[low wage earning people — were about to lose benefits because of health care reform]

It is the government way to destroy and rob and kill its own citizens every day a communist government is in power.

I received notice my Medicare Advantage is abolished. That should be a political capital offense.

A guy goes to the Post Office to apply for a job.
The interviewer asks him, “Are you allergic to anything?”
He replies, “Yes, caffeine. I can’t drink coffee.”
“Have you ever served in the military?”
“Yes,” he says, “I was in Iraq for two years.”
The interviewer says, “That will give you 5 extra points toward employment.”
Then he asks, “Are you disabled in any way?”
The guy says, “Yes. A bomb exploded near me and I lost both my testicles.”
The interviewer grimaces and then says, “Okay. You’ve got enough points for me to hire you right now.
Our normal hours are from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm. You can start tomorrow at 10:00 am, and plan on starting at 10:00 am every day.”
The guy is puzzled and asks, “If the work hours are from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm, why don’t you want me here until 10:00 am?
“This is a government job,” the interviewer says. “For the first two hours, we just stand around drinking coffee and scratching our balls. No point in you coming in for that.”

I heard that they may exempt McDonald's from compliance but if they do there will be so many lawsuits that the Government will implode on its on.

My mom received the same letter. Contrary to what Obama said, she can't keep her doctor and since Medicare Advantage is from private insurance, she can't keep her current plan.

Obama needed lie after lie to get this through and for that reason he should be arrested and put on trial for crimes against America.

The report was true and the attempted exemption is true. The WSJ has the letter to prove it and McDonald’s isn’t denying they sent the letter. McDonald’s is worried that if the employee finds out that they won’t have any insurance they will just walk out.

If they allow McDonald’s an exemption, a lot more will follow until everybody is exempted.

Every business the government intrudes on or gets involved with, they ultimately destroy or ruin.

Received notice that as of Jan 1, my Dr will no longer care for STANDARD Medicare patients. Been with his group for years. Now I have to find a new Dr in my old age.

It will be selective exemptions from HHS which will be the reasons for the lawsuits against HHS and the Government.

Every single American was lied to by the Democrats about this.

YOU WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP YOUR CURRENT HEALTH INSURANCE! A LIE

YOU WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP YOUR OWN DOCTOR ANOTHER LIE

YOUR INSURANCE RATES WILL NOT GO UP ANOTHER LIE

OBAMACARE WILL BE DEFICIT NEUTRAL A BIG BIG LIE

AMERICANS QUALITY OF LIFE AND HEALTH CARE WILL NOT SUFFER THE BIGGEST LIE

Last night Hannity was interviewing Ayotte, the senate candidate from New Hampshire. Sitting next to her was John McCain. When Ayotte said she was for smaller government, cutting spending and less taxes, Hannity asked her did that mean repeal of Obsmacare. She emphatically said yes—and McCain smiled and nodded his head in agreement.

I hope this was a signal that the RINOS are ready to get on board and stop this country’s slow, mindless slide into socialism. Sarah Palin endorsed Ayotte in the primary.

The plan is to drive private insurance out of the market with bankrupting regulations then the democrats will ride to the rescue with the public option presto socialized medicine!Of course once the democrats control your health care the democrats can tell you what you can and can’t do with your own body.Don’t be surprised if they want to end the 2nd amendment since guns impact health care costs and their claim children are the most affected(counting gang bangers shot up to the age of 25 to skew the stats). Their dream will finally be achieved the super nanny state and all the control it brings over the unwashed masses.

Since the law requires USPS to NOT MAKE A PROFIT, any losses are made up through rate increases or cost cutting.

There's no government subsidy in this.

Has nothing to do with Obamakkkare.

I'd sign up for some target practice first ~ these pukes forget that oldsters have fewer years left, value them highly, and are very quick to depersonalize and even dehumanize those who try to screw with them.

You really have to think about this. All the federal govt does is encourage poor decisions. Keep making poor decisions until you have a loss and then ask for a rate increase.

Money is a substitute for good decision making.

Richard Nixon came up with this one though.

BTW, the US Constitution puts responsibility for post offices and post roads in the hands of the federal government.

You'll have to fix that problem first.
