Wow, good to see we still have some good honorable Politicians left. True Heroes. The Mandate is a shameful Un-American disgrace. Shame on all who've supported it.


Bill to Make the Fine $0 for Violating the Individual Mandate Passes by 90 Votes

The House of Representatives passed legislation Wednesday afternoon to make the fine/“tax” for violating Obamacare’s individual mandate $0 for this year, and it did so by the wide margin of 90 votes (250 to 160). That’s 83 more than the 7-vote margin (219 to 212) by which Obamacare passed the House four Marches ago. Moreover, 27 Democrats voted for today’s legislation—27 more than the number of Republicans who voted for Obamacare when it passed. In all, 223 Republicans voted for today’s bill, while only one—Paul Broun of Georgia—voted against it. Here’s the member-by-member tally for the vote.

Earlier today, the Obama White House released a 3-paragraph statement on the legislation, noting that Obamacare “helps millions of Americans stay on their parents’ plans until age 26”—which, of course, has nothing to do with the individual mandate or the fine/“tax” for violating it—and saying that if President Obama were presented with the legislation, “he would veto it.”

Given the wide margin by which the legislation passed the House, along with the significant level of bipartisan support with which it passed, perhaps the Senate will actually take a vote, pass the bill, and give Obama that chance. That would provide a welcome reminder to the American people of the extent to which Obama’s centerpiece legislation relies upon coercion.

But it also relies on lawlessness—a fact that is becoming more apparent by the day. Within hours of threatening to veto this legislative change to Obamacare, Obama announced that he is again making an executive change to Obamacare, in plain defiance of the legislative text, the rule of law, and the constitutional separation of powers. No wonder left-leaning constitutional scholar Jonathan Turley says that we are at “a constitutional tipping point” and that Congress must act to stop this president’s “dangerous,” “destabilizing” “aggregation of power.”

Wonderful. Just keep adding screw up to screw up until the whole thing needs to be re-written from scratch, and we can put in the Universal Single-Payer healthcare we need but don't deserve.
 
Obama is the cool parent...he never follows through with his threats of discipline.:D

Don't underestimate the Dictator-wannabe. His IRS Henchmen will be out in force in the coming years.
 
Waste billions of dollars to expand Medicaid and kick people off of their individual policies, awesome job democraps........ :thup:

You're too late. The whole thing needed to be rewritten before it was even written. We wont get universal single payer. The votes arent there and the idea sucks.

Yes, Dems are abandoning Obamacare in droves. I wonder how mnay elected Dems are cursing nancy pelosi for promising them they would ride to victory for years to come on this new entitlement.
She probably told them, If you like your elected office, you can keep your elected office. Period.

She might be the only one.
She's in a comfy safe seat representing the fruits and nuts of SanFran. It's people out in RealAmerica that are worried sick.

Obamacare is an awful nightmare. The whole thing should be scrapped. Hopefully one day, that will happen.

It should be scrapped, and a real solution put in place, a good one, for the vast majority that is.

You mean like they did in the first place? Uh.. nope.

I would support a resolution by both parties, to hold party leaders and members responsible for setting up their own health care systems: the Democrats for fulfilling their promise to members on Singlepayer by setting up their own system that advocates of this system pay for and manage themselves; and the Republicans for a free market system that also holds individuals responsible for their own health care but without federal mandates.

As for the Libertarians, where there is a push for legalization of medical marijuana, setting up a system of monitoring the studies of the effectiveness of marijuana vs. other natural therapies, including spiritual healing that cures the cause of addiction whereas marijuana cannot.

Especially since Democrat leaders spent 130 million of public dollars promoting ACA, and the federal shutdown over this conflict in political ideology/beliefs cost taxpayers an estimated 24 billion, both Parties should accept and split the responsibility for those costs, raise funds to pay it back as a part of fundraising for candidates for office, and invest at least that much setting up systems that RESPECT equal Constitutional beliefs and rights to "health care as a choice" as "health care as a right" WITHOUT infringing on each other's systems of beliefs.

Both parties are guilty of imposing political beliefs against the Constitutional rights of others to believe otherwise; the leaders should agree to create separate systems for their members as they represented. or else it's political fraud, abusing govt, political parties, and media influence to conspire to violate equal Constitutional rights to our political beliefs.
