Good News for a Change: Two More States Move Against ObamaCare
FreedomWorks ^ | 11/29/2012 | Joshua Withrow

Posted on 11/29/2012 11:19:37 AM PST by sheikdetailfeather

Some good news today, as Michigan and Arizona have both made decisions that they will not be setting up a health care exchange under ObamaCare.

In Arizona, Governor Jan Brewer declared yesterday that she will not direct the state government to set up an exchange.

In Michigan, Governor Rick Snyder has been trying to set up an exchange, but Speaker of the House Jase Bolger has declared that he will not bring the bill to establish exchanges to the floor. 3,500 people have already sent messages urging Michigan's top state officials to stand against ObamaCare, and the Speaker is listening. Keep the pressure on Governor Snyder - Michigan residents can Take Action by contacting his office HERE.

Don’t give Bolger too much credit for Michigan. He was apparently for it but was going to be outvoted in committee.

I hope our gov. Rick Scott in Fla. is only humoring people with his “taking a second look” at Obamacare. Geesh!

The question should be why in the he** did those states who are not setting up the exchanges vote for obama in the first place? Romney pounded home that he was going to repeal obamacare - guess all the sheeple heard was birth control, abortion and don’t touch my welfare.

Well, 16, which we’ve got, prevents them from ramming through a constitutional amendment.

34 is the next barrier. If we can get 34, we can ram a constitutional amendment the other way barring this crap. Forever.

“Romney pounded home that he was going to repeal obamacare - guess all the sheeple heard was birth control, abortion and don’t touch my welfare.”

Perhaps the ‘sheeple’, saw this video.

Interesting, I did not know this either. Can you give more details on our ramming through a constitutional amendment. What would it bar?

thanks

I seriously doubt the sheeple saw that video. They don’t do research - they only listen to the talking points given them by the media and obama.

Anyway, Mitt “evolved” since this debate. Hey, if dear leader can evolve on issues, then so can Mitt.

Article 5 of the US constitution.

Two thirds to send a Constitutional Amendment to the House and Senate - Three fourths to ratify. Something to the effect of, “the fundamental freedom of the United States will forever bar all fines, penalties and punishements levied against citizens of the United States for failure to purchase health insurance.”

Bolger caved the right way. Snyder is worthless.

Combination of blacks, academia people living in a bubble, conservatives who stayed home, and because Romney somehow "let Detroit go bankrupt." (eyeroll)

I didn't vote for Bacrock.

Snyder irritates the hell out of me because he does good and bad at the same time.

He wants to expand natural gas drilling and set up a state “strategic reserve” then turns around and says he wants to keep dumping money into wind power.
