God d**n it. How the hell do you get blindsided by your own f%$#@*g legislation??? Should have read it first, you DUmbass.
  
They wrote it. They knew what was in it. They knew some policies were going to get cancelled because they did not meet the ACA standards, but are acting like this is all coming as a big shock.

Blindsided by their own legislation? For real? Yes, for real. Sucker.

Unreal.

Don't mind the noise. I'm just breaking things.

ObamaCare is like a stool sample.  You have to pass it to find out what's in it.

Shut the **** up, Alkie! We've been telling you and your ilk this for the last 4 ****ing years and all we've gotten back is that we're morons who don't know what we're talking about and hate The Won because he's black and we're racist. Even with the shut down, any little concession requested by the GOP was met with derision and name calling.

Well guess what? Own this turd sandwich cause if I'm going to have to take a bite, so the **** are you.

IIRC during the debate and subsequent to the vote on this monstrosity...I seem to recall reports of entire pages of the bill being blank with only a note saying "to be written after passage" or something like that.

Right there is how you "get blindsided by your own f%$#@*g legislation"

13. They didn't. This is the insurance companies cancelling policies and using ACA as cover.

They could continue the policies. They just choose not to - and they are trying to say it is ACA. It isn't.

Of course it was the insurance companies...... :-)

I think there were a couple thousand instances where it said "to be determined".  That's where the added 20k pages of regulations came from.  Besides that, this is the perpetual never ending law.  They will continue to regulate it, just like the IRS tax code.

Damn insurance companies.

And how do they get away with charging higher premiums for auto insurance if you have a few wrecks?

And how about homeowner's insurance going up for people who have a bunch of claims?

And why do we allow them to charge higher premiums for life insurance simply because someone is old?
A twenty-year term policy should cost the same whether you're twenty-five or eighty-five, right?

There are so many other places where the muslim needs to force insurance companies to be fair.

Insurance is so unfair.

How can this be legal under the Constitution?  Is there a provision in the Constitution that states congress can pass and the president can sign what amounts to a blank check to be filled in at a later date?

That didn't matter when you had a Dem controlled House and Senate.

Even the way this bill was brought up for a vote was fradulent.  But the Dems knew they had a narrow window of time to get this thing rammed through and just said "screw the Constitution" yet again.

Obama wasn't 'blindsided' - he is just trying to shift the blame to those evil 1%er loving rethuglikkkan supporting insurance companies. -This is just a replay of the same thing that happened with fuel prices. -Obama wasn't upset that fuel prices rose, just that they rose too fast.

In this case, Obama isn't upset that these polices are getting cancelled - just they are getting cancelled all at once.

This was no surprise, Pitt. -Now that 'the cat is out of the bag' , several Obamacare supporters have made it clear that these cancellations need to happen, else Obamacare dies. Even us stupid Teabaggin' Freepers knew it from the beginning, so it had to be obvious, right ?

I don't see anyone trying to stop him.  Congress, insurance companies, doctors, citizens, no one.  As long as he's allowed to make up the rules and does a run around congress, he'll just keep doing it.
