I was thinking how maybe a Democratic win in GA-6 might have been more sobering to the GOP. But now I don’t think it would have made a difference. The way republicans are going about this shows me they know they have a short window of opportunity, but they don’t care. They have a lot of hubris and hubris has brought down many who thought they were invincible. So, even though I was in a morose mood today, I refuse to give up. I’m going to keep fighting for the soul of this country, as long as it takes.

I hope we see months of marching — even angry marching — in the streets. I am ready to throw something.

So they will beat those gremlins back, oh yes they will. They will PURGE this land of all the evil liberals and other un-conformists who won’t labor under the same madness they do.

You guys, you need to be in the streets. Now. No more whining on Facebook and sending unflattering pictures of Trump. That does not do shit. Frankly, it’s demoralizing.
Talk to your friends and allies, and be out there in the streets and parks, with signs. Give the media something to cover. We have to stop TrumpCare, or at least scare the least safe of the malicious Republicans out of voting for it.
Easy for me to say from Spain, I know, but this is taking off like a rocket to disaster. Don’t wait for an organized march. Just go. Take your kids and teenagers. Get people to honk support at you. Put up signs with the local Senators’ and congresscritter’s phone number on them — big enough to photograph by cell phone so those driving or walking by know who to call.
Get out there. The lives and prospects of people you love depends on it. Republicans do not care about you. They want a tax cut, and are willing to gut your health insurance to get it. Stop them. We are the only major democracy with such shit-tastic health care access and affordability, and now they’re destroying what President Obama and the Democrats built, to deliver for average Americans. We have to stop them. Sometimes you cannot rebuild what has been destroyed.

The (bus) drivers in the western city of Nantes had asked to be allowed to dress more casually as temperatures reached 38C (100F) in Europe causing weather alerts across France. When the request was refused, six of the men decided to protest against what they claimed were unacceptable working conditions and donned skirts. “We asked to be able to wear clothing suitable for the high temperatures, but were told we couldn’t wear shorts. Because skirts are authorised, we are wearing them,” Didier Sauvetre, a driver and union representative told the local paper Press Ocean.
I don’t get why we aren’t hearing from the Republican man/woman on the street thing. We only see Democrats protesting this. How in the world could Republicans who will get crushed by the results of this love this junk?

Off topic (sorry) but per CNN, Reuters is reporting that Qatar has been handed a 13-point ultimatum from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, and Bahrain demanding, among other things, that Qatar:
— shut down A-Jazeera and its affiliates
— pay reparations (amount not stated) for the damage done by Qatari foreign policy
— close a Turkish military base in its territory
— reduce its relationship with Iran
— announce and to relations with terrorist, ideological and sectarian organizations including the Muslim Brotherhood, Islamic State, al Qaeda, and Hezbollah
@kindness: You could if you carve out the existing Federal portions, leave Medicare and VA as is. Also I didn’t say we are doing it, I said considering it.
ETA: I do agree it would be a heavy lift, but the Feds current position may make it more likely.
@Amir Khalid: What does Al Jazeera have to do with terrorism? I’ve never heard of Turkey being a hotbed of terrorism so why should Qatar have to shut down its base? This doesn’t sound like an attempt to fight terrorism by Saudi Arabia which is itself a hotbed of terrorists. The vast majority of the 9/11 terrorists were Saudi Arabians. We haven’t forgotten that.

@?BillinGlendaleCA: See and my point was California would need Federal cooperation to enact Single Payer. That isn’t going to happen under any circumstances until a Democrat is sitting in the White House. Wishes don’t get results. Now I think Single Payer is the way to go but I’m not going to act as if there is a chance to get it under the circumstances we have now. And in all honesty, Single Payer would put me out of a job. I work for Kaiser. Honestly when one considers the lay of things right now far too much money is caught up in the many HMOs & Insurance Companies for them to be written off the script entirely. It just won’t happen at a legislative level because lobbying money means more to politicians than votes at the ballot box.
I was thinking how maybe a Democratic win in GA-6 might have been more sobering to the GOP. But now I don’t think it would have made a difference. The way republicans are going about this shows me they know they have a short window of opportunity, but they don’t care.

I’m going to keep fighting for the soul of this country, as long as it takes.
The race in GA-6 shows how the GOP intends to weather out the storms that will hit after they pass this legislation. Namely … they will rely on their fortress districts in the House of Representatives, dump massive sums of dark money into the House and Senarate races where the Democrats raise a credible challenger, and then run on cultural issues and distractions to keep their own party base in line. They believe whatever price they pay will be survivable (and based on past history, the GOP really hasn’t gotten punished by voters for things like government shutdowns and the like … so they are rolling the dice).
And in all honesty, Single Payer would put me out of a job. I work for Kaiser.
Not necessarily. Remember, we’re talking about Single Payer, not Single Provider. Since Kaiser is supposed to be a nonprofit, you guys are probably in the best position to adapt to getting your payments directly from the state instead of from multiple parties. You’d probably lose folks in your billing department, but you shouldn’t lose clinicians.
