WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh July 28th, 2017

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:05.040
<v Speaker 1>March two thousand ten, Obamacare passed without a single Republican vote.

0:00:05.440 --> 0:00:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Republicans told voters they needed control of the House to

0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:12.000
<v Speaker 1>repeal it. Voters responded. November two, two thousand ten, they

0:00:12.039 --> 0:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>stunned Obama by turning Democrats out of office and record numbers.

0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:19.680
<v Speaker 1>They removed Pelosi as speaker. They returned the House to Republicans,

0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:22.959
<v Speaker 1>but it wasn't enough. Republicans sold voters they needed this

0:00:23.160 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Senate to repeal Obamacare. Voters responded two thousand fourteen, they

0:00:27.560 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 1>defied the polls and the pundits gave the Senate to Republicans,

0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:35.480
<v Speaker 1>but it wasn't enough. Republicans sold voters they were helpless

0:00:35.760 --> 0:00:39.080
<v Speaker 1>with Obama holding the veto pen, Obamacare could not be repealed.

0:00:39.479 --> 0:00:43.199
<v Speaker 1>The voters responded. In two thousand sixteen, they defied the

0:00:43.240 --> 0:00:45.760
<v Speaker 1>posters of pundits and the Democrats. Once again. They denied

0:00:45.840 --> 0:00:48.840
<v Speaker 1>Hillary Clinton the White House. They elected Trump, who said

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:52.560
<v Speaker 1>he would sign a bill to repeat Obamacare. Wednesday, July

0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:57.640
<v Speaker 1>two thousand seventeen, holding all the cards, Republicans finally had

0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:00.640
<v Speaker 1>their chance a clean repeal of Obamacare to a vote,

0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Republican Senator Shelley Capedo Lamar Alexander, Susan Collins, Dean Heller,

0:01:05.840 --> 0:01:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Lisa Murkowski, Rob Portman John McCain voted with the Democrats

0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:15.959
<v Speaker 1>to keep Obamacare. The magnificent seven Republican Senators defined their

0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:19.200
<v Speaker 1>own voters, giving them a middle finger. They proudly stood

0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:23.160
<v Speaker 1>with Obama and the Democrats instead of the people who

0:01:23.240 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 1>elected them. It was, and is, the political betrayal of

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:34.440
<v Speaker 1>this short century. M
