The GOP is So Ashamed of their HC Bill, they won't let anyone see it

[Reasonable]

So McConnell wants to sneak it in to get a vote.
When you're cutting 25-40% of Medicaid in order to give the top 1% a huge tax cut, they should be ashamed.

Trump’s follies distract while Mitch McConnell brews healthcare poison

 

[whitehall]

Yeah but democrats actually physically barred republicans from the negotiations concerning Obamacare and it was finally passed with intimidation and threats and bribes while nobody in the democrat party ever read the thing. Then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told America that they will find out what's in the bill after it is passed.

No kidding, wasn't that the Democrats strategy with Obamacare.

There can only be one answer to a jackass statement like this!

No. But revising history is all you have. From the start - HRC trying to reform health care in the early 90's, the effort to reform health care has been under attack by the right wing, aka the neo fascists who profit from the misery of the many.

Well we could say...
THE DEMOCRATS WERE SO ASHAMED OF THEIR HEALTH CARE BILL THEY WOULD NOT GIVE ANYONE TIME TO READ IT BEFORE PASSING IT! LMAO!!!

And as is usual with the Clintons, Hillary violated the law in her efforts to get Hillarycare passed.

You can say that, and even write it, but that simply is not true. The attack on health care reform began before the first word of the PPACA was on paper, and the effort to create hysteria that reform = Socialism began then too. You're a damn liar, or too stupid to have followed what actually occurred.

So, how much time before the Obamacare was printed did the Congressmen have to read the thousands of pages and debate it?

 

[g5000]

The pseudocons have falsely whined on this forum many times that ObamaCare was written behind closed doors.

It's Okay When Republicans Do It!™

It wasn't thousands of pages.

I read it.

And there was plenty of time to read it, because the GOP offered hundreds of amendments.

I wonder how they did that if they never saw it? Hmmmm...

 

[gallantwarrior]

This is where I call BS.
Anyone who bought off on that "we have to pass it to see what's in it" line should just go FUCK themselves. Seriously, hypocrite much?

Really, well please enlighten the reader, what law(s) did she violate, which agency arrested her, and when was she arraigned and later tried?

Was that in Federal or State courts, did a jury find her guilty or a judge, and what was the sentence?

Only 564 amendments offered to Baucus health-care bill

Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont., revised key elements of the carefully crafted compromise that he announced only a week ago. The 13 Democrats and 10 Republicans took more than three hours to make their opening statements expressing their views. Committee members offered 564 amendments.

How were Republicans able to help craft 564 amendments just from a single committee if ObamaCare was written behind closed doors?

Another committee had 159 amendments added by Republicans:

The Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions adopted 159 amendments offered by Republicans, but only two of them were significant or controversial enough to merit roll call votes.

 

[X.Onasis]

Rightards believe a lot of stupid shit.
Senate Dems adopted 161 amendments and key GOP planks while soft-pedaling the public option. That's not compromise?

Let’s recall why the Affordable Care Act is so messed up



The Democratic leadership, fearful that momentum for Obamacare was fading as it continued to poll poorly, decided to rush a bill through the Senate before Christmas 2009. On November 18, Majority Leader Harry Reid merged two separate pending bills into a bill to be voted on by the Senate…. To meet the self-imposed Christmas deadline, Reid provided only six days for debate [on the final version of the bill]. The Senate bill passed on a strict party line vote, 60-39.

Few people, including Senators and their staffs, had time to read the whole 2,700 page bill, much less note any possible weaknesses, flaws, or ambiguities. Reid and other Senate Democrats weren’t terribly worried about this. The bill was set to go to the House, then back to the Senate, then to “reconciliation” between the House and the Senate versions, and then to the president for his signature. Everyone thought there would be plenty of opportunities to make changes.

But a major impediment arose soon after the Senate bill passed. Democratic Senator Ted Kennedy had died that past summer, and the January special election to replace him was won by Republican Scott Brown, who ran as a strong opponent of Obamacare. This deprived the Democrats of their filibuster-proof majority in the Senate, and meant that the Senate would not be able to pass a revised bill. The only way to pass Obamacare at this point was to have the House vote on identical legislation to the Senate bill, while engaging in legally dubious procedural maneuvering. And that’s what the Democrats did.


Congress ultimately passed a Senate bill that nobody wanted, and, indeed, that likely no one had read in its entirety when the Senate passed it, and that certainly no one fully understood. Senator Max Baucus, one of Obamacare’s chief architects, not only acknowledged not reading the bill, but opined that it would have been a “waste of time” to do so, because only experts could understand it….

Let’s recall why the Affordable Care Act is so messed up


In other words…Pelosi: You’ll have to pass it to see what’s in it! Democracy the Democrat’s way!

Unlike you tards, I read bills for myself instead of getting in line to be lied to by propaganda outlets.

You're stupid enough to bleev what you are told to bleev by your masters.

You didn't read your own link. The final bill was less than 2000 pages.
