Of course. I was playing slack-jaw's advocate.
I'll just leave this here while I'm at it.
OMG Politics, I'm over it already.

And now they're pounding Bud Lights in the Rose Garden. It's astounding.

let's see what happens in the senate.
then in 6 months, let's see what happens when millions (hopefully lots of cheeto supporters) suddenly find that their health care is either gone or quadrupled in cost.

kinda reminds me of the times when LBJ peed in the rose garden, on the roses.
(he did it quite a lot and sometimes right in front of the press)

or it's another step towards the destruction of the gop.
at some point, folks are going to stop taking the squeeze.

I believe the Republicans who voted for this feel exactly the same way. Which is why they're able to get away with it.
He did. But Repeal/Replace is all they'll hear, and all they care about.

Dan Rather:
History doesn't reward political victories, it rewards improvements in the human condition.
The health care bill that the Republicans have just rammed through the House of Representatives is all about optics. It's all about a political "win" for the President and his party. It's all about serving the base.
But what about what it means for millions of Americans? What does it mean for a young mother facing a cancer diagnosis and worrying about the future of her young child? What does it mean for an HIV patient worrying about losing a job and the cost of his pre-exisiting condition? What does it mean for a family facing sickness, and bankruptcy?
What will this bill mean for all of these people, and countless more? We don't know. No one really knows. We are in a rush without reason. A major piece of legislation is being crammed through before it is even analyzed and vetted. Of course our current system isn't perfect - far from it. Of course the Affordable Care Act needs revisions. Who gets something that big right the first time? But instead of progress and thought, we get chaos and grandstanding.
There will be no end to the speculation of how this will affect the political fortunes of the two major parties. And on that front, frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn. I worry for my fellow citizens for whom the burden of health will now be compounded by the burden of injustice.
