“Well, of course, I voted against [Obamacare], and I have not read all the rules and regulations,” Fleming told CNSNews.com earlier this month at the Capitol.

If you read a page a minute for 8 hours a day without stopping, it would take you 22 days.

The more they muck it up the more they can stuff things in there to screw us with. That’s the plan and it’s quite evil.

I still wanna know who exactly crafted the “law”. It materialized faster than Hillary’s plan saved on an old floppy disk. This turd has been fermenting for quite some time. Like Lynard Skynard said, “Ooooh, That Smell”

In this day of “optics” all a conservative candidate had to do both in print handout (still) and visuals.

Is stand in front of a table stacked with the pages of this legislation in front, and of the pages of regulations behind it and explain

“On This table is the Affordable Care Act otherwise known as Obama Care. In front are the thousands of pages containing the bill. In the back are the thousands of pages of regulations enforcing it”

“I’m Opposed to passing legislation like this and so should you”

ObamaCARE was initiated by prisoners in jail.

Those who imposed its unConstitutional DEMANDS
ought join the original writers.
