Max Baucus Says He Fears Obamacare Is Headed For 'Huge Train Wreck'

Good times.

 

[Fishak]

Max baucus is a decent dem. Sad to see him leave. Now the only demsleft are sandle slappin tree huggin obama phone givin foodstamp feastin piece of trash anti gun pro gay faggots who spend my fucking tax dollars like a fucking 18 year old at a titty bar. Fml. Rant over.

Baucus is one of the reasons we have this ObamaCare mess though.

We need to leave ObamaCare alone. The American people let this thing go through, they need to suffer the consequences. Voters deserve the government they get.

Maybe next time they'll wise up, rise up and stop disasters like this.

In the huffington post no less

Single-Payer is the only workable solution.

Single-Payer is the only workable solution.

Well of course it is, since Medicare is so well-managed and on-budget.

Good times.

If the residents in your state were going to vote you out due to disapproval of your own actions , what would you do?

A quote from your own thread.

The six-term Democrat is also expected to face a tough re-election in 2014. Baucus is still trying to recover from approval ratings that nosedived amid displeasure with the health care law in his home state.

There is nothing nonfunctional stated in your thread about Obamacare. The issue is partisanship. Partisanship is why 1/2 the states refuse to setup the expanded medicaid. Then the Feds will need to step in

I'd cast votes that actually reflect the views and interests of the people who sent me there to represent them.

Instead, we get stuck with these guys who act like raging conservatives in their own districts, then go to Washington and vote like liberal idiots.

That much I will agree with you on and it's a horrible problem. Some of these Congressman / Congresswomen have gerrymandered themselves into a state where they can't be removed from office.
In those cases , those congresspeople do not have to act in accordance with the constituents. The gerrymandering needs to be fixed first.

But I don't think that's the issue here. Health insurance rates in Montana were probably ok and the poverty levels there were probably much lower then urban areas of the country. So those folks probably have little reason to support expanded medicaid.
Unfortunately the cost of health care needs to be spread across the board. Many are going to feel more pain. However emergency room costs and bankruptcies are out of control due to medical care. Something needs to be done

Bullshit.
