a Republican is saying that Senators will eventually find
Jesus and defund Obamacare
good write-up about this on progressive populous dot already the video is from
CNN
this is a tea party-backed republican congressman from Ohio his name is Jim
Jordan
he was on CNN talking about defunding Obamacare in talking about to
while you know Jesus and stuff like that and here's what he had to say
well i i would just point out Jake there a lot republicans just two weeks ago he
said we're going to go to war with Syria and today we're not
so look what that with when the american people get engaged
they have a way of making elected officials
see the light find the Lord and do the right thing this bill's the right thing
I really like this I not only does he think that all of a sudden geez this is
just going to
light the way for democratic senators to defund Obamacare
I'm just not fully understanding how
a why would Jesus where exactly what teaching
I'm not an expert on Jesus Louis you know that I admit this
but is the is the Jesus side
love health care that we should not have a system which makes health care more
affordable for more people
but rather should have a system that based on
the amount of money the family you happen to be born into has
and the economic and social and cultural opportunities that you have growing up
you just might not be able to access care and it should be the ad right
a for-profit insurers to deny you that care that's jesus that's the teaching of
Jesus I don't I don't remember that part
I'm pretty sure Jesus would want everyone to have health care I'm pretty
sure Jesus would behind single
be here behind single-payer healthcare national plan that covers everybody
but I you know I'm I guess I'm not a biblical scholar know neither one of us
is a biblical scholar but I really don't think that the situation that would be
the the status quo that republicans like Jim Jordan
want to push is the one Jesus would be signing up for
you know I think something else here is that Jesus doesn't really get sick so he
doesn't want to have to be forced to pay for health care
I you know he doesn't want it he doesn't want to get taxed at
whatever that small taxes you don't have health care yet listen to the amount let
you let's let's explore that Lewis
we have worked with in Jesus we're talking about a man
that you can't even kill okay you can kill him
you can do things to him that would kill normal people and he comes back to life
he doesn't need health care
and his position would still be one that we have to provide health care
to everyone it's amazing that the message if Jesus
is being perverted by individuals like republican representative Jim Jordan
amazing so there it is
total republican implosion on the Affordable Care Act it will not be
defined did
we r only seven six six or seven days away at this point Louis from when
people can begin to set to enroll
in the exchanges that will take effect on January 1st
let's see let's see what happens we're giving it a chance
let's see if what republicans have been predicting for years takes place
or let's see if it improves the health care situation a little bit
