WOLF: Loudest Obamacare cheerleader wants out
The Washington Times ^ | March 25, 2011 | Dr. Milton R. Wolf

Posted on 03/27/2011 1:48:13 AM PDT by Scanian

Becoming the most hypocritical politician in America is not an easy goal to achieve, but New York’s Rep. Anthony Weiner, a Democrat, is up to the task.

Earlier this year, the Obama administration began rewarding its union friends and others with an escape from the clutches of Obamacare. Now one of the most outspoken Obamacare supporters - the man who actually said, “I wrote the bill … the bill and I are one” wants his own “get out of jail free” card from this abominable law.

Moments of unmistakable clarity may not always find their way to the president’s teleprompter, but occasionally, the curtains are pulled back on “the most open and transparent [administration] in history” to reveal what its footsoldiers think of their own law. This conflict between politicians’ words and deeds is nothing new, of course, nor is the selective enforcement of bad laws.

In 2007, the Association for Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), the defunct leftist group with close ties to President Obama, was a vigorous proponent of the “living wage,” a euphemism for increasing the minimum wage. Long before the organization collapsed in the wake of group leaders exposing themselves as eager enablers of child prostitution and reorganized under a new name, ACORN sought an exemption - its own waiver - from the minimum-wage laws it professed to love.

All these waivers will be the final death of Obamacare.

The equal protection clause will do it in in court.

It’s not that he doesn’t support ObamaCare for everyone else. It’s just that he’s engaged in a “Kinetic single payer exemption mission” for himself.

At this point smart Dems should be- and are - hoping that the US Supreme Court puts this bill out of its misery. Because there’s no way they want to have to defend it to the voters once it becomes law and everyone can see for themselves just how bad it is.

Okay, so we need a waiver for a law that has been ruled unconstitutional in it’s entirety?

What happened to that ruling? Down the memory hole? No one cares? Obama now has accumulated so much power that we just let him overrule 1/3 of the Government?

WTH?

Impeach. Now. The law has been eviscerated and we’re still talking about how to get out of complying.

It’s like we just shot dead an animal, but we’re still running from it, instead of burying it.

There isn’t enough mustard in Yankee Stadium to cover the inflated ego of this hotdog.

Can someone photoshop Anthony Weiner into this photograph (whereever you deem most fitting)?

Cheers!

I’d bet that hot dog is an all BEEF KOSHER frank.

Also, I fear the SC will rule in favor of this crap.

The plan is this: Give all 40 million un-insured waivers then there will be 0 un-insured.
