"We Aren't Stupid": GOP Wont Release Health Care Bill Draft, Report Says



Senate GOPers might almost be done with their draft of the health care bill, but don’t expect to read it soon. Two senior Republican aides, speaking on background, said that it will be finished Monday evening, according to an Axios report. That doesn’t mean it’s ready for publication.

“We aren’t stupid,” said a source. This person said they will keep discussing what will be in the final version.

LawNewz.com reached out to Senate Republicans for comment.

When it comes to this bill, the GOP has been accused of being shady. Such secrecy raised the ire of Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Missouri) who put the GOP on blast Thursday because no health care hearing on the new bill has been scheduled.

That smug, ignorant, hateful man needs slapped. They are sure letting us know today that there is virtually no law that will not be broken, and not a single sh*t will be given to the American people by this GOP.

If your shit doesn't stink, then publicize the bill. if it's so awesome, publicize the bill.

Somebody needs to find the text of this piece of crap and get it published.

The GOP might secretly pass their heinous bill... but once people start getting sick, and going broke and even dying - they've got no one but Republicans to blame. Are Republicans suicidal? homicidal? Self-hating? World-hating? WTF Republicans?? You do realize your very own supporters will be dying, don't you??
