By Tommy Christopher - November 4, 2018
When Republicans voted to gut protections for people with pre-existing conditions, Martha McSally cheered, 'Lets get this f--king thing done!'
Rep. Martha McSally (R-AZ), the GOP nominee for Senate in Arizona, is the latest Republican to deal with her bad record on health care by simply lying about it.
American Bridge recently posted video of a woman asking McSally why she voted to strip protections for people with pre-existing conditions.
I did not, thats a lie, McSally replied sharply. I voted to protect them. And we have people right now who dont have coverage.
This is not the first time that McSally has told this lie; she has even claimed to be leading the fight to protect people with pre-existing conditions.
But as Politifact pointed out, McSally voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), which prevents insurers from discriminating against people because theyre sick.

(82,849 posts)Remember, the ACA was enacted without one single Republican vote. The Republicans have worked relentlessly over the last eight years to hamstring the ACA, mounting legal challenges all through 2009 and 2010, then turning up the heat trying to craft legislation that would overturn the Act. Even after they lost vote after vote, they kept bringing up fresh legislation, once giving the excuse that their new congress critters in 2011 hadn't had a chance to register a vote against the ACA. They knew their bill wouldn't get a floor vote in the Senate, but they passed bills in the House so their members could have a vote against the ACA on their record.
Now? Oh, they're the great defenders of the ACA! And the media have suffered some rare form of amnesia that has caused them to forget all those lawsuits, all those bills and all those votes over the last eight years.
