Dems should cynically put out an APB for someone with brain cancer who obtained treatment they may not have obtained in the absence of ACA. Ideally from Arizona.
Yes, but in a double utley you can put your utley on top they other guy's utley, and you're the winner. (Swish)

Pubs are really good at finding and promoting anecdotes and citing them as evidence. Dems, not so much.

O'Donnell absolutely kills tonight with a dissection of Republican perfidy regarding Senate procedure in the era of McConnell - perfidy McCain's bizarre speech ostensibly condemns. Put your votes where your mouth is, Senator McCain.

Vote tonight was used as a proxy vote for BCRA itself. This version of BCRA is dead..they have a few more yet to go.

Isn't that McCain? Don't they all have ACA gold level plans or something?

I mean a "civilian", someone who likely wouldn't have had coverage without ACA

The Tuesday night tally needed to reach 60 votes to overcome a parliamentary objection. Instead, it fell 43-57. The fact that the comprehensive replacement plan came up well short of even 50 votes was an ominous sign for Republican leaders still grappling with a formula to pass final health care legislation this week.

pretty sure Mitch would be unwise to count Capito & McCain's s "yes" votes on BCRA v.1.0 as bankable

I think it's important to keep in mind that the bewildering slurry of votes that are part of legislative "operations" in the Senate - & in any relatively mature, "sophisticated" democratic body anywhere - is meant to baffle not only the person on the street, but frankly also many if not most participating legislators.

Also, Grassley's poor man's imitation of Mitch McConnell, treating disgusting creeps like Kushner & Manafort with kid procedural gloves, is itself creepy & disgusting

Rick Perry thought he was talking to a world leader about pig manure. It was a prank call.


Really happened.

Live from Youngstown.

“I was looking at some of those big, once incredible job-producing factories. And my wife, Melania, said, ‘What happened?’ I said, ‘Those jobs have left Ohio,’ ” Trump said to a cheering audience of several thousand. “They’re all coming back. . . . We’re going to fill up those factories or rip ’em down and build brand new ones. That’s what’s going to happen.”


Oh. Liar.

Thought this tweet thread was a good explanation of what McConnell et al are up to
