I kinda like the idea that any healthcare bill the gov't considers MUST apply to any and all Congressional and gov't employees. As a prod to get McConnell and Ryan off their lazy asses, all current gov't heathcare policies are permanently cancelled, as of yesterday. I wonder how long it would take them to get a good policy together? Gees, guys, you've had since 2010 to have a draft in the works, but you continue to be so busy fund raising, you can't do any work for those who put you there. This is a wake-up call, Bucko!

Repeal it. We don’t want a replacement.

Now that "Trumpcare" or "Ryancare" is gone, the nation must live with Obamacare. A Democratic program from birth, it is visibly failing. And Democrats now own it again, as not one Democrat was there to help reform it. In the off-year election of 2018, they may be begging for Republican help in reforming the health care system.

I think Trump wanted the bill to fail. Any new health care that was attributed to the Republicans would be declared a failure by the MSM even if it was considerable better then Obamacare. Trump had to look like he tried. But the endgame is to have the Dems admit Obamacare is a failure and come crawling to Trump to fix it when it finally implodes. That would be the only way to document that Obamacare was indeed a failure and Trump fixed it.

Route or rout?

I see either one being correct...

...as long as one of them leads to Ryan’s exit.

Old news. We’d like to hear more about the missing $10 TRILLION from the Defense Dept. during the last ten years. That’s the amount of national debt that Obama racked up and someone should know where it went. You can’t “lose” $10 TRILLION without a trace.

FR Article post

"Effective as of Dec. 31, 2017, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is repealed, and the provisions of law amended or repealed by such Act are restored or revived as if such Act had not been enacted," the bill states.

  Acording to Bartleby.com: here is the actual Kennedy quotation: "There’s an old saying that victory has 100 fathers and defeat is an orphan." However, that is not correct, according to William Safire, who wrote: " 'Victory has a THOUSAND fathers, but defeat is an orphan' was 'made famous" by President Kennedy 'as he assumed responsibility for the Bay of Pigs fiasco.' The disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion occurred in 1961.
  
  Safire and another source pinpoint an earlier use by the Italian diplomat Count Ciano, in 1942, when Italy was allied with Germany in World War II. His diary renders it as follows, in Italian: " La victoria trova cento padri, e nessuno vuole riconoscere l'insuccesso" --- Note the word "cento", which means "a hundred".
  
  But note also that President Kennedy said that this is "an old saying". It's quite likely that the origin of this phrase is unknown and lost to history.

•  The quote become no longer from Kennedy, yet Galeazzo Ciano, son-in-regulation of Benito Mussolini and Italian overseas Minister (1937-1943). Kennedy's speech author stole the words from Ciano's diary revealed in 1946(?) The quote signifies that if a project is a fulfillment absolutely everyone lines up and should be linked with it. If it really is a failure, each and each person runs away and denies that that they had something to do with it.. Ciano become writing about the conflict in North Africa and the Italians undesirable overall performance adverse to a much smaller British military.
