House Democrat On Obamacare "I Don't Know How Obama Fucked This Up So Badly"
For five years, congressional Democrats have sprung to his defense when Obama's been in trouble. Now though, amid the dismal reality of Obamacare, Politico reports a familiar refrain from Democratic sources: Obama's "if-you-like-it-you-can-keep-it" promise on insurance policies is his "Read my lips, no new taxes" moment — a reference to the broken promise that came to damage President George H.W. Bush’s credibility with his fellow Republicans. His one-time allies are no longer sure that it's wise to follow him into battle, leaving Obama and his law not only vulnerable to existing critics, but open to new attacks from his own party. Democratic sources say, Obama can expect that lawmakers will be quicker to criticize him — and distance themselves from his policies.
[Instead of his "fix" and talking points for Obamacare], the White House chief of staff might have been better off revealing a U.S. map with the president’s plan for saving congressional Democrats’ seats — or just apologizing for letting so many Democrats walk out in public and repeat wildly inaccurate White House claims about the health of the enrollment website and Americans’ ability to keep their insurance plans if they liked them.
...
President Barack Obama’s credibility may have taken a big hit with voters, but he’s also in serious danger of permanently losing the trust of Democrats in Congress.
...
“I don’t know how he f—-ed this up so badly,” said one House Democrat who has been very supportive of Obama in the past.
The first test of unity: how many Democrats vote for a bill Friday penned by Michigan Republican Rep. Fred Upton. The legislation would allow people to keep their canceled insurance plans through 2014.
...
Congressional Democrats are on the line in 2014. Many of them voted for Obamacare, defended it in 2010 and will have to stand in front of voters next year and explain the problems.
...
Even some Democrats who have been big supporters of the Affordable Care Act told McDonough that Obama’s plan for an administration fix to address health plan cancellations isn’t enough for them. They need a bill to get behind. Translation: In addition to skepticism about the policy, it’s not good politics for them to just fall in line behind Obama on the fix.
...
Democrats who are leaning toward voting for a GOP bill, due on the House floor Friday, that would address the cancellation issue in much broader fashion than Obama would like.
“We don’t have a policy problem,” Pelosi told her Democrats in the private meeting, a defense of the law written by Congress. “We have a website problem.”
...
No one expects Obama to lose the majority of Democrats on the GOP bill Friday, but even a few dozen defections would be a telling indication that lawmakers are no longer as worried about hurting him as they once were.
...
Rep. Jim Moran (D-Va.), who passionately defended the law in the closed-door meeting Thursday, acknowledged in an interview that the White House was probably a “little too overconfident and the rhetoric, perhaps, got a little hyperbolic in terms of how perfect this is.” But he also acknowledged it is more difficult for House Democrats to sign onto the White House’s promises right now, particularly the assurances that the website will be fixed by the end of the month.
“We’re not going to all get behind a Nov. 30 date, which is probably not going to be realized...

i am loving this.. just a little pin prick.. can you tell me where it hurts?
Repudiate Obozo = Repudiate the banksters.
This "Fix", apart from the fact that it won't work because of contracts executed by States with the Insurers, is also unconstitutional. The President has a constitutional duty to "Faithfully implement all laws". Only Congress can make changes to any law. If the law IS changed it will doom Obamacre to failure because of the "Adverse selection" in place, whereby the old and sick only will enroll, thus pushing up costs and premiums, which in turn means fewer people can afford to enroll. If it ISN'T changed, it is going to fail anyway because the young will not join. I give it 12 months maximum before it falls apart.
I know how they fucked up so badly and wrote about it here: http://thebullelephant.com/it-cant-be-fixed/ Same things I've been saying for years. The law is a flawed design and the management is incompetent.
Stay away from this thing. It's an identity theft machine, and I will be releasing more information on that topic sometime next week. I have a meeting in Congress next week to try and get this site shut down before any more damage is done.
What the law is is a just reward for the Godless nation we've become. It will get worse.
Basically though, Obamacare is a guillotine. A massive, complex and sadistic guillotine that isn't quite operational yet. Just the sight of it and the peasants are running scared. Insurance companies got one sight of this beast, not even workable yet is sending chills down everyone's spine. The guillotine has bugs, it's still version 0.8 and isn't quite operational yet. The American people's heads are at the bottom. The socialist and communist sheep have been conned into willingly holding their heads under it, expecting the blade to hit everyone but them while they get "enlightment" from the experience. Then there's the Republicans. The conservatives have been screaming bloody murder. The left-hated (read: media) Tea Party has been the most shrill voice all along. The RINO's though, are pissed. They sort of agree the Guillotine sucks and they're going to try to fix the situation. RINO leadership is yelling: "The blade needs oil!", "Train the guys to run it more efficiently!". They're not acting like they want to save us from it, they want it fixed so it actually works.
Obama and Bush are both CIA babies.
The average American can no longer discerne a ravenous wolf from a sheep and those who can't already hate those who can. I'd say we're still in the first half of the vicious cycle.
Yes, but we must savor that ohnosecond when half of the fucktards in congress realized that the superior liar down the street had hung them out to dry.
GONE GALT YET?
anyone seen john lately.
sure miss his honesty, sincerity and his values...
we need more people like him
John is over at HuPo supporting the base. Troll much, do you?
Obozo and congress suffer from the same disease that killed Steve Jobs. "Magical Thinking". Instead of sound science and honesty they pinned their beliefs on some unproven, illogical, bullshit theory. It killed Jobs, It'll killl Obozocare. Fuckem all.

We'll be sure to remember how you held the coats while the boy king and his minions totally screwed us.
"We don’t have a policy problem,” Pelosi told her Democrats in the private meeting, a defense of the law written by Congress. “We have a website problem."
Because writing a law FORCING young people to buy something they don't want or need is great policy...right Nana?
Simply amazing.
It doesn't even do that. They first passed a law that states that if the kids are under 26 and have parents with insurance, they can be covered under the parent's insurance. Why would any of these people even consider? So we are left with a pile of 27-32 years olds, expected to pull the load for every unfit who sighs up? Right!
It's a 12-26 year old manditory dential scene which sky rocketed the rates.
Gimme anutha hit 'a dat hopium!
This is another easy one. The computer program that went array did so because if 10% of the healthly youth didn't pay up, the older sick ones would not be able to get treatment. When the #'s came in closer to 4%, not even the derivatitve traders would touch that with a ten foot pole so the computer automatically cut down the amount of subsidized particpants until the number rose to 10% where the derivatives traders would then take over. Talk about a financially fucked America.
Clinton too. The last 4 have. Reagan - no because they tried to kill him. My guess Poppy was behind that one as he knew about LBJ being part of JFK getting iced.
Carter was in the nuke sub service so he might have been a Company man as well.
So was Jason Russell. Do they program (ala MK Ultra) their own children?
To an extent, yes. Not as drastically as a Monarch slave but, depending on the subjects family background and likely career arc, certain failsafes should be implemented at the very least. If you come from a Company family then more likely than not, at some point unbeknownst to you, you have been tranced and programmed. (Remember the family trip you took to Belize when you and you siblings were in your early teens? Dad's acquaintance, the friendly professorial doctor? Remeber how he took your hand, how he looked at it, spoke softly to you? The strange feeling that trip left with you, oddly nostalgic, slightly disconnected from time? Remember something like that?) The Company itself dates from the second war. The connections of influence and interest and the techniques of secrecy and control predate The Company. Some higher level techniques are ancient, derived from cultures and scientific approaches which would seem odd, unlikely and outright bizarre to the average 21st century american.
Insurance companies built this beast. Their lobbyists wrote much of the law.
Problem is, they got way too greedy, and built in so many customer gouging mechanisms that they didn't know when to stop. (They probably couldn't help themselves, since rent-seeking is pretty much what they exist to do.) They piled so much of this crap into the law that the end result is that no one who is not already sick, and outrageously-expensively so, gets a better deal by signing up than by saying fuck it I'll take my chances.
This is going to create a death spiral for the insurers since the pricing doesn't work without the healthy people in the pool. So they basically offed themselves with their own insatiable greed - "suicide by lobbyist".
"suicide by lobbyist"
very nice
The only benefit to the public I see in this bill.

Karl Denninger does a pretty good job here explaining why ObamaCare is a failure and why insurance is also the problem. Most people forget healthcare pre the insurance racket.
He is hoping ObamCare fails and we get away from the insurance cartel model too. It is actually pretty good video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vE1cN9shMyI
Greg Hunter has good interviews with Dr. Jim Willie too about gold and the dying dollar, Russia the nat gas giant, the Chinese and yaun.
Freddie...
thanks. That's one great viddy.
Denninger nails it.
Very enlightening.
Yes, kudos to KD for this analysis.
KD is a great analyst too bad his personality is so authoritarian his site could be huge but at his core he seems intolerant of wide ranging discussion and no one is that smart, imho.
Agree
And screw this idiotic bill to save ObamaCare, the stupid sonsofbitches should be repealing this trash and if that fails run on a repeal platform and let these fuckers that support this shit twist in the wind! But that won't happen...we are so thoroughly fucked!!!
No, No, No....they will just get printed money from the Federal Reserve and that will fix it.. /SARC
Well thats is what I was wondering reading this. They are going to vote Friday on a Republican sponsored bill to allow people to keep their plans...for one year? Until just PAST the 2014 elections in which Democrats might be handed a well deserved shellacking? Why the hell would any Republican propose such a bill that actually BAILS the dumbasses out? Sometimes I wonder and then I just hang my head in shame. It is like we have willingly returned to the 1970s all over again as if that was some kind of panacea. Funny that Obama started his first term spouting about how we were going to undo the failed policies of the past...when his philosophy represents precisely a return to the failed polcieis of the past. Those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat the mistakes. Well hell Americans cannot even remember the lessons of last week so I do not think there is much hope from that front. We are well and truly forked.
No one on the red/blue teams has any interest in doing that. Until that paradigm is completely abandoned, there is no relief in sight.
The problem with a dictator is that the legislative branches are for show only. It is up to one branch of government to stop Herr Obama and we are two seats away from a total, worse than FDR style Marxist dictatorship.

t0mmyBerg -- keeping looking - don't turn your face away from what youre seeing.
Youre almost there - - - the realization that 'R versus D' is a scam, just a diversion . . to fool people.
They're all whores for the same masters . . . and that ain't you, me, or the American citizenry.
They are partners in the destruction of the American democratic republic, and bringing about a collectivist state. (Calling that 'communist', 'socialist', or 'fascist' doesnt matter - it comes down to "WE ORDER and you serfs OBEY US." Same battle of dictatorship and freedom that has occured throughout history.)
A wasteful exercise in futility.
It's all going to break.
Triage is the answer, and we should do it ourselves.
America is without rule of law or Constitution. Both are routinely ignored from the president down to local police. People assume Obama has good intent for America, but is just wrong on policy. Obamacare is performing exactly as they wanted, to fail. To irrecoverably screw the private insurance industry. After more floundering, they will introduce single payer as a solution. Does anyone think that after the IRS targeting Tea Party groups and NSA domestic spying that criticism of the regime won't result in medical care being withheld?
And don't forget - perhaps worst of all, the Supreme Court routinely ignores the Constitution. John Roberts believes this is just a tax. Millions of insurance policies declared illegal by a tax? We are no longer a Consitutional republic, we have devolved to facism with the facade of the rule-of-law maintained through selective enforcement.
Santa Clause Party says, "if you won't join the Free $hit Army, then fuck you all and keep your shitty, affordable Catastrophic Health Insurance Plans for one more year. Then after the 2014 elections we will really put the screws to you. "
This is about the democrats earning some reelection brownie points.
Jon Stewart will really get serious and ask the tough questions this time. Then Colbert will make some witty remarks and Anderson Cooper will ask the tough questions. The Tea Party will still be the villians while the Godless electorate are still fixated on the next Godless communist to "solve" our problems.
ALL of TV and Hollywood are total shit and backed Obama. Maybe conservative talkers and others will stop pimping for TV and Fox. Murdoch is for amnesty and gun control. We have no friends on TV or Hollywood. RT or Russia Today has the best news on the web. If the American public pulled the plug on TV they might start becoming non-serfs.
I saw an employment ad for al Jazeera US yesterday. Probably a startup atmosphere, could be a chance to get airtime for some new viewpoints, and think what a completely unique conversation starter at cocktail parties. All thanks to algore. Hell, I may send a resume.
Do you think working for AlJazeera would get you onto the "No Fly" list?
Green pill for RT. One of the best sources of news on the web.
I also like nsnbc international (no, it's not affiliated with NBC).
Funny how it never occurs to the D.C. tipsters that they ARE the problem....just like Reagan said.

Prophetic piece there. Say, if we want this thing to burn to the ground then we might just need a few more of these bottomless programs! Let's get it on. Nothing like spending even more money that we ain't got.
The Republicans need to offer up a Repeal Bill only. We went through this shit less than a month ago and the Dems stiffed them. Defund it again.

Like the old grandma says,
"I can't wait to see what good comes out of this."
worse than you think, guys. this is the tip of the bamacare iceberg. individual policies are what, five percent of the total? the company paid mandate was delayed for a year until after the midterm election. most of those policies are going to be canceled too, for not meeting the new standards. think this is a clusterfuck now? wait a year.
I can hardly wait for universal healthcare.

It's very telling how Obama views the American public when he says "raising the debt ceiling does not mean that our debt will increase". This tells me that we are close to the Feds losing control.
the image is good, but a gloved finger should be where the needle stands

Ann Barnhardt claims Obama has regular homosexual sex in the study over the Oval Office. Maybe he does, but you need to prove it. I like Ann, but claims like this without any evidence fall into the bat-shit crazy category.
Barack Obama the man, or whatever his name is, spends much of his time locked in the study above the Oval Office. In that study he watches ESPN, does drugs, and is sexually serviced by male concubines.

“But we have to pass the [health care] bill so that you can find out what’s in it….”— Spoken by Nancy Pelosi in March 2010 when she was Speaker of the House
In the big scheme of things-as in thousands of years of written history-most of humanity hasn't been forced to suffer the burden of a "health-care system"
That would seem to indicate that a cognitive and financial pre-occupation with one, is probably not of long-term material benefit.
Obama is simply an asshole. Nuff said
The website not working is a gift. The real problem is the policy. When the website is fixed the real disaster starts
"We don't have a policy problem,” Pelosi told her Democrats in the private meeting, a defense of the law written by Congress. “We have a website problem.”
Please Lord, Do Not let this fool win another election anywhere on the Planet................and Father, would it be too much to ask to have her sorry ass ran over by a loaded Greyhound bus, and soon, thank you, and AMEN.
“I don’t know how he f—-ed this up so badly,” said one House Democrat who has been very supportive of Obama in the past."
Did YOU read the damned bill before YOU and YOUR colleagues passed the thing!? Obama didn't fuck it up, you in the congress did by crafting the bill and passing it. And John Roberts was complicit in the so called fuck up. Obama may have lied but for crying out loud you all have seen him do it repeatedly over the last five years and yet you feign surprise that it's a big failure. Obama telegraphed his punches even before his first election, said outright he favored single payer. Is it too early for a drink?
it is never too early for a drink, imho, nostrovia!
He's in the rest of the Democrats pockets now...
Not overconfidence...hubris.
Oh come on now, it's not like he invaded another country based on lies and bullshit leading to half a million dead or something,
You can get your crappy plan back now, can 500,000 get their lives back?
O thats right it is Bush's fault.
This post is about how Obama fucked up and you can not change the discussion to Bush you DNC troll.
It would have been hard to be worse than Bush, but Obomber has made it look almost like he isn't even trying
RIP Chief Kessler...

Any different from all the RNC trolls prowling here? You know the ones...
Yes, the ACA was fucked up royally...
Well, chump...let's see if this will compute in your tiny, liberal brain. I have never supported an American war beginning with the Vietnam debacle. And yet, I still think Obama is America's greatest threat. Fuck you, you condescending dipshit.
"You can get your crappy plan back now"
nigga please, first youz dictate that we buy some shit we don't want and now youz tellin the surance confany that they gotta break the fukin lawz da nigga make in orders to give us the "crappy plan" back. leh me guess, you da head nigga in charge of da "Depatment of Movin on Uppity"?
Obama is worse than Bush. Take off your Team hat and look at what he does. Drones. NSA. Expansion of Patriot Act. Agreement with Bush and McCain (before he was elected) that TARP was a good idea. Reappointment of the Bernanke. Appointment of Yellen. He says stuff you like. Get over what he says and pay attention to what he does.
that's because every "leader" of this place will get exponentially worse till this place goes under

"Obama is worse than Bush."
Well let us see shall we?
1. The worst terrorist attack in history
2. He attacks the WRONG country in response, brilliant( 5000 dead 50000 maimed) plus one trillion
3. The 2nd worst financial crash in history. Response, bail them all out at threat of martial law.
4. Wont even mention Afghanistan and Pakistan
And you clowns bitch about Benghazi, wtf?
You owe me money too. Just on fucking principle.
It's the "I know we suck....but you sucked worse" argument. Five years in it's kinda losing it's shine.
Hmm, let's see: A sledgehammer upside the haid, or getting run over by a steamroller -- decisions, decisions...
Redneck,
Bush attacked Iraq for their threat to the Petro Dollar. Same as Obama did to Lybia and tried to do to Syria.
The financial crash of 2008 was brought about by the likes of Clinton, Frank, Dodd, Waters, Waxman, Boxster, Franklin Raines and others complicit in the Community Reinvestment Act.
I'd suggest you do a little research before you open your piehole next time.
Hi Debbie Wasserman-Shultz,
Just wanted to say, in my few years here I've never seen defense or praise for Bush's Iraq catastrophe from a R-team cheerleader. Or damn near any other policies of his Neoliberal posing as a "compassionate conservative" lable. About the only "Conservative" policy (not "Republican" policy mind-you) pushed here are economic and 2nd Amendment. Everything else ends with "McCain is a piece of sh!t" retort.
To make it even easier for you to understand, over 90% of posters here would agree with this statement: W (and Darth Cheney) should be thrown from a helicopter into an active volcano...O (and Crazy Uncle Joe) should be thrown from a helicopter into chum-filled waters with hundreds of circling Great White sharks.
" W (and Darth Cheney) should be thrown from a helicopter into an active volcano...O (and Crazy Uncle Joe) should be thrown from a helicopter into chum-filled waters with hundreds of circling Great White sharks."
I don't see this political system actually changing till some of these politicians meet this fate. Both parties offer up 'candidates' that are like a clone factory that have different rhetoric but vote for the same highly damaging legislation without ever fixing any problems whatsoever.
Make it pay-per-view....that'll eliminate the deficit (well, for one year anyway).

Oh, so that guy was really bad so I should bend over and take it up the tail pipe from this guy? Man that's some solid logic there. And we wonder why we find ourselves in this predicament. The fucking blathering idiots are beginning to out number the rest of us.
Uh...hahu. Uh...ha hu I tied my shoes today! I like pudding! Bush bad! Long live King Barry!
I swear some of these fucktards are beginning to resemble The Walking Dead.
You owe me money.
Kessler, no worries bamster will invade Syria sooner or later, wag the dog..
This house dem is full of shit. You are one of the aholes that put obamacare into law. This guy must be of the same build as pelosi (ie pass it to see whats in it). Now that the guy knows whats in it, he immidiately puts obama under the bus and declares himself blameless?
Yes, how could (he) anyone be so stupid to believe it would ever work and vote for it? He is admitting he was fooled by someone who is too inept to get it right when it was never intended to work, only control and destoy.
Funny how these fkrs will do anything to get re-elected.
Yes, this is a political stunt, by design or on accident, to help get house dems reelected. The President is leaning in to one for the home team. The same jack wagons singing the ACA's praises will now be excoriating Barry for mucking this up.
It will work.
Anyone who stood behind this and the 'if you like your plan you can keep it' lie is so FIRED.
So FIRED, that is the problem. The MFers keep voting them right back in. They bought the bazooka/marshal law/700BILLION shit and voted them right back in....
Nobody read the fucking bill!! That's exactly how things get "fucked up" and people get fucked over........
That's how the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act got passed in Dec. 1999. 3 GOPs + 1 Dem.
TPTB keep shoving new politicos on us the way you keep re-filling a revolver, and yet the masses and most bloggers here love to have a go at each other.
Whaddya expect from sheep and uni-brows? Or shall I be polite and blame it on trolls?
Who has time to read bills? Not John Conyers.

But some in this article might disagree - http://www.wallbuilders.com/libissuesarticles.asp?id=49126
None of them read this shit legislation bar none. Test any one of the politicians and I guarantee you none of them know what is in any legislation that is more than 25 pages long. The purpose of 2,000 to 11,000 page pieces of legislation is to slide all the swiss cheese thru so only the desired outcome is achieved with all loopholes fully intact. How long would it take someone to read a 2,000 page piece of legislation .. couple weeks reading full-time... then understand it? They are all completely corrupt in DC and all are liars, there may be up to 5 to 8 who are worthy of their offices I'm guessing thats it
Yep, if anything gets read at all it's by their staffers, who also recommends/tells them how to vote on it. It's just that these two fuckers I linked above are on record shamelessly admitting it (which earns them an upgrade pass towards the front of the treason line when the time comes).
I saw an example of this many years ago when I came upon on some short profile on TV about Congressman Meeks (D) of NY. This progressive is as dumb as a sack of hammers and I wanted to see how he was going to be portrayed. The only thing I still remember is in one 10 sec shot his Sr. staffer was going over some legislation with Meeks and telling him, TELLING him, how to vote on it. Just verifies what many of us already know - our votes don't mean beans because some unelected staffer we know nothing about is calling the shots for the puppets "voted" into elective office.
How could s/he not know? Wasn't it pretty obvious from the start this legislation was as fucked up as you can get?
Oh, you read it before it was passed?
Didn't need to. When you have 1000+ pages of legaleze written by HMO lawyers and lobbyists, what else do you need to know?
Yes, something on the order of 2000 pages of Obamacare law has become 20,000 pages of regulations...
Who gives a fuck if they don't like him anymore?? Does it get rid of the law? Does it fixes anything in the health care department? Will they impeach his ass? No? That's what I thought.
Do we still have to clap when he comes into town?
I remember a scene of G.W. Bush ducking some thrown shoes, just saying.
yeah but the shoe weighed less than a pound and they missed ... just saying
Too little, too late. People know that Congress and its 'staffers' exempted themselves from this un-Affordable Care Act.
So, it's obvious that only fear of losing votes and facing angry constituents motivates this shallow criticism from Democrats. Democrats who who were quite ok with shafting their constituents. Now the full force of the bureaucratic nightmare of the freak un-Affordable Care Act is dumped on voters.
Democrats fear the rebound on CONgress; lazy, two-faced money grubbing liars. What did Pelosi say about complex bills? 'Passing it beats reading it.' The Democraps and the Repugnants are complacent careerists, obviously.
Those CONgress critters think people are dumb enough to forget all the lies. Not this time.
So they were the ones Obama was referring to when he said, "If you like your health plan, you can keep it."
I thought Pelosi was dead?
If only...
Ding dong the bitch is dead!
more like the walking dead...scary.
In his own words........"Even at Christmas"??
I kinda like the fact that they're eating eachother instead of us...
