And now you have Trump. How is that theory working out for you?
I was pondering this yesterday, and there is an upside to all of this. You have a democracy. Congraturlations. Noone or nothing stepped in preventing this catastrophe you call Trump. You voted for him you got him. Ups and downs, all growing pains...
lol @ talkingpoints.txt. You guys really need to update the talking points folder, it's the same shit over and over.
If you don't like the Heritage Foundation's healthcare proposal, that became the AFA, then that's fine. But stop trying to pretend that this isn't a republican darling.
You would have ever guessed that the republicans hate their own ideas when they are repeated out of the mouth of a black man. The implementation, well, that's a different issue. I wasn't talking about that.

Oh I love the way you snip my entire post out and then Quote a partial quote of what someone else said in an attempt to make a point against me.
I voted for Trump purely for the SCOTUS Appointments. Nothing more.
I have said this several times in these forums.
This is a hard battle for you to win. It was a conservative think tank that came up with the idea, it was first adopted by a Republican Governor who eventually became the party's nominee. I'm sure there were some changes but to act like it wasn't a conservative idea is just silly. I'll accept you saying it was a conservative idea but I don't like it.
Also its become a democratic idea because we adopted it. I do feel comfortable saying the majority of democrats would perfer a single payer but regardless our president and congress enacted it and it's a good first step even with its flaws.
Yeah...regurgitate your lies to fit your dishonest narrative...fuck the truth. If anyone is changing the story here...it's you Pinocchio.not a lie. But you guys are squirming. "majority of republicans" in your mind is simply non-RINOs.
if you don't like the results, just change the story. Same repub strategy, over and over.
I didn't say that it wasn't a republican idea to begin with. Here is a quote of what I actually said:
" I also have serious doubts about it being a verbatim. I do not doubt that it has some kinship with other plans that were brought before, but it was still in all a plan that was basically passed without knowing what was in it or the implications. " We must pass this bill to see what is in it ". It is not a Republican bill. It is a Democrat bastard version of several previous proposals with many changes."
That is what I said exactly. Read my words.
And you just stated a load of crap and half truths... Dodge and weave brother, dodge and weave.

Brain dead narrative is brain dead narrative. Pathetic.
The answer is still NO. There were some similarities but there were many fundamental differences. And there was never anything anywhere close to majority Republican support for this plan in 1993.so, the ACA was not the Heritage Foundation proposed policy?
I guess you learn an alternative fact every day!
You spouted lies and I called you on them. Deal with it.so, as long as you're winning, right?
Yes it is.
When did I say that I approved the proposal? I didn't. You need to stop assuming. I know that you (and your above pal) have to disagree with everything I say, but think about things before posting. I think it had some good, and some bad in it. ACA as it is, is on the way to imploding. People who know far more than you or I about this agree on that. I don't want that, it would hurt Americans. Both sides need to come together and get something that works for the people better than what we have now. Which is basically all I said. Parroting about 20m Americans having healthcare because of ACA is pretty misleading from a practical standpoint. Claiming a number after forcing people to have it is silly. Some people who have it never meet the deductible, so they pay out of pocket anyway. So on paper they "have" insurance, yet do not get any benefits from it, and it costs them a huge amount. ACA has helped some people a lot, it has also hurt some people a lot. I know people on both sides, and they have different opinions about it obviously. You probably know people on both sides as well. Just using a number that 20m Americans have healthcare due to ACA and acting like everything is roses and rainbows is disingenuous.
They had 7 years to come up with something even slightly better than what they've been calling a "disaster", but dog ate their homework.

ah, so now democrats did seek republican guidance. ...I guess you need to go back to that comment of yours that brought you back to this concession.
