Interesting to see where the government tax money is going...

not quite the relationship established on the Red States in Poverty thread as technically disasters aren't a state's fault... are they?

Wait a minute. I am confused. Is everybody eligible for this award or is this just for politicos? Because if everybody is eligible than 14road had this thing wrapped up for a while. Myself and Wall have pointed this out several times.

You keep bizarrely posting that you've "pointed out" some sort of hypocrisy of mine. You seem to think calling me a hypocrite means you've pointed out hypocrisy.

You're wrong.

Uh-oh:

Congressional leaders in both parties are engaged in high-level, confidential talks about exempting lawmakers and Capitol Hill aides from the insurance exchanges they are mandated to join as part of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, sources in both parties said.

if Capitol Hill leaders move forward with the plan, they risk being dubbed hypocrites by their political rivals and the American public. By removing themselves from a key Obamacare component, lawmakers and aides would be held to a different standard than the people who put them in office.

congratulations to 14daropad who shows at post #30 that he does know what a hypocrite is.  and a great example at that.

this is the best part:

There is concern in some quarters that the provision requiring lawmakers and staffers to join the exchanges, if it isn’t revised, could lead to a “brain drain” on Capitol Hill, as several sources close to the talks put it.


if this is what it looks like, it deserves its own thread and some media attention.
