and the republicans won. I guess elections only have consequences if the liberals win.

The senate acts like the house doesn’t even exist. Boner should send a CR to the senate not only making them join obamacare, but stop their salaries just for the hell of it. After all, the house controls the purse.

McCain is the one who came up with co-chairs because the senate was spit 50-50.

Hey McLame

Just because Obama was reelected has nothing to do with Obamacare.

Shove your stinking comparison up your smelly Obama.

Why don’t you come clean on how you had a hand in the IRS going after the Tea Party.

Exactly! Not to mention that Obama was running against the "grandfather of ObamaCare".

I just watched Sen Mitch Mc on Huckabee, trying to explain why he was not totally or at all on right side.

Huck trying to give Mitch cover and trying to muddy the waters at the same time.

Mitch wanted the Senate Dems and Boehner to fund kenyancare and put the issue to bed. The closer it gets to his election the more likely it is he will grow a (temporary) conservative spine on obamacare.
