GOP Leaders Ready To Pivot From 'Do-Nothing' To Doing A Lot In 2017

When they replace Obamacare, let's hope they draft and enact a health care that is available to All Americans - meaning themselves too. No exceptions for them or staff.

I have a copy of the Republican healthcare proposal from 2007/ 8 can't post to here, but will fwd a cop[y to Joe. Makes more sense than the Den version, and is only like 219pages long, I think.], not 25000. It's simple, but not without controversy. At least it's small enough to read understand and argue.

Those idiots who claim the RNC never put anything on the table are, again, LIARS! And idiots, of course!
