WASHINGTON — U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner said Tuesday that he agrees with some of the criticism Senate Republicans have faced over the lack of public debate during their attempt to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

“It should be more open,” said the Colorado Republican in a brief interview. “I think there should be (Senate) hearings on this.”

But, Gardner said, the fault lies with U.S. politics writ large, rather than with him and other Senate Republican leaders, who are writing the bill and control the chamber’s agenda.

“I’m disappointed that we have a Washington, D.C., so fundamentally broken that both sides of the aisle can’t come together to fix” health care, said Gardner, whose role as chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee makes him one of the top GOP officials in the Senate.

1. They are writing the bill but it is someone else's fault.

That's some kind of personal responsibility right there.

13. Is the attitude of an abuser

"Do you see what you made me do?"

[Wellstone ruled]

2. What a load of

horse sh*t.

[politicat]

3. And once again, the Grinning Idiot ducks any responsibility.

Both sides, Cory? Bullshit.

Come meet your constituents. We've been having townhalls without you because you're scared of us. Maybe because you know you wrong?

[Roci]

4. But, you can bet..

that he's still going to vote for it, like a good little wolf in sheep's clothing.
Colorado elected him. Maybe they deserve him.

5. If you denied a pet health care, you'd be charged with NEGLECT

How is it any different to cancel health coverage for HUMANS?

6. This Cory Garnder is full of FUCKING SHIT, he was on and is on the death panel FUCK HIM

When you read the below thread capture, CORY GARDNER has a big old "red" circle

around his name, with 271,500 human being will "lose" there coverage this means that out of 5.658 million human beings population in Colorado, my brothers state and where I formally use to live, 1 in 20 human beings are going to be denied health care, that's what people should be calling about, instead of this dog and pony show that this fucking liar is trying to spew out, he is fucking propagandist bullshit like some fucking propagandist that has no business being inside "our" government, trying to kill people , and to top it all off making over $174,000 a year trying is damnedest to screw not only the 5.658 million, but given the break down of the median income in the state just so that his fucking lobbyists buddies sitting in his office screw these people in these countries for some 800 billion in tax breaks, FUCK HIM

The McConnell Corrupt Bargain And The Fallacy of Policy Literalism

This is what the local media should be fucking hammering home on the local news about this asshole called Cory Gardner,, maybe the local corporate run media, should have run and "explained how the fucking doofus from Utah Orrin Hatch that when challenged by Claire McCaskill looked and sounded like he had head lights thrown into his worthless eyes and was just blathering and screwing human beings, and didn't know what she was talking about----------------BULLSHIT, he knew.


The fucking media should be reporting this shit at the national and local level, no wonder we have the fuckers running around congress saying the bullshit like this asshole Gardner, he is "part of the death panel caucus, he was in the fucking room, holding these "secret fascist meeting to screw human beings over, and now he saying he thinks it should be transparent, well Gardner your about 6 months to late, when your death panel party got power----------and your fucking Turtle said fuck this country and the human beings that need health insurance, because of your fucking Marco Rubio rider he planted in the budget, to defund the government from paying insurance companies subsidies to make health care affordable


Fuck this asshole

7. I've seen several say this, incl. one who is ON the secret small all-male Health Board.

It's self-preservation, trying to separate themselves from the unpopular secrecy meme, while NOT DOING ONE THING TO PREVENT IT OR STOP IT.

The old "Don't blame me, I didn't do it!" with hands raised up in the air thing, all the while supporting the leadership who is doing it, and VOTING for it. Doesn't pass the smell test. They are ALL in on it.

[hatrack]

8. More Both-Sides Bullshit from yet another merchant of same

[lark]

9. Freaking liar - both sides are nowhere near the same!

Dems had hearings, tons of amendments, it was so open. Even most Repugs have no idea of the details of their "kill the poor and working class" plan. They know it takes $ from healthcare of the needy and gives that money directly to them and the other rich; so they will vote for it regardless of whether they know the contest or not. This from one of the people that kept this so secret is just a thigh slapper. Is hypocricy and the inability to tell the truth embedded in all repug genes? Sure look like that to me.

10. lol

He said "more"! lol Silly man.

[YOHABLO]

11. There's not enough EXLAX in the world that could alleviate their lying.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

12. But he's still going to vote for it

Right?

14. "If Liberals wouldn't speak, we wouldn't have to be so secretive."
