If the rule of law doesn’t apply Obamacare, illegal immigration, etc., why should it matter when King Hussein’s minions commit massive voter fraud to steal the House and maintain the Senate in 2014?
The editors of The New York Times, Mr. Obama’s most reliable sycophants, are deep in mourning, but working furiously to apply more rouge to the corpse before it turns the parlor too fragrant for a wake. It’s summer, and they’re running out of ice.
The “downside” to the delay in implementing the employer mandate is that it gives Republican critics the facts and figures, the “ammunition to portray the health care reforms as a failure,” The Times says. But not to worry, the year’s delay decreed by the president will allow the Internal Revenue Service time to figure out “how this mandate will work … it is more important to do this right than to do it quickly.”
It’s ever so reassuring to know the IRS is on the case.

I think it’s odd that they can just delay this, assuming the bill has an employer mandate start date of 1-1-14 written into the text of the bill. You can’t just waive that date, but apparently Obama is going to get away with that.
Also, remember that Obamacare was passed in March 2010. We were told that different pieces of the law were being phased in over a period of years, so as to give everyone plenty of time to adjust to the new law.
So we’re saying that over three years later, the Obama administration is so incompetent that they haven’t been able to administer the employer mandate piece of the law in these three years? And so they need another year to do so? Is this for real or is it satire? What does this say about the competence of the Obama administration?
And what does it say about the media, Republicans, and everyone, that the president announces a delay in a major piece of this law, and nobody is calling him out to say that there is a firm start date in the law, which can’t just be waived at the whim of the president?
“Jim Manley, a former senior communications adviser to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid [said]...’What you’re going to see is Republicans seizing on this for everything it is worth.’”
One can only hope. God knows, Sen. Reid would never do a thing like that. Wouldn’t even THINK of it!
Eating sushi with a lib in Little Tokyo L.A. last Friday—after telling him my GGGgrandfather fought at Gettysburg, I said in a whiny voice “Please, All I want is my ObamaCare!”
Silence.
Sometimes sushi’s alright.
‘Yes, I supported Obamacare but thankfully we delayed it to protect MY POLITICAL CAREER from how bad it is’?”
There, fixed it!
While the enforcement deferral might elucidate one of many Obamacare fallacies, the GOPs belligerent amnesty efforts will surely counteract any Republican favorability for 2014.
The silly stupid party.
