From <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20151114114325\/http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/2013\/10\/23\/obamacare-too-costly-for-rich-colorado-residents-dem-congressman-says\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fox News<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>One of President Obama\u2019s most ardent liberal supporters has defected from ObamaCare.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Jared Polis, D-Boulder, told a Colorado health policy think tank that ObamaCare premiums will be too expensive for some of the wealthiest addresses in America \u2013 ski resorts like Breckenridge and Keystone. He says he\u2019s asking the feds to let them sit out the president\u2019s national health system.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will be encouraging a waiver,\u201d Polis told Health Policy Solutions in a story that ran today. \u201cIt will be difficult for Summit County residents to become insured. For the vast majority, it\u2019s too high a price to pay.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The resorts are in Summit County and Aspen is in a neighboring county, which Polis also represents. He has consistently voted in favor of ObamaCare.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So, you want special privileges for your generally well off liberal constituents? How about NO! We have been telling you progressive statists scum what was going to happen and you wouldn\u2019t listen. Now you can suffer with this disaster right along with the rest of us. Needless to say, not everyone agrees with this Marxist scumbag. According to Colorado Watchdog:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>All of this sounded a bit hypocritical to the Colorado Republican Party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy not seek a waiver or delay for every Coloradoan or every American for that matter?\u201d Colorado GOP Chairman Ryan Call told Watchdog. \u201cLabor unions, big corporations, other politically connected friends of the Obama administration and Summit County are justified in seeking a waiver but what about others?\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/JoinTheWACKOBirdParty.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-12094\" alt=\"JoinTheWACKOBirdParty\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/JoinTheWACKOBirdParty-218x300.jpg?resize=120%2C166\" width=\"120\" height=\"166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/JoinTheWACKOBirdParty.jpg?resize=218%2C300&amp;ssl=1 218w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/JoinTheWACKOBirdParty.jpg?resize=109%2C150&amp;ssl=1 109w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/JoinTheWACKOBirdParty.jpg?resize=400%2C550&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/angry.net\/blog2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/JoinTheWACKOBirdParty.jpg?w=436&amp;ssl=1 436w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 120px) 100vw, 120px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The answer is simple. You are lowly Republithugs and meaningless vermin and not worth doing anything for. Only the Special People who vote for Progressive Liberal Democrats are deserving of anything.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>President Obama has come under fire from Republicans who say Americans will have to endure higher healthcare costs under the Affordable Care Act. While Obama steadfastly maintains that it will be lower costs for all, critics say premiums for the average American not signing up for Obamacare could triple or worse. So far, Democrats have remained mostly united. Polis has become the party\u2019s highest-profile defector.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Obama, like all Progressive Liberal Democrats is an outright liar. They have only one goal, the conversion of the United States of America into a single party socialist dictatorship ruled by the highly educated Progressive Elites. There\u2019s just one problem about all this. The serfs are waking up and starting to make demands, and they are getting angry.
