Liberals, why do Big Businesses get exemptions from Obamacare, but not individuals (Iraq, wage)

It's also using a stick to enforce personal responsibility.

Yep it would be nice if Democrats would teach personal responsibility. They give excuse after excuse, look at Holder, going after states for voter ID.

Holder looks like a rat with Down Syndrome .

Why does Harry Reid not want the US Senate and their staff people to go under Obamacare if he thinks it's so swell?

Shush, liberal media is not reporting this and liberals are denying it.

That is what the Democrats compromised with for the Republicans. Ask the Republicans why that was important to have in the bill.

I watched the debate and over and over again the {R} made the point of how unfair it is to give employers a pass but still leave the people on the hook. It is a good point and one you would think the {D}s would be on board with, that and having congress and staff get their insurance on the exchange. But of course not, those big corparate w*****s showed their true colors.

Obamacare should be delayed, my employer is still in the dark and not knowing what actions to take until the rules and regs come out. With the employers getting a free pass for a year I wonder how many people will be kicked to the exchange? Maybe that was the idea in the first place.

Yeah but the Republicans , every single one of them, voted NO on the Affordable Care Act when it came up for a vote. Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi's Democrats all voted YES for Obamacare when it came up for a vote so the Democrats should be pushing for Obamacare coverage for themselves.

It's like AARP asking for a waiver or the unions whining to opt out. Those are the people that initially pushed for Obamacare so why aren't they doing everything in their power to be included in Obamacare?

Oh I know, it was a waste of time to compromise with the Republicans, and the Democrats should have passed the bill they wanted.
