The sad thing is, we will get liberals defending this. Talk about people with no back bones, no dignity. They'll make themselves look like absolute fools, all for the sake of their stupid, damaging agenda.

And to think, the media and libs fought so hard against even the thought of repealing this monstrosity. Yet Obama keeps moving the goal posts and now his buddies get exemptions until after he is gone?! You can't make this up, its that insane.

Hehe, all of you just admitted that there is nothing Obama could do to make you happy.

That said, I don't care what happens with this law. I have the best health care money can buy. So, you all can suck it

Thats kinda where I am with it. It was so important to not deny one american the wonderful benefits in ACA, that we absolutely must do everything we can to get it started NOW..

oh wait, we can wait..

Its all a matter of spreading out the pain, so its not felt all at once. A handful of gripes spread out over a decade is far better than 1/2 the nation bitching at once.

You know, the political convenience and games-playing is one thing, but I'm a little concerned about the solvency of the insurance companies who built rates around factors that Obama has removed from the equation. And from where does Obama derive the money or authority to fix the insurance companies' problems?

We've been told that the ACA has a lot of moving parts and it is all designed to work together; the way Obama is putting it together, I think there are going to be a lot of parts left over. And it isn't going to work well at all.

You think your plan is safe, but it is not. Nothing in the world of health care is safe.

Dont need to worry about the solvency of the insurance companies. Those that participated in ACA exchanges are gauranteed a 3% profit margin, of course at the taxpayers expense.

Tax the poor, give to the rich corporate insurance companies while socializing losses. Its one big fat joke.

Ok so tomorrow if you are a typical Tea Partier Republican you have to decide whether you are going down to the VA for your first appointment and then down to the clinic for your Medicare appointment. After that you go down to the Golden Corral for your afternoon meeting with your Tea Party friends so you can complain about gubbermint health care. Then you go down to check on your mother-father etc. in a Medicaid paid care center. After that you check up on your Meals on Wheels for you neighbor. Finally you end your day by writing a letter to the editor complaining about socialized medicine and specifically the ACA... You have to love the Tea Party.

You have to be afraid of the TEA party; be very afraid. Elections are coming and it isn't going to be pretty for liberals who have no clue.

BTW, I don't know any people such as you describe. You run around with an odd crowd, in your imagination, perhaps?
