To: Cincinatus' Wife
This sad episode reminds me of the traveler who came across a talking snake at the edge of a river.

The snake asked for a ride across and the traveler, being so enthralled by the notion of a talking snake and the riches he might gain, gave him a lift. As soon as they reached the other shore, the snake gave the traveler a fatal bite. As he lay dying, the traveler asked: "why? I gave you a ride across the river." To which the snake answered: "you knew I was a snake."

The insurance industry knew Obama was a snake. They were enthralled by the notion that Obama could line their pockets with this government mandate.

Very well put.

And because of their lack of morality in the beginning, I hope they lose their ass trying to straighten out the mess the got us into.
