Happy Birthday to Obamacare

The first anniversary of Obamacrap is just a few days away, so we are jumping the gun a bit. I hope the folks in DC don't mind.

We took our cue from Kaiser Health News, so don't think it is our fault for suffering the shame of premature emasculation.

A quick read of their news shows how you view the law depends on whether your ox is being gored or not.

a coalition of conservative groups is hosting a pizza party in the Capitol Visitor Center Monday to hash out their opposition to the law

Probably a healthy veggie pizza.

The Senate Budget Committee will take a look at some policies to save money on Tuesday, including proposals that would turn part of Medicare into a voucher program and redefine Washington's relationship with the states under Medicaid.

Redefine Washington's role. Somehow I don't think it means less interference from the feds.

The House Oversight and Government Reform Health Subcommittee will take a closer look at waivers under the health care reform law on Tuesday, examining how the Obama administration has used them for some employers. The waivers — temporary changes for states, employers, or companies in the year-old law — have become a political flash point, with Republicans using them to argue that the law is not working and should be repealed
This is total nonsense. Increase the pace of waiver approval and before you know it, no one will be subject to Obamacrap.

A handful of House Democrats are backing a resolution that would require all members of Congress to disclose whether they receive health insurance through the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program. A number of high-profile Democrats, including Sen. Charles Schumer of New York, and progressive groups have routinely hammered House Republicans for accepting government health benefits while opposing the reform law
How about this? Kill benefits for all Congress critters. No taxpayer funded health insurance for any of them and make them buy from one of the online vending machines. That will give them an idea of what kind of problem they have created for their subjects.

Of course any parent knows what follows the first birthday.

The terrible two's . . .
