One day after announcing he "might" change Obamacare to let people keep their present health care plans, Senators are revealing that he threatened to veto a bill to do just that.

Oh, well. So much for Presidential promises.

Obama Issues Veto Threat for "Keep Your Plan" Legislation - Katie Pavlich

If you want your plan, you can keep....veto!

The House of Representatives is getting ready to vote on legislation today legalizing the reinstatement of lost insurance plans thanks to Obamacare. Essentially, the Keep Your Plan Act does exactly what President Obama administratively (and probably illegally) declared as a "fix" for mass insurance cancellations. Late last night GOP Leader Eric Cantor revealed President Obama intends to veto the legislation should it pass and reach his desk for a signature.
 
Congress passing a bill is part of the Constitutional process. Obama can't allow that.

In actuality the bill differs from Obama's actions. The move to allow old plans would destroy Obamacare, which rests on destroying the individual market for insurance in favor of exchanges. This is why he is threatening a veto.
 
Congressman Upton's Niece

He does not want Congress to do this, Obama (the dictator) wants to issue executive orders to do this.

Hopefully the tide has turned - if enough Democrats join the Republicans then they can override a veto.

Not gonna happen.

Besides, it's stupid of Upton to do this.

dimocraps got themselves into this mess and now he's giving them something to hide behind.

They can vote for it, watch it go down in flames in the Senate and then go home and lie (they ARE dimocraps) about how much they care and how they didn't know and how they voted to help their people out and.... Just fucking lie because -- That's what dimocraps do.

This is a mistake on the part of Republicans.

I think Boehner should kill the bill. RIGHT NOW!!

But he won't. He's not smart enough
 
Oh Ho! This is hilarious! Actually, the Republicans shouldn't be interfering with Obama's "fix" anyway! It's a bust! Let him veto the bill! And the fix will not fix anything, but cause the Obamacare to spiral down to a natural death.

Now, the Republicans are out of the way and Obama can hang himself by the rope he just gave himself.
 
Now , this bill will not fix all of the cancellations. It can't Obamacare would crash, so Obama does not want all policies to come back. Nor does he want new policies to be bought at sub par coverage. The insurance companies are not happy with Obama. Or the Republicans now, since the Upton bill came out.

Some state insurance regulators are not going to go along with these plans whether it's a law or not. It is just too much of a change to take place in one month when it took them three years to put the present changes in effect now. It just can't be done.

Look at what your lies wrought, Obama! Oh, when we first deceive... what a web we weave!

This bill doesn't just let people stay on their pre-ACA policies, it also lets the insurance companies keep selling those policies to new customers.

Another classic boneheaded overreach by the GOP.

It's the Democrats pushing it and voting for it.
And how dare insurance companies be allowed to sell policies people want to buy? It's an outrage!

Nearly 100 dems were threatening to go with the Upton plan before Obama's fix.

And only 39 voted to do so.

So, there's that...

Cancelled and uninsured people would like that but it will be unsustainable for Obamacare.


They should have just stayed out of the way of Obama and let him hang on his own. But no problem, if Obama is not lying this time, he will veto this bill and it will be squarely on his shoulders again.
 
As best I can tell, the screwup was in all the conditions, and limits, and loopholes in the grandfather clause;

they should just clean that up, say happy now?, and move on.
