Shocking video shows Bronx man when he slips into coma after nine hours of neglect at hospital

Imagine going to the emergency room (ER) only to end up 'dying of neglect?' Well that's what happened to one NYC man. 

As soon as I read the headline, I said to myself I bet this is a 'city run hospital.' Well, sure enough when you read the article, it was indeed a city run hospital. Those are basically for the poor in urban areas.

So there's a perfect example of 'Obamacare!' Working really great, don't you think? And just think- the government has made it mandatory for 'pay for this crap!' Unless of course, you're more affluent.

Thankfully I don't need to depend on that Obamacare trash. I have 'real insurance.' But it shouldn't be like this. No one should 'die' from neglect at any hospital! No matter what your income is, this should not be happening. I hope that family wins a major lawsuit from that hospital.

Speaking of 'Obamacare,' the idiot GOP who came into power promising to 'repeal and replace' have done- NOTHING! I'd read somewhere shortly after Obamacare had passed that once the GOP were in control, they wouldn't touch Obamacare- due to the 'power' it gives them.

Well, time has proven this out to be true. The GOP isn't EVER going to do anything about Obamacare. At least not with the bums who currently serve. Should the American people stand up and throw these bums out, then and only then does America have a chance to be spared from Obamacare.

Then maybe we will at least hear less stories like this one.

Just in: Senate Vote Result on Repeal of Obamacare...

The results have just been released, and the Senate vote to "repeal Obamacare..." has FAILED!"

All this, despite even a 'provision' to allow for up to 2 years to come up with a "better plan," and yet the vote has still FAILED!

I'm going to predict right now, the Republican party is going to be in 'big trouble' come next year when the mid-term elections occur. As it currently stands, the GOP 'owns' BOTH the House and the Senate (along with the presidency).

Yet, with all the 'in-fighting' among GOP lawmakers in both the House and the Senate, and now yet another 'defeat,' there's going to be a price to be paid by the republican party.

Never mind the democrats. They've done nothing but perpetuate this entire false "Russia-gate" narrative, and just as bad have been nothing but "obstructionists!" The partisanship in Washington is at an all time high, and I would put ALL the blame on both Hillary Clinton ("Resist") and Obama, now a 'private citizen' who's actively been working behind the scenes to "oppose Trump" which is unprecedented in the history of the United States when it comes to 'former presidents,' whom have traditionally had 'nothing to say' with respect to their successors.

But of course 'Obama' has NEVER been your 'typical' politician. And his own actions, as "president" showed all along his 'dislike' for his own country. Why Obama was never "impeached" (as during his 2nd term in office) the republicans ran BOTH the House and Senate, ironically (understatement) having taken back control on their "promise to repeal and replace" Obamacare!

So, just as President Trump stated only yesterday, the Republicans came into power on the "promise" of repealing and replacing "Obamacare," and have failed (miserably, I might add). I'll take it even a step further by saying, they haven't even 'tried,' until Trump won the presidency! So much for these Republicans "promise!" Is it any wonder why politicians have such a 'low approval rate?'

I think not.

Get ready for all hell to break loose as the president learns about the results to today's Senate outcome. One thing I think we can all be sure of is Trump will most definitely 'speak out' about his own party's failure to 'keep their promise.' And while theses GOP "idiots" in the Senate (and House) probably think 'most' have forgotten just how and why the republican party was able to re-take the House, and the Senate, I'm sure many Americans have not.

Yet, in another unrelated vote, the House has "passed" various "sanctions" targeting Russia, Iran and North Korea. I don't know about you, but I think "health care" is just a little more important than these 'stupid sanctions' that most Americans could probably even care less about.

It was only days ago that this year's Congress was named as being one of (if not) THE "most unproductive" Congress in over 160 years. I've said it before, and I'll continue saying it until it happens, the GOP is in 'desperate' need of new leadership in both the House and the Senate. Paul Ryan (Speak of the House) and Mitch McConnell (Senate Majority leader) have both proven themselves totally at odds with not only the American people, but with their own president.

Trump: ‘Obamacare is Death’

It's 'D-Day' for the Republican party! President Trump has had it with the republicans inability to at the very least come up with enough votes to "repeal" the monstrosity known as "Obamacare," also known as "socialized medicine!"

The republican party ran upon "repeal and replace," several years ago already, which ended up allowing them to take back control of the House of Representatives during Obama's second term in office, and to date- have done 'NOTHING!'

On top of this, many GOP candidates won their seats, or re-election on the 'coattails' of President Trump, yet have been acting like a bunch of spoiled brats. Pointing fingers at everyone, but themselves. Should they 'fail' to at the very least "repeal" Obamacare, look for the republican party to 'lose the House,' come next year during the mid-term elections (2018).

This is why congress has such 'low approval numbers.' The American people have had enough of these politicians running on a 'pledge,' and never delivering on their pledge once they win their election. This is also why Donald Trump has been as successful (love him, or hate him). At least no one can say he's not 'kept his promises.' Of course some of this involves his own party 'working with him,' rather than against him.

Here's the article.

Conservatives target Congress, not Trump, after healthcare collapse

I'll let this post 'speak for itself,' as Hugh Hewitt has done a nice job of saying what needs to be said. h/t: Hugh Hewitt

 "People are furious. And not one ounce of it is directed at Trump,” Meckler said."

This article is about the debacle GOP "leadership" has caused due to it's inability to at the very least "repeal Obamacare." Damn right, "people are furious!"

Here's the link.

PS, and we ALL know 'who's to blame!'

Doctors, hospitals and insurers oppose Republican health plan

The House of Representatives was taken back out of the hands of the democratic party, back in 2010 due to the 'backlash,' against Obamacare GOP took back the House; in 2012 the GOP took back the Senate. Leading up the this election, just about every GOP candidate ran on a policy of "repealing" Obamacare, and the American people bought into it.

Yet, 3 years later, the GOP is barely doing anything to change Obamacare which republicans pledged to 'repeal.' Back in 2014 when the GOP took back the House, Boehner was 'Speaker of the house.' He wound up giving up his seat due to pressure from the public. Enter, current Speaker, Paul Ryan (whom Boehner personally 'picked' to replace him). So, is it any wonder why the GOP is 'sitting' on doing anything about "repeal and replace?"

The American people need look no further than Paul Ryan (elitist, globalist, RHINO, neo-con).

I'll never forget hearing an interview about Obamacare. I don't recall where it was from, but wish I'd have saved that interview. Anyway, in the interview, I heard this person saying, once the GOP had 'control' of the presidency, and were in a position to 'change' Obamacare, they wouldn't. Why? Because they'd realize just how much 'power' it gave them. It was a powerful interview, and I'll never forget seeing this. Most who read what I post here know I always "back up" what I say, in this case, I didn't keep that information, wish I did. But, it doesn't matter, you're seeing 'resistance' on the part of the GOP 'elite' to make any significant changes.

So, now we have some version called 'Obamacare lite.' Well, this is not what Trump campaigned on. He promised- "repeal and replace," and unless that is what we get (at least those who voted for him), anything less just won't cut it. Paul Ryan is holding up and stalling the Trump administration from getting Obamacare "repealed and replaced."

Pressure needs to be brought to bear upon all the republican representatives who came into office back in 2014, to either get with Trump, stand behind him, or get out of the way. You can bet those representatives will be replaced in the next election cycle. The danger is having a democratic takeover of the House. Now is the time like never before. You've got both houses, the presidency, what is the problem? There shouldn't be. They don't even need 'democrats,' being they're basically irrelevant. Why Trump still doesn't even have his entire 'cabinet' in place is beyond unheard of. Why doesn't the GOP just use the 'nuclear option,' which is currently in place, thanks to former Senate majority leader, Harry Reid. So it was good for them to use? but not good for republicans?

According to this article, "doctors, hospitals and insurers oppose Republican health plan."

Conservatives: Paul Ryan’s Healthcare Plan Replaces Obamacare with Obamacare-Lite

Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan is not Trump's friend! Nor is he doing anything to help Trump, if anything from what I understand this guy is doing all he can to 'stall' Trump's agenda. Yet, you won't hear much to anything about this even on Fox News (because many at Fox) are like Ryan, part of the "Never Trump," crowd.

Thankfully most of those who did support Trump have already known just who Paul Ryan really work for- themselves. H'e a part of the "blue-blood" elite wing of the so-called pseudo-conservative (neo-con) faction of the GOP. Same can be said of Reince Priebus (however it's spelled, could care less, man is incompetent) and needs to be dismissed!

Obamacare-lite? What a joke.  By the way, just look at that picture?! Look at the arrogence, one thing I must agree with former VP Biden is, that he rightfully called this guy, "Shark eyes."
