Graham: Moderate Dems Running Away from ObamaCare ‘Like It Was the Plague’ and ‘Had the Swine Flu’
Posted in: Politics
Asked by Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren why he felt the House ObamaCare bill was “dead on arrival” in the Senate, Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said that it was because moderate Democrats and red state Democrats were running away from the massive government health care takeover bill “like it was the plague” and “had the swine flu.”
There was a reason that you had a 40-seat democratic majority and the bill passed by two votes. Moderate Democrats, red state Democrats ran away from this bill like it was the plague.
$1 trillion dollars of new spending, $500 billion in new taxes, $500 billion-dollar cut in Medicaid for seniors, on top of that, the government option — it was a bill written by liberals for liberals, and moderate Democrats ran away from it like it had the swine flu.
When it gets over to the Senate, it’s going to meet the same fate.
