Even after several catastrophic versions of the Senate Republican health care bill died, Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) is still courting disaster, considering even worse options, such as a sweeping repeal of Obamacare without any replacement. Why is Sen. Portman even considering bills that are worse than versions he has come out against earlier. Albeit, his previous opposition has been lagging, only coming out against a bill after enough other Republican senators have come out to kill the bill. Where is Sen. Portman’s leadership? Sen. Portman has the ability to end this health care deconstruction by just saying he will not support either anything resembling the previous version he opposed or a sweeping Obamacare repeal, particularly without any replacement! As the senate Republican health care bill only gets worse, what is he waiting for? Sen. Portman like to call himself an “independent” senator, willing to do the right thing even if it requires him to buck party lines. Well, Mr. Senator, here is your chance. Get to it!
In honor of Sen. Portman’s reckless waffling, I have created the below free poster: “Mean wile, on Planet Portman, the ‘independent’ Republican senator quickly draws closer to a final solution to the problem of health care in America.” Sen. Portman, either stay on whatever planet you are living on, and resign as one of Ohio’s senators, or come back to Ohio and listen to your constituents. End this madness of crashing our health care system!
This is another one of my free posters in my “Parity or Parody in democracy” series. There will be more before the end of it all.
