It’s official Tea Partiers — Republicans are lying to you about repealing the health care bill. Here it is in black and white:
Yesterday, GOP leaders began to use a new phrase to describe their goals for the health reform bill: “Repeal and replace.” Since then, however, GOP officials have struggled to explain whether they want full repeal or just to roll back pieces they oppose.
A senior Senate GOP aide just clarified the leadership’s strategy to me: Continue to pledge and pursue full repeal, to keep the GOP base happy, but only pursue it “piece by piece,” in order to avoid looking intent on simply blowing up reform entirely.
