This plan only outlines a replacement if the Supreme Court strikes down the subsidies in certain states. What Ted Cruz said in his speech was he would repeal the entire law page by page. Where is the replacement bill for the entire ACA.

"Three top Republicans are pushing an alternative to ObamaCare that would scrap the law’s mandates while keeping the tax credits that help low-income people buy private insurance coverage."

Guess this means the Tea Party's other favorite( another nut job), Bachman will be your vp choice. Wackos United. Bring it on!






But God spoke to Bachmann personally, and told her to run for POTUS.

Actually, Cruz also said God spoke to him and told him he was meant to be President.

WOW !!!!!!!!!! God spoke to both of them - who woulda thunk it???

And every loyal democrat should vote for Cruz in the primary. Just hope that he can hold on until he gets to Florida, and dems could put him over the top and on his way to being the nominee.

Be advised that FL has a closed primary, but it is very easy to switch parties for this one event. Print out a form on-line, sign it, and mail it in. Easy.

That is exactly right. Let's all do it.

And just in case you hadn't guessed, I have zero respect for the Tea Party. I believe they represent the very worst in this country!

Folks, this is what typical liberals think of mainstream Americans.

No, the Tea Party is NOT "mainstream America". They are the right wing nut cases. If you Google it, you will find that the political leanings of the vast majority of Americans is just slightly right of center.

It does not take too much to take that voter to slightly left of center into Democratic territory.

Millions of people won't have health care if Ted Cruz gets his way, but Cruz won't be one of them. Obamacare allowed Cruz's wife to quit her job, which is so startling since Cruz singlehandedly shut down the government for 13 days last year, just to end Obamacare.

Only a liberal would think obumblercare causing the loss of millions of jobs is a good thing. Do you realize that Senator Cruz has government health insurance that allows his wife to be covered on his plan? Why in the world would they choose an overpriced ACA plan?!

Because that is the choice for members of congress, no more government health insurance plan for them.

It's amazing that with the loss of millions of jobs, the unemployment rate has dropped to 5% from 10%, where it was when President Obama was sworn in back in 2009.

This is the first time I've heard that republicans have a replacement plan for Obamacare. Can you expand on how this health care will be differently provided?

The biggest difference will be "if you like your health insurance, you can keep your health insurance." The next biggest difference will be "if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor."

You're dealing with a democrat. They expect someone else to do the work.

You know the old addage:

figures don't lie but liars figure!

Statistics and polls and surveys can be manipulated/twisted to make any case or any outcome needed.

So the Bureau of Labor Statistics is 'manipulating/twisting the numbers? The same agency that has reported the jobs numbers since these numbers were recorded. Isn't there some congressional oversight for such chicanery?

So you are saying that this administration controls all the congressional oversight committees? Doesn't the GOP control both the house and senate?
