You sound like an angry moron.

The best part - well, there's so many good parts, but this is up there - is that the young people who overwhelmingly supported Obama these last two elections are the ones who are getting most mumped by his policies. ObamaCare? eff you, young healthy people. Pony up to help the sick. Social Security and Medicare? eff you, young people, we'll run the programs into the ground protecting the benefits of others. Jobs? eff you and your increasingly worthless college degree. Enjoy your part time job, and hey, you won't count as unemployed!

But hey, there's way more important things at stake, like whether gays can marry of women can have abortions on demand.

So how, exactly, is Congress exempt from Obamacare?

See, while Obamacare was being debated, an amendment was added by Sen. Grassley requiring that all members of Congress and their staff must participate in the healthcare exchanges. The logic being, if this pile of bullshit is so good for the American people, it ought be good enough for Congress. So that became law.

But apparently last week Obama said "meh, eff the law. The law will be whatever I want it to be." So he directed the Office of Personnel Management to exempt Congress from that provision of the law. Except that's not the way our government works, according to the Constitution. We have a legislative branch that passes laws, and an executive branch that enforces them. So once again, Obama has decided that the Constitution is more useful for wiping his ass than, say, serving as our single most important governing document.

Grassley should have come up with cheaper, better, and more comprehensive plans

:lol:
dnr'ed the crap out of that, what did it say?

Basically explains why neocons jerking off to the Grassley amendment are so silly, but then there was this:

Quote
Obama’s solution to the dilemma was to administratively decide that those congressional employees would get their health care through the exchanges but that the federal government would keep up its same level of premium contributions. The law didn’t say the government could keep contributing to their health care, but it didn’t say it couldn’t either.

:lol:

:dunno: The article confirms what I've been saying. A bunch of excuses from liberal blogs about how Our Dear Leader just wanted to make sure members of Congress and their staff continue to enjoy better benefits than the exchanges would provide just affirms my point. The point of the Grassley amendment was that, if democrats insisted that the exchange plans were so great, they should be forced to participate in them. Obama just decided to ignore this provision of the law. Just like he decided to ignore provisions requiring that certain aspects of the law take effect on certain dates. He is ignoring pieces of his own rough ridin' law that he crammed down our throats.

Look ma! I can quote article too!

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324635904578644202946287548.html

Quote
This latest White House night at the improv is also illegal. OPM has no authority to pay for insurance plans that lack FEHBP contracts, nor does the Affordable Care Act permit either exchange contributions or a unilateral bump in congressional pay in return for less overall compensation. Those things require appropriations bills passed by Congress and signed by the President.

But the White House rejected a legislative fix because Republicans might insist on other changes, and Mr. Obama feared that Democrats would go along because they're looking out for number one. So the White House is once again rewriting the law unilaterally, much as it did by suspending ObamaCare's employer mandate for a year. For this White House, the law it wrote is a mere suggestion.

I bet michigancat's email contacts get a lot of emails that read at the end, "if you agree, share this important message"
