RINO Lisa Murkowski Sides With the Democrats, Trying to Repeal ObamaCare a Waste of Time…

A heartfelt thank you to Alaska for giving this woman another term.

(The Hill) — Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski on Thursday cast doubt on the manner in which Republicans have attempted to repeal the healthcare law.

Murkowski (Alaska) said that she would vote to repeal the law if a vote was held in the Senate, but she said the enough votes do not exist in the upper chamber to strike the law. As a result, Republicans should focus on other issues such as unemployment, spending and the federal debt and deficit, she said.

“The real question is, how much time do we as a Congress spend on this messaging?” Murkowski asked during an interview with KTVA-TV.

Murkowski’s comments came after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.)assured that his chamber would hold a vote on the repeal bill passed by the GOP-controlled House this week, even though Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has voiced opposition to such a vote.

The Alaska senator — who defeated Tea Party Republican Joe Miller as a write-in candidate in November — mimicked a Democratic argument against GOP repeal efforts; Democrats say that Republicans have gone back on their calls to focus on jobs by holding a healthcare vote as their first major action of the 112th Congress.

    At some point I think we are all going to need the drugs and alcohol the people of Alaska are ingesting …

    Why can’t she just shut up and go away. you stole the election,you proved your a good little Marxist now shut the fuck up and sit down ..

    We are tried of hearing your nails on the chalkboard voice and looking at that Sleestak face is not helping my headache this morning either.

    As per their agreement.

    How the hell else could she get so much union support for her reelection?

    Murky is a mole.

    Does this airhead have any idea how one starts to cut deficits, debt, spending, and unemployment?

    correctly stated MNHawk, those businesses that have money and could hire are not going to when there is insecurity over health insurance increases, Bush tax cuts extended only 2 years and the rising costs of oil – all things that contributed to the aforesaid unemployment, spending and federal debt/deficit.

    She is such a yutz.

    Well, Lisa, Congress spent the better part of two years and still continues to try to sell us on this piece of carp. But they’re dems, so I guess that’s okay.

    Funny, none of the dems ran on ZeroCare last fall.

    Not only in giving her another term, but going out of their way to give her another term. First successful write-in candidate for Senate in how many years? Next time Alaska, do us a favor and just vote in the Democrat. That way Republicans won’t have to take the blame for her shinanagans, and at least we will know from whence the knife came.

    Yes, I never ever heard a single republican campaign on repealing Obamacare. Why it’s almost like the last campaign never happened. Merdecowskeevy is a disgrace to the republican party. She should start her own Narcissist Party and she and Obama and Reid and Peelousy can be the first members.

    Just like Nevada, and Dirty Harry with his MONEY/UNIONS/and all the visits from big names just before the midterms(trips that, we–the taxpayers’ funded, btw), Alaskan’s who didn’t want Murkowski, couldn’t overcome the outside money, and last minute rally to keep her in office.
    Hell, even with all of that last minute push, she didn’t win by that much.

    I don’t even know why we have Primarys, when the LOSERS just keep running until they worm their way back in. Miller used the bulk of his money for the Primary, and HE WON. Murkowski thought she had it in the bag when she lost. Maybe Miller should have waited to run, until the election, and just been the write-in candidate. LOL WE LIVE AND LEARN!!!!!!!!!

    “She needs to be ousted at end of term. Her stance on ObamaCare should seal the deal.”

    She won handily as a write in candidate during a tea party wave. You took your shot and it backfired badly. Suck it up.

  33. comacho says:
    January 21, 2011 at 2:17 pm

    @Tlaloc

    She won by 11,000 or less votes. Joe Miller beat her in the Primary.
    She didn’t win handily, and she did lose the Primary.
    Facts is facts!! She ran as a write-in because she was a poor loser.

    Money, schmoney. SOMEBODY voted for her. Can’t just blame the money – someone scrawled her name on enough ballots to win. And it doesn’t matter that she won by only 11,000- votes or that Miller beat her in the primary. She is now one of the two senators from Alaska, not Joe Miller.

    And those folks live in Alaska.

    To clear one thing up, not ALL Alaskans supported LEASE-A-MurCOWski. She received most of her support from Native Corporations that receive No-Bid Federal Contracts, a scam that Sen. Ted Stevens slid into an appropriations bill AFTER it had been voted on in the Appropriations Committee . Very little of the money these Corporations receives, goes back to the villages the Corp. are suppose to represent. Most have no running water or sewage , they have to shit in five gallon buckets (Honey Buckets) during the winter, while the Corp. Elite buy condos in Hawaii. MurCOWski received $308,000 from these Corporations!!!!!!

    She needs to vote the will of the people that put her in office. Personally I think she knows more about the VECO scandal along with her Dad Frank. The FBI needs to finish what it started and get get rid of the whole family. We are planning some protests at her home and offices her in Alaska. We need to get her out of office. What ever happened to voting on issues by the polls of your people and not by what you think.

  45. Tlaloc says:

    “She needs to vote the will of the people that put her in office.”

    Are you sure she’s not? Remember the tea partiers all went for Miller.

  46. Talkeetnaman says:
    January 22, 2011 at 12:03 am

    Yeah you are right Tlaloc. The Alaska Natives put her back in office. I guees they are all for ObamaCare and abortion. What is funny if that the reason the Natives put her back in office is for all the pork to support their villages. Now the house is not going to give the Natives any money. Probably the biggest group of people in Alaska that use abortion is the Natives. I know many working Natives and they can’t stand Murkowski.

    The Veco scandal you say…that is a deep subject, but what was done to destroy Vecco was an outrage..I’m not going to post about all of this here but I know full well what you are talking about…I vehemently see things from the other-side than you do.

    Btw…I worked for Veco, many did, came to know a lot about them, won’t go into Bill Allen etc…need not write all, but all of this has to do with claims during oil-spill as well, if people in the lower 48 had any idea what all happened during that BS fiasco as portrayed by the msm they still wouldn’t report the truth.

    Someday I may write a book about all of this ~
