Exactly right, you cannot force a company to sell a product. But they will probably try.

Tell Upton to stuff it.

If they pass the bill, Reid will substitute the Landrieu language—WHICH SAVE OBAMACARE AND SAVE LANDRIEU!!!

It might have been nice if those democrats read the bill first-—they probably did, but they have their arses so far up there, they think nobody should notice.

a bill that would allow Americans to keep their existing health coverage through 2014 without penalties. The measure, drafted by Representative Fred Upton

Through 2014? THROUGH 2014?! Are you bleepin' kidding me?

The Collaborators truly are the stupid party.
