In September 2010, Senate Republicans brought a resolution to the floor to block implementation of the Obamacare HHS grandfather rule. 
The Republicans were warning the current HHS regulations would result in canceled policies and violate President Barack Obama’s promise that people could keep their insurance if they liked it.   The HHS own regulatory rules were predicting this outcome.
The Republicans were referencing HHS Rule 34553 which can be found on page 17 of this pdf and predicted insurance companies would cancel their coverage.

On a party line vote, Democrats killed the resolution, which would have protected people from losing their health insurance policies. (more…)

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

OBAMACARE DISTRACTION – Predicted October 21st –  Shooter: Paul Anthony Ciancia, 23-years-old  Originally from South New Jersey – “Assault Rifle“…  “anti-government“….  “fatigues”…   “Friday – Busy Weekend – Hollywood”

A law enforcement official, who was briefed at LAX on the investigation but not authorized to speak publicly, said the gunman was wearing fatigues and carrying a bag containing a hand-written note that said he “wanted to kill TSA and pigs.” The official requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly.

[…] “There is nobody more frustrated with the website than I am,” she said. “We should have done better.”
She told community leaders the public needs to be reminded that the website does not function like Amazon.com, where customers are used to logging on to buy a product “like a Tickle Me Elmo doll” before someone else gets it. In this case, Sebelius said, the service is constant and doesn’t run out. (more…)

Just now, people, mostly on the left, are slowly awakening to the tentacles of Obamacare.   Just now, people, mostly on the left, are recognizing their leaders have misled and lied to them.    This awakening, recognition and new reality, is what the White House has strategically tried to plan for and coordinate for several years.
The architects began trying to control the scope of the awakening with a political decision to grant a one year tax mandate delay for employers.   This was purely, and politically, designed to avoid the blistering sunlight  directly as a consequence of tens of thousands of employee layoffs, and millions of dropped policies, headed into an election cycle.
The Jarrett/McDonough/Obama/Reid-Pelosi architectural intent continued with a politically constructed website specifically designed to block sunlight from people seeing their new financial reality – Obamacare costs more.  And the objective remains to keep people from recognizing they are going to lose their current healthcare plan and soon their doctor(s).

(VIA CNN)  Senate Democrats voted unanimously three years ago to support the Obamacare rule that is largely responsible for some of the health insurance cancellation letters that are going out.

In September 2010, Senate Republicans brought a resolution to the floor to block implementation of the grandfather rule, warning that it would result in canceled policies and violate President Barack Obama’s promise that people could keep their insurance if they liked it.

“The District of Columbia is an island surrounded by reality. Only in the District of Columbia could you get away with telling the people if you like what you have you can keep it, and then pass regulations six months later that do just the opposite and figure that people are going to ignore it. But common sense is eventually going to prevail in this town and common sense is going to have to prevail on this piece of legislation as well,” Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley said at the time. (more…)

Chuck Schumer has lived up to his word.  He promised he would introduce a new bill in the Senate called the “McConnell Rule”.    The “rule” would grant the president, and subsequently the Treasury Secretary, unlimited capability to raise the debt ceiling as they needed.    Congress could only vote to STOP the debt ceiling from being raised, and it would take a super majority, 66 votes, (2/3rds) to block it.
Called the McConnell Rule because unbelievably it was the brainchild idea of Republican Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell.    
However, because McConnell is in a highly contested primary, Chuck Schumer and Barbara Boxer (yes you read that right) are sponsoring the measure on McConnell’s behalf.  They are calling it the “Pay Our Bills Act”.
WASHINGTON DC – Democratic senators have introduced legislation that would grant President Barack Obama, and subsequent presidents, the authority to increase the legal limit on the federal government’s debt unless Congress subsequently voted to disapprove the increase. (more…)

President Obama, or his immediate staff, have used the following adjectives to describe those Americans who disagree with him politically:   “Gun Toting Bitter bible clingers”, evolved into “radical extremists”, which became “the enemy”, which further evolved into “terrorists” and “jihadists”, then “hostage takers” and “unintellectual slopeheads in flyover country”.
Now, feeling the impact of insurance policy cancellations, we are “small slivers”.
