Government Blows Dozens of Obamacare Deadlines
The Obama administration apparently has missed half its own deadlines for implementing the health care overhaul, according to a report that suggests the recent delay of a key insurance mandate is hardly an outlier.

The finding was included in a Congressional Research Service report, and first published in an article on Forbes.com.

The nonpartisan congressional research unit examined 82 deadlines that the Affordable Care Act imposed on the administration, and found the administration missed exactly half of them.
Let me be perfectly clear. Doing this in all 57 states IS hard.

#1  Technically speaking, Obama could be impeached for violating the basic articles of the constitution that impose upon him a non-optional duty to effectively execute the laws that Congress passes, instead of unilaterally delaying them by executive fiat.

Imagine if it were President Romney imposing these delay - you'd hear impeachment tlak far and wide in the big media press.

Just sayin' ...

#3  I'm enjoying your graphic contributions, junkiron. Pity the current admin is so...inspirational.

#4  And our 'French Republicans' [term borrowed from Mark Lavin] will obligingly fund it.

* Note the European style railway sleepers in the photo :-(

#5  Sorry, should be 'Levin' with an 'e'.

#6  You could cut that headline down to just the first two words...

#7  Yeah, so what, "pass it, we will read it and find out what's in it", was the mantra for a new tax (see Supreme Court decision). Has anyone ever heard of the US Government repealing a tax ? Not that I can remember, it gets morphed into something else. I for one have no faith in the present administration. We are going to F-up our entire labor, medical and financial systems to try to "insure" 30 Million people have medical insurance ? What ? 10% of the US population of both legal and/or illegal aliens for the whims of the Democrat (Socialist) Party ? And haul the rest of us into this barrel of Shite ?
Yeah, its a train wreck. Wake up before it is too late, look at all the money wasted on this minority program already...

No, I think Romney would scrap Obamacare.

#9  What's the problem? It's just a law. Not like something The One has to concern himself with.

#11  Yes, good stuff junkiron.

#12  Thanx for the feedback SteveS and swksvolFF 2013 . I often wonder if my graphics are not more of a distraction than a contribution.
Photoshop artists do what they do because they love the ability to be creative. But the true joy of creativity is only fully realized with the ability to share your creation with others. If someone else gets enjoyment from your work that truly is the reason and the reward we strive to achieve.
I do appreciate the ability to post here at Rantbug. And I do hope my posts are not in contrast to the ultimate goals of the website itself.

Negative feedback is also appreciated.

I am often surprised at the reaction people have to my graphics. Insensitive or offensive content is not something I am always aware of from another persons perspective. Hopefully someone will always bring that possibility to my attention.

I'm not very good with captions. Suggestion are encouraged. People competing for the best caption sometimes gets pretty humorous and fun.

Good eye Besoker. Your relentless acuity of world affairs consistently astounds me.
