Go ahead and get it over with. Flame away but I'm drawing up my own waiver and faxing it to every house and senate member, asking them to sign it and return it. I have been MAD as HELL and I am not taking it any more.

Sadly this is exactly what I expected.
Thank you!
I’m with you.
I think it would help matters if you provided some kind of context. For anyone reading this, it's like walking into the middle of a conversation and hearing one line. There's nothing to base an understanding on.
At least it wasn’t the more typical cat image.
You posted a rant with no context and no explanation, and thought people could read your mind.
And you got exactly what you expected?
Free Republic automatically converts URLs into hyperlinks. I’ve never understood why some freepers remove the hyperlink. If you actually want people to open the page, why go to all the trouble of removing the link?
I copied the URL, which was no small task on a cell phone. It copied your whole post, which I then pasted into the location bar, and deleted all but the URL. Then I went to the site and read it, expecting it to explain what you want waived. Apparently you want Obama’s name redacted from Obamacare, so it will be easier to sell to the sheeple.
Why don’t you just say what you mean?
Isn’t that why people post vanities?
I’ve posted a few vanities in my time (but only a few). I always took the time to compose them as much as - if not more than - you would expect from a newspaper of magazine article. If I’m going to ask FReepers to spend their time reading it, I want to make sure they have the background information to understand what I’m trying to get at.
Otherwise, I waste their time, plus my own - and that’s before the extra time explaining everything in the comments that I should have said up front.
You don’t get it?
Cats Pajamas is suggesting that - as a form of protest to Obamacare and the selective waivers given out - she will create a waiver for herself and send it to her congress-critters.
It’s just another form of “I don’t like this” letter to congress.
I still don’t know who Lisa is, or where to find her waiver, but I think I’ve solved the rest of the puzzle.
Apparently you didn’t read the URL she provided. It has nothing to with a personal waiver from participating in Obamacare. It’s all about waiving the association of Obama’s name with Obamacare.
Well actually I wanted to alert that some were trying to remove President Azaziel’s name from the illegal legislation to SELL IT.
As to who Lisa is well I am just one of the as Leona Helmsley put it little people who would like a waiver too. As I cannot collectively bargain for a waiver as the “big people” do then I must do the best I can on my own.
And that’s what you should have led your post with.
Throwing the link in there just confused the message you were going for. As a writing tip, try to keep separate thoughts separate - you can include them in the same article, but start with some lead-in like “On another note related to Obamacare...”
My name is Lisa. I am just one of the - as Leona Helmsley put it - "little people" who would like a waiver from Obamabcare. As I cannot collectively bargain for a waiver as the “big people” do then I must do the best I can on my own. I'm drawing up my own waiver and faxing it to every house and senate member, asking them to sign it and return it. I have been MAD as HELL and I am not taking it any more.Don't just send them your comments, send them your waiver, ask them to sign it. Its put up or shut up time. We are at the crossroads. So what are you going to do?
On another note related to Obamacare, go read this story about advocates leaving Obama's name out of it to sell it:

Thanks for the tip and being nice about it.
No problem. We’re here to help and inform each other, right?
Right except I prefer President Azaziel.
