From the NYT, no less

quote:

House Republican leaders and the White House, under extreme pressure from conservative activists, have restarted negotiations on legislation to repeal the Affordable Care Act, with House leaders declaring that Democrats were celebrating the law’s survival prematurely.



Oh, you libs. If you could just see your faces right now?
quote:

Vice President Mike Pence was dispatched to Capitol Hill on Tuesday for lunchtime talks.

quote:

The House Republican whip, Steve Scalise of Louisiana, said of Democrats, “Their celebration is premature. We are closer to repealing Obamacare than we ever have been before.”

Did they really think that healthcare was no longer on the agenda?

If they bring it up again...they had better get a much better bill and they had better make sure it goes through.

Every post on here said

1) Trump was done

2) The legislation was a colossal failure

3) Obamacare would be around for the 2018 elections


So, yeah, they thought the battle was over

I heard from the 4D chessticians that Obamacare was going to be kept around as a wedge issue for the 2018 midterms. All part of Trump's diabolical plan. Keep your story straight, guys.

So are you going to repeal it without touching the taxes? Since, you know, tax bills have to start in the House.

quote:

All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.


Also, are you under some sort of illusion that the Senate is MORE conservative than the House?

I thought the 480-D chess move was watching Obamacare explode? So getting back to work on it is the real move?

You guys don't know what you want.

I'll take that if they can't put forth a bill that actually replaces Obamacare.

Freedom caucus is begging to right their wrong.


They realized they screwed themselves with their constituents.

Or, maybe it's the other way around.
