http://egbertowillies.com/2013/10/29/bill-pascrell/ I heard a whisper about this in a clip of a republican woman decrying the ACA a week or two ago. Apparently it is true, that the Republicans, rather than rewrite or amend "OBAMA"s law", want to be the ones who are creditted with healthcare reform.
Rep. Tim Griffin (R-AR): It’s a false choice to say it’s Obamacare or nothing. There are numerous proposals including the one I am a co-sponsor of. …
Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-NJ): Are you really serious; after what we have gone through over the last three and a half years? You can sit there and say that you had a legitimate alternative after these years? We’ve gone through 44 votes, 48 votes now of you trying to dismantle this legislation. You call that cooperation? I don’t.
Piece of work politics..who cares how many people suffer from the sabotage and obstruction they have practiced over the last three years? It's all about who looks good. And it has to be Repubs.
