The House will vote next week to repeal the health care law Republicans have vowed to undo.

They’ll also direct work to start on a replacement bill the GOP promised more than four years ago. …

Sounds like the gentlepersons of the Associated Press have got their little taffeta knickers in a bon-bon.

[Olog-hai]

I really didn’t want to hear what they had on under their pajama onesies, but it is what it is.

[skinkinthegrass]

*Yeah! Right!* /s

[Responsibility2nd]

Absolutely.

They want to replace ObamaCare with a watered down version that only sucks less.

Instead of ObamaCare driving us over the cliff at 90 mph, RepubCare will drive us over at a more sedate 30 mph.

Isn’t that Special?

I would be surprised and disappointed if the replacement bill had not been finalized and ready a year ago in anticipation of this moment. If it is not ready to go then the Republican leadership is weaker than I ever thought.

[Red_Devil 232]

It is amazing to me that the Republicans did not have this ready to go go on day One!

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Begin work?

Pathetic.

[Olog-hai]

If I were destined to go over a cliff, I’d make sure I had a wing suit on.

[VRWC For Truth]

They’ll do nothing. They are exempt from the laws they make the rest of us plebes follow. They don’t care. Vote them out just like Cantor.

[Olog-hai]

Oh, they’re ready for the go-go all right.

[BenLurkin]

Dear Congress:

There is only one alternative fitting for Americans.

It is called “free enterprise”

Dismantle Obamacare. And Medicare while you’re at it.

Sincerely,
Ben

[Responsibility2nd]

Whatever they do, one thing is for sure. They are Republicans. And they WILL disappoint me.

[Qiviut]

If I were destined to go over a cliff, I’d make sure I had a wing suit on.

FINALLY? Right.

[Noamie]

What is WRONG with these people?

What part of “you guys just make it worse” is so hard for these egoists to get?

[Redbob]

What do you want to bet, our GOP congresscritters will come up with nothing more than “Obamacare Lite”?

Why is it the Dimocrats set the agenda, and then our side always buys into it, saying “We can do that better?”

[funfan]

No “Mandatory” clause.

[Ingtar]

Why does the word alternative scare me?

[Olog-hai]

Operator error. </sarcasm>
