PORTLAND, Maine - Feds Tuesday granted Maine a waiver of a key provision in President Barack Obama's health care overhaul, citing the likelihood that enforcement could destabilize the state's market for insurance.

This thing gets more and more UNCONSTITUTIONAL as it goes on. Besides the long-standing fact that the Govt can’t force you to buy something, the enforcement of Obamacare, and the waivers issued, are becoming nearly random.
Obama and Eric “my people” Holder happened, along with a bunch of activist liberal judges.
This is a golden opportunity to bury all the other dead-weighted liberal ideas along with it.
Unfortunately, that won’t happen. Every level of our society, especially governments, is infected with “liberal ideas”.
Can We The People file a class action suit against Obummer?
The revolt this stupid piece of legislation has unleashed is truly heartening. Maybe it’s possible to undo liberal initiatives after all. Too bad Wilson, Roosevelt and LBJ weren’t as incompetent as Obama and his congressional stooges.
Liberals all get waivers from ObaminationCare.
Time to convene a Death Panel on the entire law.
It really is all in the details. Thanks for providing those.
The 250-page Republican bill would have allowed insurers to sell in all 50 states.
Barack Obama carried Maine with 58% of the vote in the 2008 elections, and 52% of voters in the state now approve of the job he is doing... rasmussenreports.com
Three local chapters of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU)--whose political action committee spent $27 million supporting Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election--have received temporary waivers from a provision in the Obamacare law. The three SEIU chapters include the Local 25 in Obama's hometown of Chicago. nation.foxnews.com

You don't have to be a Supreme Court Justice to see that this isn't fair. Maine should pay just like the other 57 states. So should the SEIU.
Put it out of our misery!
.....and now you know why....quid pro quo.
This opens up another constitutional challenge that excises have to be uniform among the states.
Obama, the democrats, unions and Obama TV make the laws however they want. All of TV supports him and idiots who watch TV empower him.
Draconian laws don’t tolerate waivers or exceptions or blinking terribly well. This means the dems are basically standing there with just their ***** in their hands as Santino Corleone put it, and they don’t have any policy at all.
Why should we secede? Kick them out!
Yes they do. One of the first waivers was the united federation of teachers. Only 361,000. They are bigger then CIGNA. The unions have hijacked America.
Yes you can..you can also call a state grand jury and nail those congresscritters in your state who voted for it.
You’ll have to find the rules for Grand Jurys in your state.
