I know Slate is an ultra-left site, but they have a point.
There is an office that is only rarely mentioned, but should right now be the focus of conservatives in the House.
The office is of the “Parliamentarian of the United States House of Representatives.” The current Parliamentarian is Thomas J. Wickham Jr.
He is the one man who determines what parts of Obamacare can go to the conference committee for repeal, from the House. There is also a Senate Parliamentarian, who does the same for the senate.
Just a few days ago, he chimed in to say that the Ryan proposal could have gone a LOT further to repeal Obamacare in the conference committee.
So right now, the Freedom Caucus needs to get an explicit list of every part of Obamacare that can go to the conference committee for repeal.
Then demand a “clean bill” with ALL of this be voted on by the House. This will be the MAXIMUM amount of Obamacare that can be repealed right now.
Conservatives in the senate would do the same there.
More than anything else, this would be a “separating the sheep from the goats” vote. It would give Republican liberals an opportunity to commit political suicide by voting to keep Obamacare.
It would give the people clarity about who supports the people, and who supports globalism and special interests.
By demanding a clean bill to go to conference, the truth will win out.
Ryan must go. The GOPe is stabbing POTUS in the back. Primary them. Give no money to the RNC.

I didn’t post fast enough. What yefragetuwrabrumuy said.
Petty, empty, creepy little... adult males. Somehow ‘men’ doesn’t fit.
I will.
He is an enemy. ... Ryan is a Globalist.

Yep. Grind him into a greasy wet spot. Killing globalism will be the struggle of the 21st century, as killing various forms of totalitarian socialism was the struggle of the 20th.
Again, we are fighting for our lives and those of our loved ones.
Great post. That is powerful information.
You TOTALLY nailed it. Thanks!
And again, Wisconsin apologizes for this POS. We’re working hard behind the scenes to CANTORIZE his @ss!
Every time I see or hear Michelle Bachmann I am reminded of how smart and beautiful she is.
WHO is holding this woman back from saving us from ourselves?
Oh, that’s right. People like Paul Ryan. *SPIT*
Hey Paul,
Please jump off the capital you worthless GOPe dope
Paul Ryan tried to pull an Obama and ram his ACA Repeal Bill on the American public. In this case, he had an unfinished bill which would be like building an airplane without the landing gear. It was a toxic bill given the same rush job the Obama Regime pulled. However, Ryan’s rush job was for show and ignored the disaster it would create if it was left unfinished.
And we won’t sugarcoat this, Paul. You’re fired!
Ryan needs to go. He is a beta boy and will get nothing done.
He played that “I’m still learning” card when he first became speaker and gave Obama everything he wanted and more in his budget bill. He’s a POS traitor.
I didn’t want to admit it at the time but he did lose to Biden. Wow.
Paul Ryan is pathetic. And inept. He is said to be intelligent but I wouldn’t trust him to care for a goldfish.
Ryan gave Planned Parenthood twice as much money as Obummer had requested.
Repeal and Replace Ryan.
He should step down—fall on his sword. Trump will never trust him again. With Ryan in Charge even Trumps pick for Judge might fail. He is a Democrat in his heart. Need new Republican or in 2018 you will have Nancy P. at the gavel again—that or Shummer.
