HA!....MCD backed the White house down...but guess what?...there are tons of other companies facing the same health insurance issues as Big Mac...so what's Obama gonna do; back down on them all?

The fact is that the free market is reacting to the burdens of socialism and Obama and the Dems can't control that...I got as hunch a lot more companies will put the heat on Obamacare before Nov 2.

Yeah, but this is right out of Atlas Shrugged. I’m afraid my company won’t have as effective a “Washington man” as McDonald’s does.

check and mate.

We passed the bill
You have no idea what it is nor what is in it
We can and will make up the rules as we go along
We'll hammer you for decades as to how you voted for this.

Every pol, D and R should be tried for treason and shot for voting aye to this albatross.

(No offence to albatrossesses)

Isn’t that what’s called a carve out... a political favor in search of support for the overall bill? Better get up to DC soon, cause, not everybody is gunna get the same sweet deal.

“exercise her discretion”

So now we live in a society in which we are subject to the whims of political appointees. My country of birth doesn’t really exist anymore.

If they allow it for McD’s, they have to allow it for every company. It’s that equal protection thingy.

According to our constitution, the President is not supposed to make laws on his own.

“its top health official will “exercise her discretion” in enforcing a new health-law requirement”

Selective enforcement of laws? WTF?

Can I use this as precedent to demand “selective enforcement” of 922(o)? At least that has a loophole wherein the BATFE could be directed to issue permits.

Screw "Flexibility",repeal the whole damn thing!

No incremental changes or tweaking this or that.

Dump the whole socialist takeover,then we move on to other things like the Department of Education.

So is Obama going to re-write ObamaScare just for McDonald’s? Likely blowing smoke up Micky Ds rear for the November elections.

Kind of like they do at the Justice Department.

"...so what's Obama gonna do; back down on them all?"

Good question. He and his ilk are so slimey, I could see them trying to force McDonald's and other large corporations, like Walmart, into accepting unions, in exchange for immunity from his health care plan.

Who wrote a law that allows a single appointed person in the executive branch to actually decide who has to follow the law and who doesn’t?

All well and good for large, politically connected companies. Bad for the mom and pop businesses that compete with the big boys. Rent-seeking corporatism in action, all thanks to the Democratic Party.

G*d damm*t, but government sucks.
