Rep. Steve Womack is "terribly disappointed" and admits GOP

Last edited Sat Mar 25, 2017, 01:08 PM - Edit history (1)

hasn't "learned to govern."

Here's the complete quote:
"We haven't learned to govern. It's like ... we are stuck and we're still in the minority, and all we know how to do is vote 'no'. Today we had an opportunity to make the health-care system in this country better, more affordable and more accessible, and we just failed to execute it, so I'm terribly disappointed".

He is an asshat. In 2011, Womack filed an amendment to a spending bill in an attempt to defund Barack Obama's TelePrompTer. Why has been quiet bout 45s? We know!

But I agree. They don't know how to GOVERN. All they know how to do is obstruct. That's what the "Freedom Caucus" did and that's what screwed them.

What they were really doing was trying to force an enormous tax break for the already wealthy and the big corporations and sell out the American people to Big Pharma and Big Medical corporations.
