[red states rule]

OK who is going to break the news to Obama's loyal supporters?

I am sure they will be shocked - unlike the rest of us who said this would happen

Now, in all fairness, he did say 'in part'.

You and I know that that 'part' is like 95%. The Dems will claim it's only the 5%, and the rest is the big, mean, nasty insurance companies they are protecting us from.

Dumb asses.

Dumb asses.

and Obamacare is only "part" of the reason millions of full time workers are now part time workers

and the scary thing is, Obamacare is not fully implemented yet and look at the damage it is causing top the economy and budget

Even Obama's hometown paper is talking about the bust Obamacare is turning out to be

President Barack Obama on Tuesday sought to tamp down those fears, conceding "there will still be, you know, glitches and bumps."


Glitches or a train wreck? Bet on the wreck. We're hurtling toward this massive restructuring of the health care insurance market, and no one has confidence about what will happen. There will be massive consequences, intended and unintended.


Estimates of Obamacare's price tag keep rocketing. Insurance premiums are jumping across the country, as insurers prepare to cover millions more people, many of whom have complicated health problems.


That oft-repeated promise that you'll be able to keep your existing coverage? Sure, as long as your employer doesn't decide to dump that coverage and pay the federal penalties. Many businesses seem to be leaning toward doing just that. Some are holding down work hours so they won't have to provide health coverage. Others simply aren't hiring.


No wonder the members of Congress are trying to dodge the impact of Obamacare.


The government's Office of Personnel Management, which administers federal employee benefits, is expected to rule on whether lawmakers and their staff would be eligible for federal exchange subsidies or somehow can keep their current federal health benefits.


If they get such a break, Democrats will have to explain to outraged voters why the new health care system they billed as a godsend for Americans is ... not good enough for Congress.


We're all on the same train. Hold tight.
