 ??? I thought this was a good thing?  That's what Obama said, and Nancy, and the unions, and the dcrats.

Get your "situational awareness" instincts to kick in.  You just got kicked in your rear. Again.

Shocking! MSNBC Panel Agrees Congressional Exemption from High ObamaCare Premiums 'Crazy'


After co-host Mika Brzezinski reported the latest development in ObamaCare’s rocky implementation, Scarborough burst out in laughter:
Hold on, hold on. Members of Congress, Harold [Ford, Jr.], were furious that they were going to be held to the same law that they passed, right?

SCARBOROUGH: You mean we're going to have to live by the laws that we passed on the American people?

BARNICLE: We're going to have to worry about the same things that our constituents are forced to worry about? Please!

Why does this shock anyone?  The Republicans accused the Democrats of exempting themselves BEFORE the bill passed.  The Democrats specifically amended the bill to include Congress, thereby disarming the Repubs of that challenge.

Since then, Harry Reid has submitted a couple of bills to amend the law and exempt Congress from AHCA.

Lying, two-faced, money-grabbing politicians ...

And those are their GOOD POINTS!!   :wtf:
When only cops have guns, it's called a "police state".

And all the people that voted for Obama are getting their just desserts. Of course, those that didn't are getting screwed, too. The elitist -  laws are for you and not for us - double standard is what you get when you vote into office political demagogues and radicals like Obama, Pelosi, Schumer, etc.. The Democrats are responsible for this monstrosity called Obamacare, and when all of our insurance premiums begin to skyrocket (some already have), and you lose your employer provided plan, or have your hours cut so they aren't legally obligated to provide you with health insurance, you can thank all the Democrats in the House and Senate that forced this down the throats of the American people. You can thank Obama for signing it into law, and you can thank yourself (Democrat voters).

I believe they may also be exempt from the current sequestration furloughs. If anyone should be subject to a mandatory 20% pay cut like the majority of federal employees, it's those idiots.
