3. The GOP could deliver another 19 pager (including cover).

Do these clowns actually believe that we are that dumb to not understand that a bill of this magnitude actually has to be written and would contain content?

4. HR 676 - 27 pages
and written in clear, understandable language.

The Democrats 2,000 page bill? Not a whole lot better than the Republicans 0 pages. With either one the insurance companies come out ahead.

7. You forgot the DOA part.
676 is a "progressive" pipe dream. Nothing more.
