The House of Representatives will investigate the Obama administration's sudden decision to delay the employer mandate in Obamacare, leaders in the House Energy and Commerce Committee announced today.
"House Energy and Commerce Committee leaders today wrote to Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, and Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, requesting documents and information regarding the administration’s decision to delay full implementation of the health care law’s employer mandate for one year. The Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Tim Murphy (R-PA), has held a series of hearings on the president's health care law and will examine the administration's delay of the employer mandate in the coming weeks," reads a press release from the committee.

Law suits coming.
You really got to love, Obama !!
The more he steps into "IT".....the bigger the mess he makes !!
Obama is a putz, a puppet, a feckless, shallow man-child who possessed the right demographic characteristics to take electoral advantage of white guilt.
Nonethe less, whomever (I think it's Soros) is pulling Obama's strings, just gave Obamacare opponents enough time to get to the SC and use the poison pill Roberts put into his ruling as a means of killing Obamacare.
Zitat“Just as the law was crafted out of sight from the American people, the administration is again taking care of some interests behind closed doors while struggling Americans are left to pay for the looming rate shock and grapple with the law’s complex mandates. Despite delays and missed deadlines, administration officials had repeatedly testified before Congress that they were still on schedule to implement the law. Yesterday, they admitted that wasn’t the case, and it’s clear we have no idea the full scope of delays and disarray that may be coming. The American public deserves answers,” said full committee Chairman Fred Upton (R-MI).
making it up as they go along .......is this even LEGAL ??
I suspect they want to delay the implementation so that by the time it kicks in and the effects on unemployment figures are known that it will get blamed on an alleged Republican administration.
That's how these games are played by the pros.

corruption ?? or incompetency ??
more like a combination of both !!
Mostly incompetence.
Reid originated the bill in the Senate.....that's wrong.
Pelosi pushed it through the House.....in a way which was also wrong.
Now, with this capricious decision which deals with various segments of the citizenry unequally under the law, I think the Supremes finally have enough to enjoin HHS from implementing with an instruction to start over.
