Let the finger pointing begin… GOP’s Civil War is going to be ugly
The HCR bill hasn’t even passed yet, but the GOP civil war has already begun and it won’t be pretty. David Frum, George Dubya’s speech writer, has already called out the Jim Demint wing of the party for a series of “stupid and bad decisions”.
Republicans were united against the whole thing, even if some parts of the the bill were originally Republican ideas. This mentality failed and there will be hell to pay for this. By refusing to negotiate or be reasonable with any part of this popular bill, the Republicans have framed themselves as a party full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. The Republican story is a tale told of by idiots.
Is there a Republican meltdown on the horizon? We can only hope.
Does the bill need improvement? Absolutely.
Can it be improved now that we have a foundation for quality, affordable healthcare for all? Definately.
Will it happen in our lifetime? Hope and ensuring that more Democrats and Progressives are elected to State and Federal office will be the keys to having a meaningful National healthcare program that will work for all Americans.
I am loving C-Span right now. The Repubs seem depleted and bring up the same ole, same ole.
Yes, this bill needs improvement. I am sick about a pro-choice President ordering an Executive Order that hurts young women. This isn’t fair. Stupak needs to go.
