Reid calls special ObamaCare meeting
The Hill ^ | November 13, 2013 | Alexander Bolton

Posted on 11/13/2013 1:12:32 PM PST by jazusamo

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Thursday will convene a special meeting of the Senate Democratic caucus and senior White Officials to discuss the troubled rollout of ObamaCare.

Reid on Wednesday told reporters he would not answer questions about the hundreds of thousands of insurance policy cancellations or other issues until he has further discussions with the White House.

The Senate leader said President Obama called him Tuesday evening to discuss healthcare and other issues.

Several Democrats have signed onto a proposal sponsored by Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) that would force insurance companies to let people keep their health plans if they like them.

Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) said he would have a better idea of what proposals Democrats will push to improve the new law after the Thursday meeting.

Republicans could scarcely contain their glee over the growing Democratic anxiety.

"Obviously panic has set in on the other side," Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said.

On another thread, I said watch Reid, McCain and Pelosi.
Obama has been kicked to the curb on this one.
The RATS are scared and that is when they are the most dangerous.

“Reid on Wednesday told reporters he would not answer questions about the hundreds of thousands of insurance policy cancellations or other issues until he has further discussions with the White House.”

He’s getting his marching orders, and will then remind the communist membership of the Party Line and expect them all to toe it. Then he will come out and say:

“It’s reckless, irresponsible and extremist to let people keep their insurance policies.”

Looks like Obama’s handlers don’t want him to screw this up so they’re meeting with the Rats.

"Obamacare is a wonderful piece of legislation," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said on the Senate floor Thursday. "Let's make it better. Stop carping about this. Get over it. It's the law. It's the legacy of Barack Obama and always will be."

There is a special place at the bottom of the lowest septic tank for the Reid-thing.

I keep wondering if it is human and if we are really supposed to give it the same regard that we would give an amoeba.

Let's just back the Obamatanic ship up and show that iceberg who boss around here.

Okay insurance companies, you were forced to screw your policy holders by the Dems and now they want you to spend a few more millions telling folks it was just a joke, April Fool, gotcha, we didn't really mean it. So just roll over and let the Dems steamroll you again.

After all...it's not like anyone lied! How can someone possibly lie when reading from a teleprompter...a thousand fricking times!

BTW...how is that 30 million, formerly uninsured, new customers burning up your phone lines buying their first ever policies going for you?

Reid owes Cruz an apology.

But Cruz knows if the phone don't ring, it's Harry.

I hear you, I was laughing about the “White Officials.” Should have said “White House Officials.”

The ACA is going to fail if they don’t cancel their individual policies due to a lack of broad base. On the other hand, the Dems are going to fail if they don’t keep their promise that if you like your policy you can keep your policy. Talk about being between a rock and a hard spot?

Maybe they should have read the bill before signing it. LOL.

Without the lie of “you can keep your plan and doctor”,
Obamacare would not be law,
and Obama would not be president after Jan, 2012.
