GOP eyes Dem help on ObamaCare (unbelievably stupid people in the GOP!)

Posted on 04/02/2014 3:45:53 AM PDT by Red in Blue PA

House Republicans will bring three bills to the floor for votes this week that would expand religious and military exemptions under ObamaCare.

And for a change, Republicans are expecting significant help from Democrats to pass the legislation.

GOP leaders are treating the three ObamaCare bills as "suspension" legislation, which means they will get a shorter debate and must pass with a two-thirds majority vote. That's a sign Republicans believe they have enough support from Democrats to pass the bills.

Let this turd fail! Why is the GOP actively helping this disastrous bill live? Roll it out as is and let people experience it fully.

Two reasons:

1: G.O.P. = Give Obama Power

and

2: RomneyCARE = ObamaCARE = HillaryCARE

Remember 2012 ? That should be the theme of any conservative running against the GOPES (gop elite snobs) that’s been in office. This is what they did http://www.theusmat.com/ and didn’t do.
Including mentioning disposing of GOD (and suggest the answer as to the question why the democrats in name only are such liars) at their national convention

They are not stupid, they are deliberately colluding with the libs to keep this socialist anvil that is tied to our necks, this POS, and unmitigated disaster alive. Take names and mark them for eviction.

I can’t wait for the GOPe defenders on FR to invade shortly. I suppose they are tuned just like their Democrat counterparts to wait for the talking points memo.

So threatened Dems can say in their campaign ads that they tried to “fix” ObamaCare. Really…..Boehner has to be blackmailed by the Democrats to go for this fig leaf scheme. He can’t really be this stupid, can he?

Of course they are. There is no conservative party left in America that has any power.

Huh? Fail? We need to chop this tree down, and this looks like an attempt to knock a few branches off.

Why is that a bad thing?

...actually reading the article tenderizes the red meat quotient, and reduces the outrage to below sufficient levels...

All we should hear from Repubs on Obamacare is “repeal, repeal, repeal.” Yet we almost never hear it. What idiots.

The only way it will truly fail is if people feel it in full force. Changing it only assures it will have a long life.

Why they didn’t just defund everything Obamacare is beyond comprehension. I can only conclude that the HOR ‘pubs want Obamacare, just with a bigger chunk of the dollars going to their paymasters.

I actually heard Tom Coburn on FNC this morning say “we (the government) need to fix healthcare and republicans have introduced several initiatives to fix it”. I wanted to just scream.

It’s small consolation but I look forward to the day when all the GOP fans and detractors will have to admit that us evil purists were right all along.

Because we have been right all along. And no amount of screaming, tantrums or pictures of Yosemite Sam on a dragon will change that. But most likely, their egos will not allow them to admit it. Just as their egos keep them giving the GOP power to help the Democrats keep Obamacare alive.

That’s what “Vote GOP NO MATTER WHAT” really means. They put themselves ahead of their country.
