“Don’t do this to me” (NobamaCare for Sebelius)
PowerLine ^ | 10/30/2013 | Paul Mirengoff

Posted on 10/31/2013 11:10:16 AM PDT by mojito

Listening to...Kathleen Sebelius’ testimony this morning, I somehow didn’t hear what may become the money moment of the entire affair. Pressed by Rep. Gardner as to why she has not, and will not, enroll in the ObamaCare exchanges (as Gardner has tried to do), Sebelius muttered “don’t do this to me.”

The unwillingness of top government officials and members to subject themselves to that which they have imposed on ordinary Americans is a major sore spot in the Obamacare debate. In this context, Sebelius’ utterance can be viewed as an anthem.

In addition — and this comes as no surprise — Sebelius’ claim, given under oath, in response to Rep. Gardner that she is prohibited by law from using the exchanges because she has affordable health care coverage from her employer turns out to be false.

They committee should have placed a laptop in front of all of it’s members and those called to testify. Each would then be required to log on as if they were trying to signup for Obamacare.

Imagine the look on their faces and their reactions to the increase cost that their new insurance would cost them. Then after that start the questions:

Example: Director Sebelius, according to the plans offered to me please explain to me why I, as a 60+ year old male need to pay to have coverage for breast cancer, pre-natal care, etc..

Obviously I knew who she was, but had never seen her on video until yesterday.

What an annoying voice.

She’s the daughter of former Ohio Gov John “moonbeam” Gilligan.
