The Senate health committee chairman on Tuesday released a statement ending a bipartisan effort to find an ObamaCare fix amid a new GOP push to repeal the law.

"During the last month, we have worked hard and in good faith, but have not found the necessary consensus among Republicans and Democrats to put a bill in the Senate leaders’ hands that could be enacted," Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), the chairman of the Senate health committee, said in a statement.

1. They will never stop, never.

But this means we can breathe for a few days or weeks.

GOP wants to harm you, they are working overtime to do just that.

[mythology]

2. They are stopping work on the bipartisan bill. They are still working on the Graham/Cassidy bill

We still need to be wary.

3. Yes, and one could also make the argument....

the republicans secretly really, really don't want to fix it because it's such an ideal wedge issue.

11. Yes, but Nancy Pelosi said something that

may have been insensitive to an immigrant that one time.

Let's destroy the Democratic Party.

4. The GOP never intended to fix "Obamacare". They need to destroy everything associated with Obama.

Unfortunately they have the power to do so, and they will destroy as many American lives as needed to achieve their goal of destroying any Obama legacy.

6. They're like locusts - they destroy all that they touch.

12. THIS!

Their entire aganda is "Obliterate Obama!" They can't have this uppity black guy leaving a legacy.

5. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 6,000 times, shame on you.

8. You didn't even fool me once!

7. Of course

They want to push that piece of shit sponsored by Lindsey Graham instead.

9. Repukes working for a bipartisan ACA fix was always a joke anyway.

They always knew no fix would've gotten through anyway. The only reason repukes participated in it to begin with was to give themselves political cover for 2018.

10. "...in good faith..."

Everybody on this board now, on three: One...two...THREE!! . . . .
