Cheer for the senate dems, who are obstructing deathcare for all they are worth

[KitSileya]

Both Senator Merkley (D-OR) and Murphy (D-Conn) have 100+ amendments each ready to slow the passage of the deathcare bill, and pretty much all the others are using procedure to their advantage. Democratic senators are fighting for the people, and they are fighting hard.

1. Great Strategy!

And if the Republicans restrict the number of amendments each Senator can offer, they can pass them to their colleagues to introduce. Brilliant!

6. Should they advertise that the purpose of the amendments is to slow the process down?

The Repubs didn't advertise that as their purpose when they proposed 200 amendments to the ACA and then not one Repub voted for it.

10. Thanks to our wonderful Democrats!

They're fighting the good fight for all of us. Yes, including the Deplorables, who are too stupid to appreciate them.

12. Ah, the bitter taste of Republican medicine stinging their own tongues this time around

I still expect them to tear at their hair and rip their clothes in fake outrage. But to me this is very sweet tea.
