Alan Colmes on Hannity was complaining these companies didn’t oppose Obamacare during the debate on the bill
1 All the more reason their financial reports are credible.
2 If the democrats had held a single HEARING with witnesses who would be affected by Obamacare, then maybe we would have learned all this stuff in advance.
According to Nancy, the bill needed to be passed before it could have been scored by these companies because we needed to ‘know what’s in it’!
The ceo’s should just respond ‘Facts are facts’ when asked about the damaging data in their REQUIRED reports.
Had they pointed out the insanity during the process of cramming the bill, there would have been a bandaid applied, and the punishment would have been meted out to the companies.
Nobody knew what was in the bill!
“Alan Colmes on Hannity was complaining these companies didn’t oppose Obamacare during the debate on the bill...”
And I’m sure Sean didn’t even think to ask the bug-eyed liberal moron HOW companies were supposed to know what was in the bill in order to oppose it... did he?
Saw colmes on O’Reilly tonight. He was especially slimy and reptilian. All dissent by the Tea Party against “commander zero” and obamacare is racist, donchaknow.
Most of these meetings were held behind closed doors and Republicans were also blocked from these meetings. Just the tight lipped libs and their concern was not what was in the bill and no one knew what was in the bill because it was still being written. Their main concern behind these closed doors was to get the bill passed using every dirty tactic they could come up with including the nuclear option. If this bill failed then Zero would have lost his power. Pelosi told a gathering that we must pass the bill to see what is in it.
This administration and their co-conspirators in Congress didn't give a crap about what the corporations thought about the whole idea and they certainly don't want them saying anything negative about it now.
But, when you think about it, how could these companies even know how the new laws would effect them until they actually READ the final law? Their lawyers and financial people have even now probably read more of the legislation than those twits that voted for it - I would say even Obama himself had not read it all before he signed it and maybe not even today as we speak. He's been too busy flitting hither and yon to drum up support for something he doesn't really even know very well.
I hope and pray that this big, ugly mess of an attack on American ideals and freedoms doesn't get past the starting line before it is judged unconstitutional and thrown into the garbage heap of bad ideas passed off as "progressive".
