Don’t BAIL OUT Dems on this.

Shove Obamacare down America’s throats and let the chaos play out in favor of R’s in the next few elections.

No exemptions from the consequences of your own idiocies please, Congress.

What, is it a bad thing or something? /s

<<<< A new CBS News poll finds more Americans than ever want the Affordable Care Act repealed. >>>>

Lets call the "Affordable" Care Act what it really is:

The Unaffordable Care Act

Well that's a relief. I was really worried that the congress-critters would be stuck with Obamanationcare like the rest of us.

Obamanationcare is for the little people, not for the ruling class.

There is got to be a lawsuit here. Can gov pass laws that require their compliance and then ignore it because it personally cost them money. I cannot believe someone cannot sue the gov on this one and win. What is next, murder is illegal, but a Congressmen or staffer is exempt from such limits.

Hopefully Sekulow will take this on. I'm sure he will.

Scum like Pelosi don’t even need to carry insurance because they are so wealthy. You know she has her personal doctors on speed dial. Especially the plastic surgeon.

Despicable. Congress and their staff will get a Cadillac health plan paid for by the taxpayers while the rest of us will be paying big bucks to wait in line at the government clinic for third world health care. We NEED a constitutional amendment barring Congress from exempting themselves from any laws they pass.

The whole concept of the employer “paying for” health care is the fundamental problem.

Your employer should no more pay for your health insurance than your car insurance or house insurance.

Compensation comes in many forms. Some employees have company cars, GASP! Is this something employers “shouldn’t” be doing, too?

“We NEED a constitutional amendment barring Congress from exempting themselves from any laws they pass.”

There is an amendment to Obamacare that prevents them from exempting themselves. They are just going to ignore it.

We now have a banana republic - if you can keep it. Oh well, the sheeple will bitch for an hour & NOTHING of any consequence will be done. I’m wondering if there is anything, besides taking toilets out of your owned home, will there ever be a flashpoint.
