Mike Luckovich for May 28, 2017

Yep, that sums it up. And Greg Walden also played a big role.

Shouldn’t P. Ryan be saying that “you ARE the lion share”?

Congrats on winning a Reubens!

The Republicans never ever cared about the Healthcare of this nation. They whined and cried and made threats for over 7 years after the ACA (Obamacare) was enacted. You would think that after all that time when they finally obtained the reins of power in Congress and the Presidency, with no one to stop them, they would have had a real plan in place and ready to go to Replace and Repeal as they had been preaching for so long. They had and have nothing because they had nothing all along. It was all just a hate anything and everything Obama had ever got accomplished, the nation be damned. And lord knows with this “treasonous” administration in place, we all are.

But now even Yertle The Turtle McConshell is admitting they CAN’T “Repeal and Replace”!

Who knew health care could be so complicated?

Shame that this isn’t part of the US Constitution …

Article 25 of the United Nations’ Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1948 states that “Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services.”

Of course, the Republicans USED to believe this, as expressed by republican Senator Daniel J.Morrell of Pennsylvania back in the 1860s. In his first speech in Congress Mr. Morrell uttered the following plea for labor: “The American workingman must live in a house, not a hut; he must wear decent clothes and eat wholesome and nourishing food. He is an integral part of the municipality, the State, and the Nation; subject to no fetters of class or caste; neither pauper, nor peasant, nor serf, but a free American citizen. He has the ballot, and if it were possible it would be dangerous to degrade him. The country stands pledged to give him education, political power, and a higher form of life than foreign nations accord their laborers, and he must be sustained by higher rates of wages than those of Europe. Our industries operated by American citizens must be freed from foreign interference and organized into a distinct American system, which will exact some temporary sacrifices but result in general prosperity and true national independence. In maintaining diversified industries we utilize every talent, provide a field for every capacity, and bind together the whole people in mutual dependence and support, assuring the strength and security of our Republic.”

Too bad THOSE Republicans died off long ago.

The extremist right wingers want all tax dollars to go to the military and tax breaks for billionaires. Nothing for the American People who actually pay the taxes.

Our local “inventor” gets the award for most fake facts invented for a single post, usually every day, and in every one of his/her comments.

The Republicans hate the poor and elderly. If they had made better choices, they wouldn’t be poor or elderly. Republicans don’t have pre-existing conditions. If they do they are RINOs
