Here are all the reasons the White House has given for firing FBI director James Comey

[Earth Wind and Fire]

Yes many have accused the previous administration of such.

As I said, same as the old boss.

Why doesn't Trump be a leader and publicly task the House with getting his tax reform plan enacted? Why doesn't he take to Twitter and complain about the RINO's not carrying out his agenda? Why doesn't he bring it up in interviews?

I guess he assumes people have enough sense to know that.

 

[Reynolds]

I wouldn't give him an inch. Why so he could implement a medical program designed to screw Americans who have pre existing conditions? We were there with Obama now we got another boss......same as the old boss.....but this guys white.

People with preexisting conditions are already screwed. My friend and his wife pay over 14k per year now and have, if I remember correctly, 5k each deductible. He is already screwed. He says " I don't know what Trumps plan will do, but it can't be any worse."

My guess is that he's incompetent and doesn't know how to get a bill through Congress.

It is not really his job to get a bill through congress.

I Remember that well. It does not change the fact that legislation is the job of the legislature, not the President. I am a strict constructionist.

Is that what he campaigned on? Need I remind you what he said while on campaign mode.

Well of course the nuts-and-bolts drafting and passing of bills is the job of the legislature, but the President sets the agenda and proposes a budget. Presidential candidates campaign on what they are going to do--build a Wall, deport illegal aliens, impose travel restrictions, cut corporate and personal tax rates, etc. Once they get elected their job is only beginning. They have to garner support for their legislation and LEAD.

I think his plan will make coverage for them better. It definitely is not making it worse.

Brother, I cant think & hope for it to get better.....my wife has cancer & blood clots from it. I have to know it will be better & she will be covered.

Just curious ... how important is precidence?

Precedence is very important.

 

[HawgWyld]

Yea, that's one consolation....however John Kasiech (spelled wrong), & other candidates on the GOP side would have also done the same with the Supreme Court. So now we got this clown who is far more insidious.

Insidious? Perhaps -- but I would argue that he is less insidious than Hillary Clinton and that is what counted on election day.

I was pulling for Rand Paul in the primaries. However, it was obvious I would switch to Trump when he got the nomination. There's nothing worse than a Clinton.

Thanks for the reply. I agree.

I hate to say this because I hate ..... no I HATE her with a passion, however she would not have pulled this "Pre-existing conditions bull......at least she didn't campaign on it! This two bit NYC schmuck out & out lied to us. Now he can join the line of lying thieving snake politicians that are nothing more than con men in my book.
