1. let's be clear here

obviously people could not afford these rates so they could not get insurance, which is the purpose of the ridiculous rates.....we would be back to massive numbers of uninsured, which is exactly what repukes want

[SharonClark]

12. Exactly right.

Thanks to AARP for making it clear.

2. I think people are getting complacent after so many attempts at repeal

These numbers are shocking and completely unacceptable. There should be protests in every city in America.

Why do Republicans hate ordinary people so much? It's VICIOUS.

And how do these people keep getting reelected?

[Le Gaucher]

4. They hate people who think they want too many things without paying

Market rate .. and the Rich are being forced to subsidize them

9. less complacement, more fatigued

While it was easy to ignore the repeated attempts during Obama's presidency, they've done this what, a half dozen times in the past six months? It's become such a cycle that it wears down those that are really fighting it - and they do keep fighting on - but those that are less observant are basically "what, again? Come on..." and they take the threat less seriously each time as it must seem to them like someone is just screwing with them.

3. I'm going to be f-ing blunt.

This is an attempt to cull Americans.

[King_Klonopin]

5. Passive-aggressive ethnic cleansing, perpetrated by sniveling, lying weasels

It is also a big, fat give-away to the Insurance Industry. Pay up or die !

It reduces the surplus population, fattens up their profit margins, and allows
them to abandon the sick and poor. Better to let them die rather than to fork
over money for their healthcare.

Can a class-action lawsuit be filed against the Senate, claiming that the U.S.
Congress is intentionally inflicting bodily harm on the citizens of the nation ?
Only a person with an IQ of less than 30 could deny that this Bill would
cause certain harm and death for thousands, if not millions, of citizens.

[LiberalLoner]

6. Yup. Exactly.

[PA Democrat]

7. Thank you for this info. I will quote it when I call Pat Toomey's office again today.

I think I will call those liars Cassidy and Graham again as well. They will have blood on their hands if this bill passes.

[OnDoutside]

14. Waste of time calling that rat, concentrate on the ones who

Might switch.

[PA Democrat]

15. I called all of them as well.

But I still think Toomey needs to hear from the people he is supposed to represent.

[democratisphere]

8. Actually if this rediculus anti-healthcare bill passed, then people realize

how horribly it affects so many of them, this will result in the end of the redumbliCON party.

[maxrandb]

13. NO!!!!!!

We need to stop with the THEY WILL KILL THEIR OWN PARTY horseshit, and kill this fucking deplorable party once and for all.

We need to proactively destroy Retrumplicans.

Did the stupid fucking Iraq War kill the Retrumplican Party?

Did the destruction of New Orleans kill the Retrumplican Party?

Did the Bush/Cheney recession kill the Retrumplican Party?

Did the Great Depression kill the Retrumplican Party?

Did marching with Tiki Torches and chanting Nazi slogans kill the Retrumplican Party?

Did the destruction of Unions kill the Retrumplican Party?

Did "trickle-down" kill the Retrumplican Party?

Fuck no those things didn't "kill" the Retrumplican Party. I've been told over and over and over again that "this" was the "death of the ReTrumplican Party", but it fucking keeps coming back like a bad fucking zombie movie.

If we are really going to kill this fucking disgusting piece of shit party once and for all, we need to pull it out by the fucking roots and salt the fucking ground.

We need to bury their 2,000+ Cookie-Cutter Hate Radio Stations signal towers under 100 feet of steel reinforced concrete, preferably with the hosts attached to them.

We need to get money out of politics and TAX THE EVER-LOVING FUCK out of people like Donnie Short Fingers and his fraudulent pissant corporate stooges.

And even if we are able to do all that, we'll need to post a Knight's Watch to rip out every little fucking root that tries to reemerge.
