White House: Items in Your Amazon Shopping Cart Aren't a Sale, but with Obamacare...
Big Government ^ | 11/13/2013 | TONY LEE

Well, they are enrollees....paying customers don’t have to pay until January....

They can play semantics all they want but the rubber meets the road in January when they have to start counting people who actually pay for this service...

Dear White House,
items in our Amazon shopping cart are items we choose to purchase, and we chose to buy them from Amazon, too

unlike your Obamacare mandated insurance schemes, which are forced down our throats and then ENforced by the wonderful folks at our friendly local IRS office

thanks a heap, you bunch of Anti-American commie thugs!
:)

Clinton too. She was just being interviewed but Clinton lied to an investigation. Right on the Obama lie. But see, the MSM is covering his back.
