This says that Congress believes ObamaCare is broke. (Not exactly a news flash)

But, it also says that the House had to go along with this, meaning it had to proceed under the Hastert rule....a majority of REPUBLICANS had to support it at some point earlier in the process.

The ruling elite shows its scorn for normal people.

They extract money from the working, productive people for their exorbitant lifestyle.

They make laws for normal people, and not for themselves.

Will the brain-dead public notice and give a danm?

The law says Congress and staff are not exempt.

SO, they just agreed to ignore that I guess.

"This is exactly why America rightly hates Washington," Vitter charged. "Obamacare's a train wreck, even for Congress. So it gets fixed -- for Congress only. What the flip about fixing it for America?"

I honestly don't have anything printable to add to that.

Their constituents hsould be waiting for these bastards with hot tar and feathers.

We ahve done this to ourselves. As long as incumbency is a given for elected Congressional and Senatorial officials, they will remain the Houses of Lords.

In a special 'before-it-was-ever-a-law' deal I exempted myself.

I don't obey laws made by the lawless. I don't even consider them guidelines.

When it comes to Congress Boehner can do more than pass meaningless Obamacare repeals.

Let’s use the five week recess to make it a hot August for Congress critters when they are back home. Americans should be incensed that Congress gets a special deal while the rest of us get the shaft.

The Politburo always gets better medical care than the peasants. Doesn’t everyone know that by now?

I seem to recall that they make an income of approximately 4 times the average family of 4 income in the US. Yet, they admit that it is unaffordable to the upper class while forcing it down the working class’ pocketbook!

These people are sickening.

Every single Dumbocrat should have to answer for this at every townhall, since they are the ones who voted for it, as well as RINO leadership, Boehner, McConnell, Cantor, McCarthy, who seem to be so good at making deals with our Dear Leader: Amnesty, Benghazi, Obamacare.
