Thank you, Bob!!
State’s Rights Ping.
It’s a law and can be changed, repealed. The states need to opt out. Those blue states that try to implement will find themselves in a small pool with higher rates than even the realistic estimates which are unduly high.
But GOP elites and tea party are busy fighting with each other.
There are still ways to fight this thing ..... not happy with Boehner’s stance. I have two brothers with ‘small’ companies so they are in the thick of things - both said last Dec. if Obama was re-elected, they would have to shut the doors .... we’ll see how it goes.
This should be sent to all governors today!
anybody know where Florida stands with this?
The GOP is getting a notice (email, phone, whatever) from me that they are 'dead' to me. Tuesday was the last vote for a Republican candidate where I have to hold my nose. I WILL vote 3rd party & if that's a choice I can't live with, I'll not vote. I doubt the Dems will have a candidate in 2016 that will be as destructive/treasonous as Obama - even the Clintons don't want to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs ... Obama doesn't seem to care. SO - the GOP "shot their wad" with me on this last election. Will they change? Probably not ... rumors of Jeb Bush circulating ... could just be the Malicious Media at work already. But, to reiterate, warnings of "you HAVE to vote for our moderate, squishy candidate that we're cramming down your throat or things will be SO bad, the country will be ruined ...." will NOT work on me any more because we're THERE already. I'm hunkering down and taking care of 'me and mine' for right now ... gonna be a horrendous 4 years.
This is one of its biggest weaknesses.
Are the President, members of Congress, cabinet members, forced to opt-in to ObamaCare? Why not? How much do they pay for their plans? Are their medical planning decisions subject to review by outside panels?
This is an important part of the push-back process.
whats going on with the group that is fighting obamacare on the grounds that since the SCOTUS declared the penalty a Tax, and the bill was from the senate, and not the house WHERE ALL TAXES must originate from, how does that effect implementation?

Gov. Rick Scott said Wednesday that he stands by his decision that Florida will not carry out certain parts of the new health care reform, despite President Barack Obama’s re-election, the Orlando Sentinel reports.
Scott says Obamacare will be too expensive and will raise costs for Florida businesses.
This summer, shortly after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the Patient Protection & Affordable Care Act, Scott said he wouldn’t implement two provisions of the law, including the expansion of Medicaid and the creation of a private insurance exchange.
The new health care law will take full effect in January 2014.
thank you very much. a tiny glimmer of hope in an otherwise very hopeless place.
Stay strong my FRiend. We have come too far to give up. We all still have some hope with the heroes who are willing to take a stand.
I saw this guy (Michael Cannon) on Wilkow's show, last night. It was encouraging, to say the least. He mentioned that Congress, under the Constitution, does NOT have the power to implement 0Care...for several reasons including the IPAB piece and the fact that revenue measures originated in the senate. I believe he's with the Cato Institute.

. . .
Of course not, but they should be. Each and every one of them.
And those making their health care decisions should never know know that it’s someone “important” waiting on that hip replacement.
NO JUMPING IN LINE.
I have a sick feeling in my gut Boehner is holding on to Obamacare because he thinks he can use it as a bargaining chip.
I live in Maryland.
If anyone thinks our suck butt Governor, Tax and Spend O’Malley is going to buck Obama care I have a bridge to sell you.
