What does it matter what he 'promised'? The language was not in the bill. The bill was voted on as it was...without the 'promise'. The democratic legislators would have passed ACA...'promise' or no 'promise'.
What does it matter!?! It matters that our President lied to the American people to get support for the bill. It matters that he lied to get re-elected. He said you could keep your insurance because your 2010 policy was grandfathered, but he knew regulations were written that said any policy change at all (increased or decreased premiums, change of deductions, or whatever) would mean your policy could not be grandfathered. I expect politicians to lie. They lie about what they knew and when they knew it, but not about the actual effects of a domestic policy that every single person is forced to comply with or be in trouble with the IRS. The IRS is the one government body that can confiscate your property if you don't comply. That's scary stuff.
I'm surprised Obamacare won't require PAP smear coverage for men and prostate wellness for women.
Where we live, you're only required to buy flood insurance if you live in a floodplain. Otherwise, it's optional.
But that concept is too easy and doesn't involve enough government control for this administration's liking...
Well, if you can't force older people to pay for maternity coverage, how are the younger subsidy-qualifying people going to get maternity coverage?
Excuse me for not taking at face value that a blog known to be hateful in its intent (linked in the OP) ... is truthfully reporting on the matter. Post a link to the report where the IRS is reported to have said what the haters are saying it says ... so that we can each read the words as written.
Gomexico, are you saying NBC is a shill for the GOP?

lol gomexico, NBC who broke the story has always been a shill for Obama. This was a key focus on the campaign and Obama and his administration knew they were lying. How is it that the president can blatantly lie to Americans to get our votes and get away with it?
In other words, Barack Obama is a goddamned liar, and NBC has exposed his blatant lies for the whole world to see.
And thankfully it was NBC and not Fox News, so his supporters like Gomexico can actually believe it instead of dismissing it outright if it came from Fox.
Barack is like the pimp who hangs out at the bus stop talking to the young girls. "Hey baby, I know how you can make some quick money" and "No, you don't have to sell your body."
Individual policy holders will, for the most part, receive better coverage that is more affordable, thanks to subsidies. There is no chance the policy can be cancelled due to pre-existing conditions, which can often be the case with current health plans.
Just like the captain, going down with the ship, even if its your own fault you went full steam ahead, directly into the iceberg shouting, "people can still get in the rafts, whats the problem"?

Obama understands he is playing to a base of low-information voters
