Playing With Nukes
Y’all, seriously. Republican Senator Mike Lee of Utah has got himself a plan to finally, oh dear God finally, repeal Obamacare.
Conservative firebrand Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) announced on Friday that he plans to use a complicated procedural maneuver known as the nuclear option to repeal the Affordable Care Act with just 51 votes.
I think this makes about 2,614th time they have tried to repeal Obamacare.
If they succeed, 16.4 million people will immediately be without health insurance and probably really pissed off about it.
I suspect Lee will want anyone with Obamacare who is currently hospitalized to be pushed out into the parking lot with some aspirin and a bottle of cough syrup.
Republicans – admit it – just damn admit it. You do not like it because (1) it works, and (2) you were dumb enough to name it after him.
