I think the more McConnell keeps trying to push a new "bill" to repeal ACA the more people are going to jump ship. I agree with Vee, no one wants to be part of this. I think they're finally getting the message that if they support this they'll pay for it when re-election time comes.

So apparently Trump and Putin had a second meeting, off the books in private. Are people still going to claim that there is nothing suspicious going on??

Yes they will. In fact I expect our trolls to do exactly that any minute now. *looks at watch*

 Oh yeah, I forgot about those.  Or should I prepare for a troll to post a totally irrelevant article about the stock market surge?

Nah probably an article about Caitlyn Jenner running for the senate.

Or Kid Rock. As if either one are relevant.

if the Dems go after Caitlyn (should she run) the Republicans can call them homophobic for attacking a trans woman

I notice that the main three GOP senators who publicly opposed the repeal bill were women. I guess it shows what will happen in politics when women are shut out and how women are probably the holding line for even more horrific things being passed.

 

I was looking at this which had some of the Democratic response ads to the 1993-1994 "Harry and Louise" spots - they're really bad (the first one is especially smug). I guess they truly had no idea how close they were to losing Congress.

That's ridiculous. By that kind of reasoning the Democrats could have called the Republicans racists for going after Obama.

 

Don't feed the trolls.

 

Speaking of trolls, the Troll-in-chief ranting about letting Obamacare "fail" reminds me of every spoiled rich kid in every cartoon where once said rich kid is stopped in his tracks from wreaking havoc and chaos with some gadget, proceeds to whine and have a temper tantrum about how his fun has been ruined by 'do-gooders'.

 

With each new attempt, the GOP healthcare plans are actually getting worse.

^ They clearly don't know what they are doing and I'm not sure if I should be grateful or terrified. I'm leaning toward terrified.
