If the Republican party succeeds in repealing and replacing, okay. They are the legitimately elected government. You would think it would be easy with majorities in Congress and the Presidency. But that doesn't mean I have to support them in the effort to kill the general idea of health coverage, I think they honestly misunderstand the human impact on their constituents, and I'm pleased with their failure to make any real progress so far.

What are low-income Republican voters who support repeal really asking for? Leopards to eat their face:

'I never thought leopards would eat MY face,' sobs woman who voted for the Leopards Eating People's Faces Party'

You guys keep trashing republicans because they "don't care about the poor". So since you guys support funding the poor, I want to know how many people you are going to support out of pocket.

I'm looking for either a number of people (0, 1, 2, etc.), or a dollar amount.
25. And I'm taking in 37 immigrants into my house. What about you, family values party?

Funny how liberals are "color blind", but only for certain races. I wonder what their reaction would be if I said Detroit already has an overabundance of ******s. But oh no, not against one of their sacred protected races.

If everyone doesn't pay into the healthcare system, everyone loses. What the republicans are trying to do is just pass their agenda they campaigned on. They are behind closed doors with no input from the medical and insurance fields and the actual people their bill would hurt. Our government knows nothing about the medical field so why in the world would we trust them with our lives. On the other hand, why don't the american people get the same insurance our congress gets. Wouldn't that be the easier thing.
