Paul Ryan: We Did Our Job on Healthcare and We're Moving Onto Tax Reform

7/18/2017 10:45:00 AM -

Addressing reporters during the weekly House Leadership press conference Tuesday morning, Speaker Paul Ryan expressed frustration with the Senate's inability to come to an agreement on healthcare and reminded Americans watching that the House has done its job to fulfill the promise of repealing and replacing Obamacare. 

"We'd like to see the Senate move on something. We are proud of the bill we passed. We passed a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare and to replace it with a better system. As you well know, the legislative process for it to work, the House has to pass a bill. We've done that. The Senate has to pass a bill for us to even move forward. That's the next step, so we're hoping they can achieve that next step so that we can bring real relief," Ryan said.

But a healthcare stall in the Senate isn't stopping President Trump's agenda in the House. Ryan detailed plans to move onto tax reform in the coming weeks.

"We passed a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare..."

Starting your argument from a lie doesn't do you any justice, Ryan.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!

Of course he is. He is a total failure and we shouldn't hold our breath for tax reform anytime in our lifetimes.

No.  He's an idiot.  What part of "repeal" doesn't he comprehend?
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Paul Ryan's job was to repeal Obamacare.  Since Trump was elected, the House has failed to pass a repeal bill.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

They should have abolished the CBO first. This would make repeal that much easier since their flawed and non-essential speculation (it is none of their business what the number of insured would be, only the projected cost and impact on the deficit) would no longer be a factor.

If Ryan thinks that stinker of a bill was doing his job on Obamacare, he needs a serious reality check

Given his understanding of the word repeal, I'm terrified to see what he thinks reform means.

I wonder what that small brain of his believes he actually accomplished on this?

Of course he is.  The bill the House passed, while not nearly as good as a full repeal, is still much better than Obamacare itself.  It also has enough premium relief for average taxpayers that it would help in the midterms.  For all those who say "repeal or nothing", what they're going to get is "nothing" (that's reality, whether people want to admit it or not), and then a Democratic takeover of Congress because the GOP did nothing.  And the health care bill that emerges from a Democratic Congress is going to be much worse than ObamaCare.
