People losing coverage will now be allowed to buy bare-bones “catastrophic” insurance that the law usually limits to those younger than age 30, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said yesterday. Others can opt out completely without the threat of the fines being imposed next year on the uninsured as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.

Now the mandate is no longer in place for those who lost their insurance due to Obamacare. This new rule was simply declared by our glorious leader.

Isn't it great how the President now has the power to create laws. So it is said, so let it be written.

He's been doing that ever since he took office, he's turned our government into a banana republic.
I stopped considering myself an American when The Chosen One was reelected. The Kenyan is not my president.

Now you know how a lot of your compatriots felt in 2004.

Wait a sec. If we accept John Roberts' contortions, then the individual mandate is a tax. So Obama is unilaterally waiving a tax for a certain group of citizens by simply opening his mouth hole at a press conference.

Jesus. Did we lose a war?

This is a more gentle form of tyranny.

Step one: pass a terrible law that will be a unfair burden for many.
Step two: grant waivers to those you like.

So you see, Obama isn't "dictating". Instead he's waiving the requirements of the law. Sounds much nicer. Same thing though.

That's a pretty vile thing to write about people you don't even know Duchess. Jeez.

Hitler was a Great Man with a Great Plan....a plan for a new world order that would put the White Race in power and rule the Earth forever with no apologies to the dark races. It's a shame he went nutty with that whole "kill the Jews " thing. I like Jews. As a rule, they are smart and savvy.
World War two was a racial war, and the white race lost.
We continue to lose, and I fear for the future of the human race. I think we will see a new dark Age descend upon the planet when white people disappear, which will happen very soon if things don't change.
