“Correction. We don’t have the BALLS to do it in Congress. “
How ignorant are you ? You know we need 2/3 vote in the Senate for a conviction and removal.
Speak for yourself. It’s THE HOUSE that initiates impeachment.
And yes I know it takes 2/3 for the SENATE to convict.
And Congress authorized this exactly when?
I guess the new Pubbie majority will have it’s work cut out for them in Jan 15. /s
“This would seem to hand a big negotiating advantage to providers.”
Maybe. But when have you ever seen the Obammunists “negotiate” with anyone? Fascists don’t negotiate; all they know how to do is intimidate or make false promises, and I strongly suspect all the crony capitalists who initially helped get obamacare passed are having second and third thoughts about all of the false promises that have already been made to them.
What prosecutor prosecutes a case that is a 100% loser ?
It is the insurance companies that have to negotiate, all the government did was to dictate that networks have to be up to 50% more inclusive. Providers who were too expensive will now have to be included, the exiting providers will be wanting increases too. The spiral accelerates.

That was well demonstrated when Bill Clinton wasn’t dragged out of The Oval Office by his collar on live TV, by Americans who really gave a crap, then.
HAHAHA. (joe biden)
Never really thought someone could actually wear their persona on the “outside”.
Lord forgive me.

Which may be straw that causes some/many exchange policy providers to exist stage left, as some have already said they may do anyway if they find they have to raise their rates to untenable levels for 2015.
Quite frankly, this is a very odd time to pile onto the existing exchange providers with a requirement like this when so many of the providers are so shaky. Either obama is a complete, blithering idiot or he’s deliberately trying to drive exchange policy providers out of the exchanges. Regardless of rationale, the result is going to be WAY higher premiums and fewer exchange providers, which is going to be a another major backfire for Democrats come November.
There are not enough brave souls in Congress to impeach this president. In case you haven't noticed . . . he is black. Which means, NO ONE will vote to impeach.
Yes, of course, this demonstrates that Congress is racist. They treat this black man differently than all the white men before him. This is the very definition of racism.
followed by what? Summary trial for treason would be appropriate. Intentionally failing to inforce any number of laws is treason on its face. Penalty for treason is obvious. The votes would be available in the House as with Clinton. It’s obvious some pressure needs to be applied to produce enough spinal concrete among House membership to get things started. If dingyharry sees that nothing else is coming his way he might go into savehisownbutt mode?
If you mean by ‘black’ a person of African blood I believe you are wrong. There are many ‘dark skinned’ people from all over this world who are not of African blood, I for one from youth through Army service in WWII. I also believe from public information that Obama’s blood line comes from an Indonesian as much as from mother Stanley Ann. Obama’s connection to Kenya is much known by information about his Kenyan surrogate father but his ties to Indonesia are given are not fully disclosed. That could change in the future-the sooner the better.
Not with a Karl Rove Senate!
That is what they do in Europe, and the doctors earn about 5% more than a janitor or secretary, but everyone in society contributes. Woops, how will the welfare folks like being forced to contribute?
