Does anyone know if there has ever been a waiver application that has been denied? Just curious...

Only to those that DID NOT contribute to Obama's campaign ...

How funny. They make and pass the laws and only we the people have to follow them. I DON’T THINK SO!

Happens all the time - Congress passes a law and then exempts itself from it.

Case in point - the OSHA law. Congress is exempt. So they don't have to do remediation on their buildings, like the Library of Congress [LOC].

The 3 LOC buildings are inter-connected by tunnels that you can use to travel from one to another. Heating pipes hung from the ceiling are wrapped in exposed asbestos.

And the people that move the books around and such work down there !!!

Okay. . .so only exempt those Congress Critters who voted against it. Obviously those who vote for it think it’s marvy.

Absolutely MAKE every member of Congress, the Executive branch, and the Judiciary and every one of their staff members sign up for ObamaCare as their medical plan from now on.
We hear so much about “fairness” from the Democrats. Let’s let them enjoy their equality with the rest of us.

I tried to contact my Rep. and Senators about their attempt to exempt themselves from Obamacare. Faxes are rejected; phones are off the hook. One accepted my email; the other two don’t even list an email. Scumbags.

"...only exempt those Congress Critters who voted against it..."

Congress should NOT have to put up with the rules they impose on us, they are better than us.
