Looks like we’re not the only ones who thinks obamacare sucks. Apparently, so does congress…So if it’s so good, why did congress opt themselves out of it? Should they not be beholden to the laws they create for us? Apparently not. They must know it sucks ass and therefore made sure they were subject to it.

You mean actually hold the lawmakers to the same standard they want all of us to live by?

UNTHINKABLE!

And you’re also a racist for opposing Obamacare. I’m reporting you to the proper authorites. Expect the Gestappo at your door shortly.

Good one. John Corwyn Senator from Texas put forth an amendment during the discussions in the Senate that would force all congresspeople to be on the plan. Voted down 100% by Democrats. They are elitists that think they know what is best for everyone. Sorry, but I know what is best for my family.

Or if any don’t want to watch,

“We’re not ready to be doing it. But let me remind you, this has been going on for years. We are bringing it to a halt. The harsh fact of the matter is when you’re going to pass legislation that will cover 300 [million] American people in different ways it takes a long time to do the necessary administrative steps that have to be taken to put the legislation together to control the people.”
