The way the gov offed Martinez was sick! Mid season finale preview said " some will fall". I'm thinking Herschel, Glenn, or Sasha.

ACA was passed on strictly party lines. Apparently, the individual mandate only applies to @8% of the population. With the uproar over the " if you like your plan...", which has been exposed as a premeditated lie, it will be interesting to see the effect on people covered under the employer mandate, which is over 150 million people. Speaking of which, Obama acted completely outside his constitutional authority. Whether it was his unilaterally delaying the employer mandate portion of the act, or sending a letter to insurance commissioners, telling them to retroactively allow people to keep plans which don't comply with the statute's mandate, no president has the authority, short of declaring martial law, to suspend or delay constitutionally derived federal laws or acts. Simply, Obama doesn't get to choose which laws are binding and which are not. He's in impeachable territory, but with a democratic majority senate, this is unlikely. I think we see a massive repudiation of the liberal left at the polls in 2014. With other scandals, such as the NSA spying on citizens, the seeds of libertarian republicanism( not to be confused with the republican party) have been sown. Slowly and inexorably, people are awakening and the desire to throw off the shackles of big, intrusive government is coming to the fore

Amen!

Me too!

A sad state of affairs, given the available resources. It's almost like a government operation,...a complete misappropriation of capital
