White House tries to salvage Obamacare, (exempt) Democrats in distress
Washington Times ^ | 11/13/13 | Dave Boyer

The White House scrambled Wednesday to find solutions for the glaring failures in Obamacare as rebellious congressional Democrats pressured the administration over their increasing political predicament.

In a closed-door meeting at the Capitol, House Democrats blasted administration officials over their handling of the Obamacare rollout, and the White House’s failure to address Mr. Obama’s broken promise to Americans that they could keep their health insurance plans.

Top Senate Democrats, meanwhile, were giving more support to a legislative proposal that would allow people to keep their insurance plans. The White House said the proposal from Sen. Mary L. Landrieu, Louisiana Democrat, has more merit than a House Republican plan scheduled for a vote Friday.

The proposed “fix” will be more subsidies using money we don’t have.

“The proposed “fix” will be more subsidies using money we don’t have.”

Yes. Then the Dems will blame the public’s consequences from Obamacare on those nasty Republican’s in the House for not voting to go along with it. The sad part is, this will probably work with the LIV.

This is the damndest law I ever heard of.

When has a law ever been passed with so many regulations and loopholes and changes as it goes along without a vote from the people who passed it.

This isn’t a law —it’s a maze, and every hallway of the maze leads to a dead end.

Complete repeal of this nonsense is the only acceptable solution.

When the CR and Debt Ceiling come up again in Jan. we should do like obama did--no negotiation, just repeal!
