Congressmen are better than ordinary people and they deserve the best.

"It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress."

One of the talk shows reported the prez already took care of this, he had the finance dept. fix it by giving a 75% break on healthcare for all congress and their staff.
Believe it was Pelosi that said they were underpaid and that they deserved much more than they were getting. -
Not only should Congress be forced to accept Obamacare, each of them individually should have a copy of the entire law stored in a secure place on their person.

I'm challenging Jedi to show me where the Congressman said "to subject us to ObamaCare JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE."
Not everyone is subjected to ObamaCare. Most people with employer based plans will stay with those plans and have no need to learn about the exchanges.
I feel certain the Congressman knows this and never said those words that are being attributed to him. It's an example of right wing bias. -

If you think health care is expensive now, wait until it's "free". -

Jedi never said anything. Never offered an opinion. He simply referred to an article. Not sure why I.T.L. is getting all bossy.

Do you and Bros. Curtis agree that the reporter is misquoting and/or putting words in the Congressman's mouth? -

(Yes, I got your sarcasm.) -

I cannot speak for Curtis but no I do not. For one the title is not intended to be a direct quote. And second it correctly communicates exactly what he was talking about. -

I'm pretty sure you're not. The article is a gross mis-statement, as not "everybody is subject to ObamaCare". -
