Senate GOP ready to pass health-care bill — as long as there’s no chance it becomes law

Do you realize how broken and insane this party has become? This is an actual headline at Politico this afternoon:

Senate Republicans hope their own Obamacare repeal won't become law

The headline is accurate. What’s floating around the caucus right now is “skinny repeal,” a.k.a. a bill that would repeal the individual mandate, partially repeal the employer mandate, defund Planned Parenthood for a year, annnnnd … not do much more than that. The point of skinny repeal is to simply take the parts of ObamaCare that Republicans hate most and stick them in a repeal bill on the theory that there are probably 50 votes to pass that. They couldn’t pass McConnell’s BCRA health-care bill; they couldn’t pass clean repeal of ObamaCare either. Maybe they can pass this.

The GOP doesn't really want power.  They just want all the perks with none of the responsibility.

I don't see how anyone with a sane mind could vote for any Deamoncrat or Republicrat.  We ought to demand our states put a "None of the Above" option on the ballot.

Someone needs to step the hell up in the Senate and show some leadership! All these little Senate pampered princesses don't want this, don't want that, pissing, whining, moaning about any possible available option.
