Political Quotes

On the recordJuly 8, 2013
The President is playing politics with the American people's health care. According to an editorial published in The Wall Street Journal: The White House seems to regard laws as mere suggestions, including the laws it helped to write. On the heels of last week's 1-year suspension of the Affordable Care Act's employer mandate to offer insurance to workers, the administration is now waiving a new batch of its own ObamaCare prescriptions. These disclosures arrived inside a 606-page catchall final rule that the Health and Human Services Department published on Friday, July 5--a classic Friday news dump, with extra credit for the holiday weekend. HHS now says it will no longer attempt to verify individual eligibility for insurance subsidies and instead will rely on self-reporting, with minimal efforts to verify if the information consumers provide is accurate. House Republicans have warned for years of the failure of ObamaCare-- that it is too unworkable, too overreaching, and too destructive for American families. House Republicans have voted 37 times to repeal or to defund ObamaCare. The American people deserve a health care system based on the doctor-patient relationship, not on one mandated by a government. In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism. ____________________
