The insurance companies should have a press conference tomorrow saying how it will be impossible to do this, after years of planning, to suddenly change course for ANOTHER year...

I guess that Obama is counting on that old saying that misery loves company, either that or Obama just doesn’t care whether people hate Obamacare, as long as Democrats win the 2014 mid-terms.

Insurers for many plans pulled out of various states. They don’t even have a full-scale prescience any more.

I write my senators and representative so frequently and with such fervor that I probably have earned a spot near the top of DHS’s %^&$&* list, a position I proudly claim. But we that are truly attentive are vastly outnumbered by the low information voters (not sure I like the term, just ignorant will work) that those members of congress do not have to heed my advice as they will just dole out more tax money in exchange for uninformed votes totally unaware of the downstream costs.

Yep, how’s that going to work for those who had insurance with companies who’ve left? Very good fact to remember.

The republican losers have a bill that does the same thing obama is pushing. We don't want it delayed until after next years election you idiots. Repeal it or make the rats choke in it.

The “delay” tactic pushed by some on both sides of the aisle mainly is to allow you enough time to lube-up. This is so when they come behind you next year it won’t be so painful. Believe me...they will be coming. LIBs/DIMNs/commies are nothing if not persistent.

They are really screwing with those people. So with the website still down, they are not able to sign them up for a new policy. What is going to happen when their old policy is cancelled, and there is no new policy, or a policy hasn’t taken effect ? Who is going to be on the hook for their medical care in the interim, if they get sick or injured ????

Talk about a lawsuit......

Pass the popcorn please.

Same old Rat/Obama strategy, obfuscate, stir up enough dust, then escape in the confusion as things go to crap.

Ain't going to work this time, too many sheeple got their ass kicked by way of the wallet.

They won’t be! and even if the expiration date is after the nov elections, they will remember the trauma of cancellation; they will not be fooled again about what will happen to their policies; but God Bless them if they get another year of coverage.

When people start losing loved ones because these 600 or so in DC screwed up what was previously the best healthcare in the world, they’re going to be remembering it forever and who could blame them for wanting to see a few heads roll, figuratively speaking of course - but that could depend upon how bad it gets...
