Turns out Republicans are actually the most dangerous and wide-ranging pre-existing condition.
Begin with defeated GOP Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker.
He has certainly had himself a big legacy day, what with hissurprising predictable signings of all his parts secretly-drafted 'Revenge of the little men' power-grabbing bills - -
- - now capped off with this additional ideological win at your expense that was also aimed at the Obama presidency Republicans are dedicated to erasing:
Just to rebalance your relationship.
You then will remember that Walker gave J.B. Van Hollen, the Wisconsin GOP Attorney General at the time, authorization to join the lawsuit which was 'won' today immediately after Walker took the oath of office in January 2011. I'd noted this scenario recently when writing about Waker's deceptive tweeting about how he was pledged to insure Wisconsin residents' pre-existing medical conditions - - a central element in Obamacare which Walker and has just helped further undermine:

Federal judge rules that the Affordable Care Act is unconstitutionalThe court ruling would be like finally getting your bad acting ex to comply with a court order to leave your house after eight years of damage and stress, but who on the way out the door opens the gas burners on the stove and places one last call to your insurance agent to cancel all your insurance.

...just as Walker dropped out of the 2015 presidential race after bashing Obamacare for months he'd bragged that he was the Anti-Obamacare Governor from his first moments in office. "Literally."
Walker and other Republicans have been battling the Affordable Care Act since its inception. In Tuesday's speech, he said that "literally moments" after taking his oath of office when he became governor, he turned to Wisconsin's then-attorney general and authorized him to join a lawsuit challenging Obamacare.Of course, Walker, and GOP legislative leaders promised to pass a bill in the just-concluded lame duck session to guarantee coverages for pre-existing medical conditions in Wisconsin, they never passed any such bill - - just like they never passed a bill in the lame-duck session approving the Kimberly-Clark subsidies Walker yesterday announced he'd done administratively - - because the lame-duck session was never intended to do anything but hand Walker the 'Revenge of the little men' bills which reduced incoming Democratic Governor Tony Evers and incoming Democratic Attorney General Josh Kaul's stature and powers.
