Nancy Pelosi: House Democrats have own Obamacare plan
Politico ^ | November 14, 2013 | By JENNIFER HABERKORN and JOSE DELREAL

Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that Democrats are hoping to vote on their own plan to address the mass health insurance cancellations associated with Obamacare.

She called it a “belt and suspenders” approach that would reinforce, but is not intended to compete with the administrative fix announced by President Barack Obama on Thursday.

“We have our own proposal, which we think is really good,” Pelosi said at the Washington Ideas Forum, sponsored by the Atlantic magazine. “I think that we’ll see in the next 24, 48, 36 hours something to the effect of how do we accommodate those people” who have faced cancellation of their health plans.

Will we have to pass that one to see what’s in it too?

Probably not.

“belt and suspenders”

IOW - doubling down on stupid. I wonder if Nazi Pelosi will let the Republicans read this one before they get to vote on it. Oh, wait - she isn't the Speaker any more. THANK GOD

Jeez, I thought the ACA authorized the Secretary of HHS to do almost anything, which means in practice anything the President wants. Did they leave something out in this “Enabling Law” that necessitates separate action? They didn’t mean to.

Their own plan? Where? the House? the Senate?

Honest to dog this woman drives me insane.
See what I mean...

This is Nancy Pelosi's disaster every bit as much as it is Barack Obama's.

Never forget that.

This from the moron who thought Obamacare was so good we had to wait until we got it to know what was in it. It’s all bad.

Col Frank Slade :" Will they read it before voting on it ? Probably not. "

Nancy , we already danced to that , and now it is the law of the land !
Get over it !, and may the Republicans vote "present" , so that you can clean up your own mess !
If Boehner had balls , he'd say (just as Zero did ): " We will not negotiate ! "

You passed the law you frigging idiot. You thought that was really good.

Take your proposal and shove it four square up your giggy.

Six years ago Nancy Pelosi signed off on the legitimacy of Obama’s qualifications for candidacy for office, knowing full well he wasn’t. Obama is the only thing standing between her and a lifetime behind bars, and she will defend him to the death. He goes down, she goes down... hard.
