NRCC Launches New Ad Against Bobby Bright
Does Bobby Bright Know the Definition of Repeal? 

Washington- The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) has launched a TV ad targeting Bobby Bright on his disingenuous stance on Obamacare. While Bobby Bright voted against Obamacare twice, it is now apparent that he might indeed support the reckless healthcare takeover after all. His reluctance to support a repeal of the job-killing, tax-hiking legislation is a clear indication that Bright has been opposed to his party's healthcare takeover in name only. Fellow Blue Dog Democrat Mike McIntyre – who also voted against the bill – has come out in support of repealing the disastrous legislation. This leaves Alabama families wondering: If Bright's truly against Obamacare, why doesn't he want to repeal it?

"Bobby Bright has been less than truthful with Alabama families with his disingenuous stance on Obamacare," said NRCC Communications Director Ken Spain. "After voting twice against the bill, one would think Bright would have no problem repealing legislation that will lead to Medicare cuts, tax hikes, abortion funding and budget-busting government handouts. Does Bright not understand the definition of repeal or is he just hoping Alabama families won't notice?"

Transcript: Re… ra… repeal. To reverse a law that has already passed. Repeal. See, that's not hard to say at all. But Bobby Bright can't say the word ‘repeal' – even when we're talking about President Obama's government takeover of healthcare. Bright says, "I believe it's premature to discuss repealing a bill that was just passed…" Bobby Bright: He's supporting Obamacare now – he's just hoping we won't notice. Tell Bobby we need to repeal it now. [Disclaimer] The National Republican Congressional Committee is responsible for the content of this advertising.
