Are the President, members of Congress, cabinet members, forced to opt-in to ObamaCare? Why not? How much do they pay for their plans? Are their medical planning decisions subject to review by outside panels?

. . .

Of course not, but they should be. Each and every one of them.

And those making their health care decisions should never know know that it’s someone “important” waiting on that hip replacement.

NO JUMPING IN LINE.

One of Alinsky's rules (#4 I believe) is:

“Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”

Why isn't Senator so-and-so subject to the rules of ObamaCare? Why isn't Congressman so-and-so subject to the restrictions of ObamaCare?

I see hundreds of regional bumper stickers.

We must ride this angle mercilessly.

If ObamaCare is good enough for us, it's good enough for them.

I can also see something else: a pledge.

"Will you, Senator so-and-so, pledge to live — and to have your family live — under ObamaCare, like ordinary Americans do? Yes or no?"

What conservative interviewers/panel members in the MSM will step up and ask this question of prospective candidates?

If the answer is yes, we have an ally. If the answer is no, why not? What makes you so special, what makes your family better than the families of your constituents, the people you represent?
