The Obama administration may give Americans extra time to sign up for health insurance under the Affordable Care Act, postponing when penalties for failing to buy coverage will go into effect, MarketWatch has learned.

The health care law requires most people to have health insurance by Jan. 1, 2014, but allows for “short coverage gaps” of up to three months before imposing the penalty, which is $95 or 1% of an individual’s income (whichever is greater) next year.
That means someone must be covered by March 31, an official with the Department of Health and Human Services confirmed, which is the final day that people will be able to purchase health insurance on the public exchanges, or marketplaces, created by the ACA.
More proof that the GOPe is a worthless and incompetent group of idiots. If the Senate would have held firm on Zerocare, there would have been plenty of Rats to join in and force Zeros hand. Thanks to Mitch and Juan and all the other candy asses, the Rats will be able to say they are the ones who saved us from this disaster.
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) took a $2 Billion dollar bribe to destroy the country that our kids and grand kids will be paying for.

Well said!!! the Rats were feeling the pressure too!!! Nobody admits that. It was the beginning of sign-up failure drama.
Right. Joe Manchin was running around on every news outlet basically saying he was on board with a delay while McConnel, Corker and the other spinless jerks were doing all they could to sink the effort. Once again, we have tangible proof they are lying POS.

They did.
No Republican ever voted for ObamaCare or failed to vote for its repeal.
Well..wouldnt this be like saying, THE REPUBLICANS WERE RIGHT!!!!
The republicans and those on their side saw this. Lets not forget..we had 16 days of this disaster before they folded..and that was only because of that rush for the debt bullchit. I believe they backed down because of that...not to mention, they were taking the heat for this fiasco.
But now.......now.....anyone with any smarts can see that Oblahblah has NO choice. You cant fine someone for something they CANT buy!!
Like I said in so other post. This is like watching a soap opera or series. Ya cant wait to see whats coming next.

I'll bet you a dollar he doesn't back down. What does he care about vulnerable Rats in the Senate? From all accounts, Zero is only concerned about Zero.

Not to mention Wolf Blitzer and Jon Stewart! How often do we get those two on our side? The delay strategy had great merit and it would have given muscle to the opposition. Instead we got locks and dams in KY.
TM is something far, far worse.. I'd advise you all not to hang around with me.
