Only if he gets to ask it rambling questions in a congressional hearing about its collusion with Hillary Clinton.
 
McCain sounds remarkably like a Democrat. Bitching about a bill he has not read.

"Both Democrats and Republicans in the Senate have complained that Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has crafted the bill largely behind closed doors and without the input of his fellow lawmakers."

Not only do I wonder whom the Republican is that complained (McCain doesn't count) but the statement is utterly false. They all have had opportunity for input. Offering none before the bill closed for drafting by the designated group, is not something to whine about.

They're tryna pass this shit by reconciliation in the Senate. Thus ain't no fuckin' healthcare bill. This is more tax breaks for the rich and the destruction of Medicaid.
 
well, if socialist Russia is giving input, all of those #withBERN and many of those #withher should love it!

But in the words of another 15-term Congresswoman, you gotta pass it to see what's in it.
 
Just got a letter in the mail yesterday...Jan 1 2018 my wife and I will again have to reapply for health insurance in the marketplace because the insurance co will no longer cover us........2 of the 24 million losing benefits.....we'll adjust but fuck Trumpcare for this..yet my taxes are paying for every politician in DC to have stellar healthcare benefits....and they can afford good healthcare

my turn? I pay taxes if that's your point....you can't support a system you've never seen....Trumpcare.....strangely enough...dental work my wife and I had scheduled is now more affordable to us by flying overseas and having the work done than having it done locally...including the cost of the trip....something inheritantly wrong with that but like I said.....I'll adjust.........

Why? They haven't passed anything yet as far as I know.

I keep seeing a commercial saying what will happen if they pass this mystery bill and it sounds terrible.
 
I suppose river's insurance company could be owned by Russians which would make McCain seem correct.

they are an insurance company...Trump declared Obamacare dead....guess they think they no longer have to accept it...capitalism rears it's ugly head but it's going to backfire in their case....my local dentist will also lose my business...how this improves things is beyond me but I guess we're going to arm the middle east instead of contribute to our own populations health care..

No explanation is the problem. Who, what when where why? You get no answers.

I'm way right of most of you here but we need some kind of insurance reform. This isn't working, Obamacare wasn't as bad for everyone but none of these ideas make sense on the surface. Someone has to pay.

MarAzul didn't even gloat, even though it happened to him first. Good on him.
 
He's still not over losing his election bid for president. He's not liked Obama nor Trump.

He hasn't gotten over being captured and tortured by the Viet Cong, either.

He's a butthurt snowflake, I guess.

In June and July 2009, with Democrats in charge, the Senate health committee spent nearly 60 hours over 13 days marking up the bill that became the Affordable Care Act. That September and October, the Senate Finance Committee worked on the legislation for eight days — its longest markup in two decades. It considered more than 130 amendments and held 79 roll-call votes. The full Senate debated the health care bill for 25 straight days before passing it on Dec. 24, 2009.

From snopes which is talking about how secret this new bill is.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has indicated he will be releasing a “discussion draft” of the bill this Thursday.
 
McCain haha. That MF doesn't give a shit about healthcare. He's just mad were not bombing 14 different countries simultaneously. The lack of death and destruction is giving him erectile dysfunction, so i guess it could be considered a 'health' issue.
 
He's literally just using it as a way to take jabs at another country lol. Stupid dick. McCain is is shining (or steaming) example of why we need term limits. He's been hovering over the shoulder of the last like 7 presidents trying to talk them into bombing various countries. Fuck him, send him packing.

I see you, and raise another Pelosi quote. While the Senate passed the bill you quoted in Dec 2009, Pelosi's comment was from Mar 9, 2010 and was talking about the amended Bill the House was crafting b/c the Senate one was not looking likely to pass the Democrat-controlled, but not filibuster-proof, House.
WaPo said:
During a lunch in the Capitol with opinion writers today, House Minority Leader Pelosi was asked about those infamous words. “It’s because we didn’t have a Senate bill,” Pelosi said forcefully before Eleanor Clift of Newsweek even finished asking her a question about the statement’s context. “We were urging the Senate to pass a bill.”
