GOP Leaders Want Obamacare’s Individual Mandate Delayed Too

If the White House can grant a one-year delay for employers – as the administration did just last week – individuals should get the same consideration, House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio and other senior Republicans said in a letter to the president.

“Your decision to delay one part of the law affecting employers and leave in place provisions regulating individual and family health care creates many new questions and concerns,” the GOP leaders wrote. “We agree with you that the burden was overwhelming for employers, but we also believe American families need the same relief.”

    This delay is an obvious political ploy to save the midterm elections for the Progressives, and should be the perfect chance for the GOP to make some serious points pointing this out.

    To not only go along with this, but to actually request that even more 'heat' be taken off of this administration, is lunacy.

    Where is Newt Gingrich when we REALLY need him?
