Just on CNN. Rep Burgess just said they have the votes to kill Obamacare. He is a fucking DOCTOR! Guess he did not take his HYPOCRIT OATH very seriously.
The Hippocratic Oath:
.............................................................
I swear to fulfill, to the best of my ability and judgment, this covenant:...
I will respect the privacy of my patients, for their problems are not disclosed to me that the world may know. Most especially must I tread with care in matters of life and death. Above all, I must not play at God.
I will remember that I do not treat a fever chart, a cancerous growth, but a sick human being, whose illness may affect the person's family and economic stability. My responsibility includes these related problems, if I am to care adequately for the sick.
I will prevent disease whenever I can but I will always look for a path to a cure for all diseases.
I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind and body as well as the infirm.
If I do not violate this oath, may I enjoy life and art, respected while I live and remembered with affection thereafter. May I always act so as to preserve the finest traditions of my calling and may I long experience the joy of healing those who seek my help.

It is sickening.

(16,104 posts)What will the Senate do? Will they just cosign it and send it up to the Corrupt One?
Will they modify it, and have another reconciliation vote in the House?
Will they in effect send it back to the House and tell them to try again?
Will we ever sleep peacefully again?

(83,751 posts)if they do pass this. I am not 100% sure that the Senate will vote it down. Their fondest wish is to kill Americans so they can to line their pockets.
