(83,773 posts)Now let's just add the cost of repealing Obamacare.
As usual, all 24 Texas Republican congressmen voted for the bill. This means they're part of the joke, but it also means we should remind ourselves that each Obamacare repeal vote has serious costs. Instead of spending time working on bills that could actually help Texans, our Republican congressmen are choosing to waste time introducing new versions of a bill that has already failed 40 times. A report from CBS news found that each Obamacare repeal vote costs taxpayers $1.45 million. So all 40 Obamacare repeal votes have cost American taxpayers a grand total of $54 million. Texas's supposedly fiscally conservative congressmen are the epitome of hypocrisy--they claim to support fiscal restraint but eagerly support spending lots of time and money on a bill that will achieve absolutely nothing.

Thanks for calling the liars, the hypocrites they really are, Cha.
How do they sleep at night or look at themselves in the mirror in the morning? Never mind. I know the answer. They are bloodsucking Vampires that sleep in their coffins and they have no reflection because they have no soul.

It's comparable to having a malignant growth in our government that is destoying itself from the inside out.. and the only thing that can save our country is for it to be cut out.
That's right.. they sleep in coffins and their only thought is where their next drop of blood is coming from.
