Boehner, scrap the entire law, AP

[itssme]

bozo's eyelids are heavy looking...I pray one day he screws up his “medication” intake, and then it's bye-bye to this world and on to his Maker.

[Rusty0604]

Exactly. They have been blaming the insurance companies already.

[JudyinCanada]

And who is going to compensate the companies for all of the time and paper involved in this fiasco?

If the insurance companies don’t comply, they’ll surely be blamed for everything.

And just how long is the extension? Until the 2014 elections are over and nobody has to worry?

[MisterI]

His right eye is awfully twitchy.

[Syncro]

Chose the path to be the least disruptive

LOL!

[Hoodat]

I just screamed at the TV as I walked through my break room at work. This entire press conference is all about how this affects Obama. It has nothing at all to do with how this affects the average American.

I was especially galled when I heard him say that there are some Americans out there who need to have their hand held as they go through this process of signing up. In other words, it is our fault that we aren't able to navigate their broken website. What an ASSHAT!

[LachlanMinnesota]

I did not know of his stateemnt that he thinks its illegal too. Well, I guess that does it then.

How about an effin lawsuit?

[RetiredArmy]

Through next year? Oh, right, through the ELECTIONS in Nov 14. I get it now.

[nikos1121]

How in the hell, people, tell me. How in the hell can a president CHANGE a law without congress? Please tell what the frig is going on in this country? Is this guy a KING? Is this like a royal edict?

I am so sick of this worthless POS.

[nikos1121]

Yeah...Ted Cruz was right wasn’t he. He was right also, and had great timing, to start the debate on this.

You hear that John ahole McCain...and The Jerks Cronyn and King...and don’t forget Chris Christie.

[itssme]

Artcore, didn't you get the memo that states that the battle cry is NOT “dooooooooooooooooomed”, that winners don't cry out “dooooooooooooooooooooed” every time they hear something that puts fear in their hearts. Think positive thoughts and don't clutter your mind with negatives. Think in terms of what you CAN do to win this fight of our lives and DO IT! Join up with like minded people who believe as you do in the Constitution, our Liberty and Freedom. Do soldiers in battle just lay down on the ground and say “we're doomed” when the battle's not going their way? Take courage from your fellow FR’s who are fighters, and plug away in their quest to win this war of our lives.

[LachlanMinnesota]

And where is the opposing party to challenge this in court?

Crickets, interrupted by words.

Saying it is illegal is not enough. The opposing leadership, Boehner and McConnell should be bringing suit to stop this as we speak.

I know McCain will go along with this, as will Graham. They like dictators that like them.

[matt04]

Over the last 6+ months he has really began to show signs of physical/mental issues.

[SecondAmendment]

I just checked one of the PinkoCommieLib sites and they are having grand-Mal seizures over this.
They literally want a dictatorship now.

It might be a good time to stock up on some lead, copper, and brass hardware ....

[matt04]

Hoping Rush would ignore the speech for today?

[LachlanMinnesota]

I wonder if the soon-to-be-anointed Jersey Fats thinks that this is a legal step for the President, and if the bombastic slab will boldly step forward with a court challenge.

"The other reason it helps him is that it would shift some of the spotlight he’s melting under right now to the GOP, in daring them to oppose a little extra cash for the same canceled policy-holders they claim to sympathize so much with." Brad Dayspring @BDayspring Follow "FYI: "Administration Fix" to #ObamaCare postpones cancellations until after 2014 elections. Not even pretending to hide political motive." John Harwood ✔ @JohnJHarwood Follow "Insurance source: WH fix places "onus on us even tho they know we can't" effectively extend cancelled policies given rates/logistics probs" http://hotair.com/archives/2013/11/14/open-thread-obama-to-make-statement-on-obamacare-at-1135-et/ Hate to admit it, but this was a brilliant move by The One. By postponing the cancellations until after the elections, he's taking all the pressure off the donks. Plus he's shifting the attention/pressure off of himself and onto the GOP and insurance companies. Most people won't understand that insurance companies can't renew cancelled policies at the snap of their fingers. So when the policies aren't renewed, people will switch their blame from The One to the companies. Looks like the Teflon Preezy may slip out of another one.

" He screwed it up so he could fix it then brag about how HE did it."

Yup, he'll blame the Congressional Dems, saying they wrote the bill badly, and now he has to fix it.

It's all about him, and even his buds in the Congress are going under his bus. (not that they don't richlydeserve it).
