“This is a typical slick move by Obama and the Dems. He’s taking the monkey off of their backs and putting on the insurance companies backs.”

I have no sypmathy for the insurance industry here; they thought they had millions of involuntary new customers they could force into plans with the support of the IRS.

Obama also took a swipe at states that didn’t set up exchanges; he is a miserable piece of %&#@ and will be remembered as such for decades.

What a munificent, kind and benevolent lord is our Lord Obama.
Isn’t anyone else sick of this guy decreeing/proclaiming the law?

Years ago here in NJ, the government put the squeeze on insurance companies because so many didn’t want to sell auto insurance here. They were told they had to sell it or they couldn’t sell other insurance; some simply packed up & left. Auto insurance is high in NJ because it is a very dense state, and insurance fraud is viewed as a legitimate means of supplementing welfare, food stamps, and section 8 housing. Even casinos started putting surveillance cameras on their outside sidewalks because of the “trip & falls”...

Wait. Those terrible health care plans that were harming working Americans? Obama is extending them?

Obama deigns to allow bad apple insurance companies to continue to sell junk and subpar policies. Now bow your head and kiss his ring.

“What I want is my auto insurer to sell me health insurance.”

Move to Michigan and that’s exactly what you’ll get!

Notice when something bad happens he uses the pronoun “we”. When something he thinks is good happens he uses the pronoun “I”.

Now look at the “we’s” and “I’s” in the following statement. “WE did fumble the ball on it and one of the things I am going to do is make sure WE get it fixed.”

By what authority does the Executive modify law?

By the 14th Amendment.

"The next observation is more important in view of the arguments of counsel in the present case. It is, that the distinction between citizenship of the United States and citizenship of a state is clearly recognized and established. . . .

It is quite clear, then, that there is a citizenship of the United States, and a citizenship of a state, which are distinct from each other, and which depend upon different characteristics or circumstances in the individual.

We think this distinction and its explicit recognition in this Amendment of great weight in this argument, because the next paragraph of this same section, which is the one mainly relied on by the plaintiffs in error, speaks only of privileges and immunities of citizens of the United States, and does not speak of those of citizens of the several states. The argument, however, in favor of the plaintiffs, rests wholly on the assumption that the citizenship is the same and the privileges and immunities guaranteed by the clause are the same.”

—Slaughterhouse Cases: 83 U.S. 36, 73-74 (1873)
