Rush on Obamacare Repeal: 'Three female leftest are running the senate.'

[Breitbart] Tuesday on his nationally syndicated radio show, conservative talker Rush Limbaugh ripped Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) and Shelly Moore Capito (R-WV) for stalling efforts in the GOP-controlled Senate to repeal Obamacare.

By losing those three votes, a repeal is effort is out of reach for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and that according to Limbaugh showed McConnell was not in charge of the U.S. Senate. Instead, he said it was controlled by "three female leftists."

"Now we find out the Republican caucus in the Senate is infected with essentially leftist members," Limbaugh said. "Collins, Murkowski, Capito ‐ these three female leftists in the Republican caucus are running the Senate, not Mitch McConnell. Mitch McConnell is not running the Senate. These three women are running the Senate. The conservative Republicans in the Senate are not running the Senate. Three liberal women who call themselves Republicans are running the Senate."

#1 Murkowski and Capito both voted to repeal Obamacare in 2015, when they knew Soetoro would very likely veto the bill.

#2 Nearly all the Pubs voted for a repeal of Obamacare in 2015--48 current Senators voted for repeal and 1 against. List. It will be hard them to justify backing away from repeal now without appearing to be spineless hypocrites.

Whatever happened to "Milquetoast" McConnell? Has he retired?

#3 I would ask what the end game of this nonsense is, if I didn't already know.

#4 Perhaps Repeal & Replace was a bad idea. That would put the GOP label on a failure.

Remove the punishments (against individuals and corporations) from Obamacare and let the market sort itself out. Few have signed up, exchanges are closing, the problem will minimize in time and in the meantime the pain, hopefully minimal, will have the Dem label on it.

#5 The Beltway Rino's have chosen their hill to die on. (Figuratively NSA, figuratively) In some ways, I suspect over the next 6 years nearly every current Republican senator who votes no on repeal will be replaced by someone that gives the democrats screaming nightmares.

It's time for a new Constitution party.
