#1 They are actually seeing what is happening to the rest of the US, and they don't like it. Maybe they should have read it before passing it?

Also live with it you fuckers. You forced this abomination on us and you will have to deal with it like the rest of us! Or better yet abolish it!

#5 Why is it that Congress never considered that possibility, Rambler?

Maybe they should just pass a law that denies the Prez an exemption. WHo'd pay for O?

#6 Bobby, since none of the Congresscritters who voted for it, actually read it, it is no surprise that they are just discovering this now.

Maybe they can convince Sebelius to give them an exemption, like she's given to a lot of other favored groups.

#7 "If not, I think we should begin an immediate amicus brief to say, 'Listen this is simply not fair to these employees,'" Larson told POLITICO. "They are federal employees."

#11 Listen this is simply not fair to these employees,'" Larson told POLITICO. "They are federal employees."

Too f@@king bad. It's even worse out here in the private sector, you federal ticks need to face the real world. Maybe you elitist a-holes should have read the bill and actually debated what was in it before you passed it. Time to eat the dogfood you are force feeding to the nation. Good riddance.
