Yes, despite several Republican attempts to have all Americans included in Obamacare they failed in the effort according to a Washington Times editorial today, No Obamacare for Obama! Obama has preached that the new healthcare will affect “every American family.” But Biden has corrected this falsehood and admitted that Obamacare will only apply to “ordinary Americans.” So, if I understand this correctly, it won’t apply to “extraordinary” Americans.
The Republican attempts at inclusiveness were frustrated by unions representing federal workers, the same unions that supported Obamacare. Then they tried to block an exemption for Congressional leadership and personal staff but this too was frustrated and senior officials of the executive branch including the president, vice president and cabinet members were also exempted.
As a result we have congressional staff that drafted the 2000+ page monstrosity exempt from its effects. We have unions who supported it exempt. We have Democratic leaders who voted for it out. And we have the president and senior administration officials exempt.
Bottom line, Obamacare is not good enough for Obama and his family. He’s just too “extraordinary!” Oh to be one of the ruling elite!
