Hey, Obama just arbitrarily delayed another part of Obamacare. At this rate, there will be no active parts of Obamacare left for Republicans to defund.
I remember that old School House Rock song about how a bill becomes a law, but they totally left out the part where the president can just change implementation of the law in “consultation with businesses.” They’ll have to add a whole other verse for that part. Maybe make it dubstep.
Anyway, I’m sure this will once again give people confidence in Obamacare that it’s so well planned and thought out that Obama has to create for himself new powers to stop Obamacare from enraging voters. The provision he’s delaying this time are caps on out-of-pocket costs, or as insurance companies sees it, a mandate forcing them to raise premiums.
I guess the plan is now to delay all the pain of Obamacare until Obama is out of office and is long gone — presumably having moved to some country he likes better than the U.S. And then we’ll have this Republican president whining about the huge mess he inherited from Obama. Hey, no excuses; you deal with it. Presumably then there will be some manhunt to find Obama and bring him to justice, but I bet he’s already built some kill switch into our drones to prevent them from being used against him. He’s so devious and yet… so stupid.
Man, I can’t wait to see what our nation’s rodeo clowns have to say about all this.
On the plus side such powers, if not objected to, will become precedent, won’t they? And when a Conservative becomes President there can be a whole host of laws that “Won’t be implemented”. I really think Democrats are so full of themselves they simply can’t see the obvious right in front of their noses.
@1: Democrats full of themselves?
Nah. They’re full of stuff that begins with ‘s’ and ends with ‘t.’
I believe we already know what rodeo clowns in Missouri think of Obama.
Forget trying to defund or repeal ObamaCare. Congress should just take a page from the President’s book and issue a universal waiver
Other things the occupant is delaying:
The U.S. landing on the moon
Batman’s retirement
Death
Things the occupant has deemed law:
Cap and trade — This is where he will trade you a cap for your dog
The sun and earth orbit around him
Rodeo clowns may no longer attend fairs with masks.
er-ing and uhh-ing is now elegant speech.
Butt is evil and fattening, so no crime was committed.
