Senator Cotton -- say WHAT??

[madamesilverspurs]

Heard Senator Tom Cotton on the teevee saying that Republicans are going to get rid of Obamare because "Americans are smart enough to make their own healthcare decisions."

Well, either he's lying or he's admitting that Republicans don't consider women to be American. Which is it, Senator?

1. The Cotton 2020 train is rolling down the track.

Bet on it.

[Squinch]

2. Excellent point.

[roamer65]

4. Imagine if we had constitutional amendment for recall.

What a beautiful thing it would be.

[Ligyron]

5. No, they're not wealthy enough Tom.

If it was about intelligence...

6. this is the BIG LIE about Obamacare

about "you can't make your own decisions". For the first time in his life, my husband needed healthcare. In June of this year he was diagnosed with cancer of the base of his tongue. Thank god we had insurance through the Marketplace. Now, it wasn't the best you could get and we had a high deductible, but $9,000 is better than $220,000. ( The out of pocket was 6500, but some things like liquid food wasn't covered)

And all through this process of primary doctor, then to the Ear,Nose Throat doc, then the oncologist and the radiation oncologist we were in control of his treatment. We even asked for some early testing so his PET scan could be in Dec. so insurance would pay since we had already met the deductible.

He is doing great btw. He had an appointment last month and the doctor said, come back in Aug. just to check.
His PET scan said the cancer was "resolved"

7. Wonderful!

19. Good to know your hubby had a great outcome.

8. The key word here is "decisions."

Cotton and the Reeps plan, literally, to take away
the decision from most Americans.

They will give them so many really bad choices
that it won't take "smarts" to make a decision,
it will take a miracle.

9. it's just republican BS, that I don't think will work except for their stupid base

[matt819]

10. And they decision will he to give it a pass

Because without the aca and credits I can't afford it.

[Ilsa]

11. Sen. Cotton: I've decided I want healthcare.

Is that all there is to it? Can I have it by deciding I want it?

Or is it not available to me because I am female?

[DURHAM D]

13. He ain't right. nt

[gopiscrap]

14. what a piece of shit

[moriah]

15. I seriously question the people who voted that POS in's judgment.

I know I certainly didn't vote for him.

[alarimer]

16. Sure, like people "decide" to get sick or run over by a bus.

This argument infuriates me.

I think the Democrats need to add an amendment to the ACA reform bill the requires Congress to use the new ACA and not the gold-plated taxpayer funded system they are one.

See how Tom fucking Cotton likes them apples.

[bdamomma]

17. Repigs are

filthy SOB's, what kind of health insurance do they have??? I am waiting for karma to bite these repigs back hard.

[WhiteTara]

18. He doesn't think women are humans.

The "new" meme passing amongst themselves is that women are merely "hosts" and as such have no say in their own healthcare.
