This is a decent and compassionate Republican. Thank you Senator Collins.

I want to work w/ my GOP & Dem colleagues to fix the flaws in ACA. CBO analysis shows Senate bill won't do it. I will vote no on mtp. 1/3

CBO says 22 million people lose insurance; Medicaid cuts hurt most vulnerable Americans; access to healthcare in rural areas threatened. 2/3

Senate bill doesn't fix ACA problems for rural Maine. Our hospitals are already struggling. 1 in 5 Mainers are on Medicaid. 3/3

Yep. I was there forever too
Obviously Like Trey. Lol i got banned

I guess I really do get overly consumed by situations that seem unjust or events where people argue about topics regarding humans dying without thinking deeper.. anyhow

P&N is a rough bunch sometimes..
Off-Topic is always fresh.
I started there back in 2000 from buying and selling pc parts to temporarily becoming a successful software salesman. I used to scan Craigslist USA for Microsoft and Adobe software.. was very profitable but the market started shrinking fast with the expansion of high speed internet. ^^^ saying that about high speed internet made me think of Jodeke

I myself was born at least 10 years before
Internet
Cell Phone
PC Computers
Microwaves
Had 3-4 channels of tv til I was around 12-13 then I quit watching anyways.



Trip..just reminded me to lookup my Heatware account. I almost joined the TrollHunters long ago.. https://www.heatware.com/u/6056/to
Got one of those?

That's exactly what they didn't want. They wanted to get this done so they could avoid the town halls altogether and do what they normally do on recess which is NOTHING!!!

Groups can still picket their offices, flood their phone lines, stage die-ins, draw TV cameras and mock their GOP Senator for being afraid to face them and for trying to kill their own constituents.

Is it against the law to picket in front of their homes and at every function these people go to?

I called my Senator today (Pat Toomey) to voice opposition against the health bill. I got a recording saying his voice mailbox is full and that's it.

I called my Senator (Kamala Harris) was shifted to the offices of John Cornyn in DC. When prompted to speak to one of his aids I got nothing but his agenda.

It's hard to take anyone seriously when they talk about Trump complaining about a "witch hunt" aimed at him given all the witch hunts he has initiated and endorsed over the years - not to mention the fact that he sat back at his rallies while his fanatics chanted, "Hang the (bleep)!"

The way you want to see something will make it true to you.

He said he hasn't seen any Evidence Trump HIMself coordinated with the Russians.

Why so hard for you to see that you wrap that up to mean the story is fake news...

All it means is that some guy at CNN hasn't seen enough evidence.

This evidence may be only in financial data and classified conversations etc.
