> the Supreme Court are fine with that. 

So... SC Judges on the right are lackeys, but those on the left aren't when there's a left-wing President?

Explain the difference.

Name ONE President who HASN'T ignored the Constitution. (see below)

The Supreme Court makes those decisions, stupid.

What... you think all laws came from the burning bush or the stone tablets?

Gawd, what an idiot.

Name the laws Trump is ignoring and tell us that THAT argument in front of the Supreme Court is unprecedented.

Burning the American Flag was NOT written in stone, before the Supreme Court handed down a decision on it 35 fucking years ago.

How many Amendments are you fags on the left trying to get reversed, because they're "old" in your eyes?

WHO ever said a Amendment was NEVER supposed to be argued again OR reversed?


Obama Ignored What The Constitution Says SO Many Fucking Times

===============================================================================

Cronyism, Hypocrisy, Waste, Etc.


401) "Health insurance cancellation notices soar above Obamacare enrollment rates"

On October 24, 2013, the Daily Caller reported:

Health insurance cancellation notices soar above Obamacare enrollment rates

Hundreds of thousands of Americans who purchase their own health insurance have received cancellation notices since August because 
the plans do not meet Obamacare's requirements.

The number of cancellation notices greatly exceed the number of Obamacare enrollees.

402) Was still falsely claiming that people could keep their insurance on October 28, 2013

online.

During the first 24 hours after the Obamacare website went online, only six people used the website to enroll in Obamacare.

409) Obama falsely blamed insurance companies for canceling policies that did not meet Obamacare's minimum requirements

Obamacare requires all insurance policies to cover pre-existing conditions, maternity care, treatment for heroin addiction, and 
certain other things.

Therefore, based on simple logic, any policies that do not cover these things are rendered illegal by Obamacare, and must be 
canceled.

The Washington Post said of this:

"Beginning Jan. 1, the new plans must cover 10 essential benefits including pediatric care, prescription drugs, mental-health 
services and maternity care. In general, policies that don't offer those can't be sold after 2013."

However, after insurance companies canceled these policies, Obama blamed the cancellations on the insurance companies instead of on 
Obamacare.

410) Obama administration told insurance company executives not to criticize Obamacare

On October 28, 2013, Valerie Jarrett, Obama's senior advisor, tweeted:

"Nothing in Obamacare forces people out of their health plans."

However, the very next day, CBS News reported:

CBS News has learned more than two million Americans have been told they cannot renew their current insurance policies - more than 
triple the number of people said to be buying insurance under the new Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare.

415) Kathleen Sebelius said the Obamacare website "has never crashed" at the exact same time that it was crashing

On October 30, 2013, while giving federal testimony on the Obamacare website, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius 
said that the Obamacare website

419) Threatened to prosecute someone for selling "Department of Homeland Stupidity" coffee mugs

Merchant Dan McCall sells items that parody the U.S. government, such as coffee mugs that say "Department of Homeland Stupidity." 
Although such parody speech is protected by the first amendment, the Obama administration sent him a "cease and desist" letter, and 
threatened to prosecute him if he did not stop selling the products.

420) Monitored phone calls and emails regarding future Pope Francis

In October 2013, it was reported that during late 2012 and early 2013, the Obama administration had monitored phone calls and 
emails which concerned future Pope Francis before and during the Vatican conclave at which he was chosen to be the next Pope.

421) Used drones to kill dozens of civilians in Yemen and Pakistan

In October 2013, the Washington Post reported that Obama, the Commander-in-Cheif of the U.S. military, had used drones to kill at 
least 57 civilians in Yemen, and at least 31 civilians in Pakistan. In December 2013, the Guardian reported that an additional 15 
civilians in Yemen had been killed by a U.S. drone.

422) High ranking Obama administration official said the U.S. is an "Islamic country with an Islamically compliant constitution"

Mohamed Elibiary is a member of the Department of Homeland Security Advisory Council. In October 2013, a Twitter user asked him:

 Elibiary responded by Tweeting:

 "America and yes I do consider the United States of America an Islamic country with an Islamically compliant constitution. Move 
On!"

423) Obama "puts a chill on what is really a healthy discourse between journalists and their sources"

In October 2013, New York Times executive editor Jill Abramson said:

"... the Obama administration has initiated seven criminal leak investigations... these seven leak investigations are more than 
double, all of the criminal leak investigations in all administrations before the Obama administration. And it puts a chill on what 
is really a healthy discourse between journalists and their sources. And it's our sources who mainly risk going to prison."

424) Obamacare website sent some people the eligibility letters of other people

In November 2013, it was reported that the Obamacare website had sent some people the eligibility letters of other people - people 
who were total strangers, who lived in other states.

425) Falsely said that his promise of letting people keep their insurance had included the words "if it hasn't changed since the 
law passed"

On June 15, 2009, Obama said:

"That means that no matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people: If you like your doctor, 
you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, 
period. No one will take it away, no matter what."

However, on November 4, 2013, Obama said:

"Now, if you have or had one of these plans before the Affordable Care Act came into law and you really liked that plan, what we 
said was you can keep it if it hasn't changed since the law passed."

426) Three people built a healthcare exchange website that works

On November 2, 2013, it was reported that three people in San Francisco - George Kalogeropoulos, Ning Liang, and Michael Wasser - 
had read about the defective Obamacare website - which had cost $634 million - and decided to try and build their own health care 
exchange website that actually worked. And they succeeded. Their website actually works. It's located at 
http://www.thehealthsherpa.com/

427) White House gave itself waiver which allowed the Obamacare website to go online, despite the fact that it was deemed to be a 
high security risk

Four days before the defective Obamacare website went online, the White House gave itself a waiver which allowed the website to go 
online, despite the fact that it was deemed to be a high security risk.

428) Denied saying that people could keep their insurance even though it was on video from more than 20 different occasions

Obama denied saying that people could keep their insurance even though it was on video from more than 20 different occasions. The 
video of him saying it more than 20 different times can be seen at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCUpJDzyRnY

429) Broke his promise to "call out" people who lie about Obamacare

In September 2009, Obama said:

"If you misrepresent what's in this plan, we will call you out."

However, as of November 2013, Obama has not "called himself out" for lying about what was in Obamacare. He has not "called himself 
out" for falsely saying that people could keep their insurance. He has not "called himself out" for falsely saying that families' 
premiums would fall by $2,500 by the end of his first term. He has not "called himself out" on any of his many Obamacare lies that 
are on this list.

430) Gave CGI Federal new contracts after the launch of its defective Obamacare website

CGI Federal is the company that created the defective Obamacare website, which went online October 1, 2013. After that date, the 
Obama administration gave new contracts to the company.

431) Obama apologized - not for lying - but for the fact that people believed his lie

On November 7, 2013, NBC News reported:

President Obama said Thursday that he is "sorry" that some Americans are losing their current health insurance plans as a result of 
the Affordable Care Act, despite his promise that no one would have to give up a health plan they liked.

"I am sorry that they are finding themselves in this situation based on assurances they got from me," he told NBC News in an 
exclusive interview at the White House.

"We've got to work hard to make sure that they know we hear them and we are going to do everything we can to deal with folks who 
find themselves in a tough position as a consequence of this."

432) On November 8, 2013, the White House website still said, "If you like your plan you can keep it"

On November 8, 2013, the White House website still said, "If you like your plan you can keep it"

433) Obama used fraudulent accounting to overstate the number of people who had "enrolled" in Obamacare

In November 2013, the Washington Post reported:

Who counts as an Obamacare enrollee? The Obama administration settles on a definition.

The fight over how to define the new health law's success is coming down to one question: Who counts as an Obamacare enrollee?

Health insurance plans only count subscribers as enrolled in a health plan once they've submitted a payment. That is when the 
carrier sends out a member card and begins paying doctor bills.

When the Obama administration releases health law enrollment figures later this week, though, it will use a more expansive 
definition. It will count people who have purchased a plan as well as those who have a plan sitting in their online shopping cart 
but have not yet paid.

434) In June 2010, the Obama administration estimated that 93 million people would lose their insurance because of Obamacare

In June 2010, the Obama administration estimated that 93 million people would lose their insurance because of Obamacare.

from Congress.

438) Obamacare website gave someone's password, address, and social security number to three complete strangers

in St. Louis, Missouri, to three complete strangers.

440) "4 Things The US Government Accomplished In Less Time Than A Working Obamacare Website"

In November 2013, camharris.us reported:

4 Things The US Government Accomplished In Less Time Than A Working Obamacare Website

From the day that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act went into effect to the morning that the federal healthcare 
exchange went live, 1288 days passed. 3 years, 6 months, and 8 days. In all that time, our federal government could not construct a 
website that actually worked, and we are still waiting for a final product.

Here are 4 things the United States government accomplished in less time than it has taken to build a working website:

 1. We Fought World War I

April 6, 1917-November 11, 1918

1 years, 7 months, 6 days

2. We Fought A Bigger War

December 7, 1941-May 8, 1945

3 years, 5 months, 2 days

3. We Built The Bomb

June 17, 1942-July 16,1945

3 years, 1 month

4. We Orbited A Man Around The Earth

October 7, 1958-February 20, 1962

3 years, 4 months, 13 days

441) Falsely claimed credit for the increase in domestic oil production

During Obama's Presidency, domestic oil production increased, and the Obama administration claimed credit for it. However, this 
increase only happened on privately owned land and state owned land, which Obama had no control over. On land that is owned by the 
federal government, oil production actually went down.

442) Falsely said "I actually respect the Constitution."

In 2007, Obama said:

"I actually respect the Constitution."

However, this list contains a huge number of examples which prove that Obama's statement is false.

443) Senator Obama repeatedly voted in favor of funding the Iraq War

In March 2007, the Boston Globe reported:

Obama defends votes in favor of Iraq funding

Senator Barack Obama yesterday defended his votes on behalf of funding the Iraq war

Obama has voted for all of the president's war funding requests since coming to the Senate

444) Banned Navy SEALs from wearing the "Don't Tread on Me" Navy Jack patch on their uniforms

For more than 200 years, the "Don't Tread on Me" Navy Jack flag has been a well respected symbol of the U.S. Navy.

However, in October 2013, the Obama administration banned Navy SEALs from wearing a patch of it on their uniforms.

445) Gave 655 "tax refunds" to a single address in Lithuania, and 343 to a single address in Shanghai

In 2012, the Obama administration gave 655 "tax refunds" to a single address in Lithuania, and 343 to a single address in Shanghai.

446) Banned the linking of terrorism to radical Islam during training of anti-terrorism agents

Although the Fort Hood shooter, the shoe bomber, and underwear bomber, and 100% of the 9-11 terrorists were all radical Muslims, 
the Obama administration enacted a ban on associating terrorism with radical Islam during training exercises of anti-terrrorism 
agents.

447) During Obamacare's first month, only 106,185 people enrolled

On November 12, 2013, it was reported that during October 2013, only 106,185 people had enrolled in Obamacare. And even this 
pathetically low number is fraudulently overstated, because it includes people who had left insurance policies in their shopping 
cart without paying for them. No legitimate online retailer counts unpaid items left in the shopping cart as a sale.

448) Less than 1% of Massachusetts citizens who lost their insurance because of Obamacare have signed up for a new policy at the 
Obamacare website

On November 9, 2013, the Boston Herald reported:

Just weeks before a Jan. 1 enrollment deadline, state officials admitted yesterday that just 1 percent of the 150,000 Bay Staters 
facing canceled heath insurance under Obamacare rules have signed up for new plans.

Massachusetts Health Connector officials told the Herald that only 549 applicants - out of the 150,000 Bay Staters forced to switch 
their health plans to comply with Obamacare rules - are poised to receive insurance through the new system.

449) "The Obamacare Exchange Scorecard: Around 100,000 Enrollees And Five Million Cancellations"

On November 12, 2013, Forbes reported:

The Obamacare Exchange Scorecard: Around 100,000 Enrollees And Five Million Cancellations

HHS has released the official numbers here. The HHS report states that only 26,794 people enrolled in the federal exchange-which 
amounts to 23 per state per day-and 79,391 enrolled in the state-based exchanges, for a total of 106,185.

In the market for individually-purchased health insurance, more than 4.8 million Americans have received notices that their 
preexisting plans are soon to be illegal, and will be cancelled. Many more cancellation notices are imminent.

450) Obama told insurance companies to break the law

On November 14, 2013, after insurance companies had canceled policies that did not meet the minimum requirements of Obamacare, 
Obama told them to restore these policies. However, he did this without Congress voting to approve these changes to Obamacare. The 
President does not have the legal authority to change a law that was passed by Congress, without those changes first being approved 
by Congress.

451) Obama falsely said "In the first month alone, we've seen more than 100 million Americans already successfully enroll in the 
new insurance plans"

On November 18, 2013, Obama said:

"In the first month alone, we've seen more than 100 million Americans already successfully enroll in the new insurance plans."

In reality, the actual number was 106,185.

452) Jessica Sanford, whom Obama had cited as an Obamacare success story, later said she could not afford to buy an Obamacare 
policy

Jessica Sanford  is a a self-employed single mother from Washington state, who earns slightly less than $50,000 a year, and has not 
had health insurance for 15 years.

On October 21, 2013, Obama cited Sanford as an Obamacare success story, because she would be able to purchase an Obamacare policy 
for herself and her son for only $169 per month.

However, a month later, it was reported that the Obamacare website had quoted the wrong price for Sanford. Her true, actual price 
was $621. She said that she could not afford this, and that she would just pay the penalty instead.

453) Video shows students at historically black college complaining that Obamacare caused them to lose their insurance

Bowie University is a historically black college in Maryland. This video shows students from the college complaining about how 
Obamacare caused them to lose their insurance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPuFt6g_0a8

454) "Obama brings chilling effect on journalism"

In October 2013, Associated Press reported:

Obama brings chilling effect on journalism

A report finds the U.S. government's aggressive prosecution of leaks and efforts to control information are having a chilling 
effect on journalists and government whistle-blowers.

The Committee to Protect Journalists released its first examination of U.S. press freedoms Thursday, focusing on changes under the 
Obama administration.

Leonard Downie Jr., a former executive editor of The Washington Post, wrote the 30-page analysis entitled "The Obama Administration 
and the Press." Downie interviewed reporters and editors who described a chilling effect in which "government officials are 
increasingly afraid to talk to the press."

Those suspected of discussing classified information are subject to investigation, lie-detector tests and scrutiny of telephone and 
email records.

455) Sued a trucking company that fired Muslim truck drivers for refusing to drive trucks carrying alcoholic beverages

In May 2013, the Obama administration sued Star Transport, Inc., a trucking company based in Morton, Illinois, because it fired 
Muslim truck drivers who had refused to drive trucks that were carrying alcoholic beverages.

456) Gave personal information of thousands of bookstore customers to dozens of federal agencies

In November 2013, it was reported that the Obama administration had given the names, social security numbers, and other personal 
information of thousands of bookstore customers to dozens of fedeal agencies, including the IRS, CIA, NSA, and FDA.

457) Created fake unemployment statistics before the 2012 election

Soon before the 2012 election, the Obama administration created fake statistics to make the unemployment rate appear lower than it 
actually was.

458) "White House blocks access to Obama events, news groups say"

In November 2013, McClatchy reported:

White House blocks access to Obama events, news groups say

The nation's largest news organizations lodged a complaint Thursday against the White House for imposing unprecedented limitations 
on photojournalists covering President Barack Obama, which they say have harmed the public's ability to monitor its own government.

The organizations accuse the White House of banning photojournalists from covering Obama at some events, and then later releasing 
its own photos and videos of the same events.

"Journalists are routinely being denied the right to photograph or videotape the president while he is performing his official 
duties," according to a letter the organizations sent to the White House. "As surely as if they were placing a hand over a 
journalist's camera lens, officials in this administration are blocking the public from having an independent view of important 
functions of the executive branch of government."

"You are only seeing what they want you to see," said Lucy Dalglish, the dean of the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the 
University of Maryland.

the news organizations stressed that they're referring only to presidential activities of a "fundamentally public nature," not 
private or restricted events, including ones that may affect national security.

Examples cited in the letter are Obama's meetings with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus on July 10, former Secretary of State 
Hillary Clinton on July 29 and Pakistani human rights activist Malala Yousafzai on Oct. 11.

In each case, journalists weren't allowed - and sometimes were unaware - of the event. The White House later released written 
summaries of the events, along with photos taken by a government photographer.

On Thursday, the presidents of the American Society of News Editors and the Associated Press Media Editors sent a letter to their 
members urging them to stop using handout photos and video from the White House.

"We must accept that we, the press, have been enablers," the letter says. "We urge those of you in news organizations to 
immediately refrain from publishing any of the photographs or videos released by the White House, just as you would refuse to run 
verbatim a press release from them."

Harry Walker, the director of the McClatchy-Tribune Photo Service, said opening access to events was "the foundation for 
journalism, not just photojournalism."

The letter was signed by 38 news organizations, including all the major broadcast and cable networks, wire services, online 
services and newspapers, including The New York Times, The Washington Post and the McClatchy Co., which owns 30 daily newspapers 
across the nation.

459) Three days after the Egyptian government murdered dozens of Egyptian civilians, the Obama administration announced it would 
give military aid to the Egyptian government, which, soon afterward, murdered hundreds of additional Egyptian civilians

On April 12, 2013, it was reported that the Obama administration had just given four F-16 fighter jets to Egypt, and that it had 
also given them eight others on earlier dates.

On July 8, 2013, it was reported that the Egyptian government had murdered at least 51 Egyptian civilians who had been protesting 
against the Egyptian government.

Three days later, it was reported that the Obama administration would be giving four additional F-16 fighter jets to the Egyptian 
government.

On July 27, 2013, it was reported that the Egyptian government had murdered at least 72 additional Egyptian civilians who had been 
protesting against the Egyptian government.

On August 15, 2013, it was reported that the Egyptian government had murdered more than 600 additional Egyptian civilians who had 
been protesting against the Egyptian government.

460) Spent $1.5 million to help women in Brazil quit smoking

In August 2013, it was reported that the Obama administration would be spending $1.5 million to help women in Brazil quit smoking.

461) "NSA broke privacy rules thousands of times per year, audit finds"

In August 2013, the Washington Post reported:

NSA broke privacy rules thousands of times per year, audit finds

The National Security Agency has broken privacy rules or overstepped its legal authority thousands of times each year since 
Congress granted the agency broad new powers in 2008, according to an internal audit and other top-secret documents.

Most of the infractions involve unauthorized surveillance of Americans or foreign intelligence targets in the United States, both 
of which are restricted by statute and executive order.

The NSA audit obtained by The Post, dated May 2012, counted 2,776 incidents in the preceding 12 months of unauthorized collection, 
storage, access to or distribution of legally protected communications.

462) Announced plans to illegally regulate greenhouse gas emissions without approval from Congress

In August 2013, the Obama administration announced that it planned to regulate greenhouse gas emissions without approval from 
Congress. Without approval from Congress, Obama's actions would be illegal.

463) Refused to answer question about whether or not people who don't buy insurance should be put in jail

The Obama administration argued in front of the Supreme Court that the Obamacare mandate was a tax. Obama hired 16,500 new IRS 
agents to run Obamacare. In this video, ABC News asked Obama whether or not he thinks that people who don't buy insurance should be 
put in jail. Obama refused to answer the question. Even after the interviewer asked Obama the question a second time, Obama still 
refused to answer it.

464) An estimated 70% of California doctors will not participate in Obamacare

In December 2013, the California Medical Association estimated that 70% of California doctors would not be participating in 
Obamacare.

465) California's Obamacare website gave out the contact information of tens of thousands of people without their permission

In December 2013,  it was reported that California's Obamacare website had given private insurance agents the names, addresses, 
phone numbers, and email addresses of tens of thousands of people without their permission.

466) Made it easy for a future Republican President to give every U.S. citizen a permanent Obamacare waiver, without approval from 
Congress

The President does not have any legal authority to change the law without those changes first being approved by Congress. However, 
this list contains many examples of Obama making changes to Obamacare without approval from Congress. Some of these changes involve 
Obama giving Obamacare waivers to unions who supported the passage of Obamacare. Other changes include Obama delaying certain parts 
of Obamacare. Obama made these changes illegally, because they were not approved by Congress. With a small number of exceptions, 
Democrats have not criticized Obama for doing this.

Therefore, in the future, if a Republican President were to give permanent Obamacare waivers to every U.S. citizens without 
approval from Congress, the vast majority of Democrats would be hypocrites if they objected to it.

467) Obamacare encourages patients to rig the system to rip off doctors, repeatedly, year after year after year

In November 2013, Forbes reported:

Obamacare has... a 90-day grace period. This means people can buy an Obamacare policy, have costly procedures done and then cancel 
the policy within 90 days. If the cancellation comes during the first 30 days, the insurer is responsible for trying to collect 
payment, but after that, doctors are on their own. They would have to spend time and money chasing patients for payments. 
California Healthline reported that deadbeats "would not receive a fine, a premium rate increase or a repayment order. They also 
would not be barred from purchasing another subsidized plan during the next enrollment period." No other type of health insurance 
has a 90-day grace period like this.

468) Tech experts said that a properly working Obamacare website should not have cost more than $10 million, whereas the defective 
version built by Michelle Obama's incompetent Princeton classmate had actually cost $634 million

Instead of hiring competent programmers to create the Obamacare website, Obama hired CGI Federal, a company that was run by Toni 
Townes-Whitley, who attended Princeton University with Michelle Obama. When the defective Obamacare website went online on October 
1, 2013, it had already cost $634 million.

However, David Kennedy, president of the technology firm TrustedSec, said that even if the Obamacare website had worked properly, 
it should not have cost more than $10 million. Luke Chung, president and founder of the technology firm FMS, said he agreed with 
Mr. Kennedy.

469) Harry Reid, Barbara Boxer, and several other Democratic Senators who voted for Obamacare, have exempted their own staff from 
Obamacare

In December 2013, Yahoo News reported:

Harry Reid exempts some of his Senate staff from Obamacare exchanges

One of the biggest public supporters of the Affordable Care Act has reportedly decided that some of his staff should be exempted 
from the new law.

CNN reports that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is the only top congressional leader to exempt some of his staff from having to 
buy insurance through the Affordable Care Act exchanges.

Yahoo News has reached out to the offices of all 100 U.S. senators to see if any other members have exempted committee staff from 
the federal exchange. So far, the offices of 42 senators have responded to our inquiry, with 37 saying that the senator and their 
entire staff will switch over to the exchanges in January.

The offices of Ron Wyden, Tim Johnson, Barbara Boxer, Patty Murray and Thomas Carper, all Democrats, said they were exempting some 
of their staff. Reid, a Democrat from Nevada, has not responded.

Price Tag"

The Obama administration held a contest where it asked people to make videos to support Obamacare. The Obama administration awarded 
first prize to a video called "Forget About the Price Tag." The video can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpRNAkG-Nx0

471) Broke his promise to have the Obamacare website fixed by November 30, 2013

On October 25, 2013, White House spokesman Jeffrey Zients  said:

"By the end of November, the vast majority of consumers will be able to successfully and smoothly enroll through Healthcare.gov"

However, on December 1, 2013, the New York Times reported:

Insurers Claim Health Website Is Still Flawed

The problem is that the systems that are supposed to deliver consumer information to insurers still have not been fixed. And with 
coverage for many people scheduled to begin in just 30 days, insurers are worried the repairs may not be completed in time.

"Until the enrollment process is working from end to end, many consumers will not be able to enroll in coverage," said Karen M. 
Ignagni, president of America's Health Insurance Plans, a trade group.

The issues are vexing and complex. Some insurers say they have been deluged with phone calls from people who believe they have 
signed up for a particular health plan, only to find that the company has no record of the enrollment.

472) Democratic aides who supported the passage of Obamacare said their new Obamacare premiums are "simply unacceptable"

In December 2013, Politico reported:

Older Hill aides shocked by Obamacare prices

Veteran House Democratic aides are sick over the insurance prices they'll pay under Obamacare, and they're scrambling to find a 
cure.

"In a shock to the system, the older staff in my office (folks over 59) have now found out their personal health insurance costs 
(even with the government contribution) have gone up 3-4 times what they were paying before," Minh Ta, chief of staff to Rep. Gwen 
Moore (D-Wis.), wrote to fellow Democratic chiefs of staff in an email message obtained by POLITICO. "Simply unacceptable."

In the email, Ta noted that older congressional staffs may leave their jobs because of the change to their health insurance.

473) Members of Congress and their staff are exempt from the income limits for Obamacare subsidies that apply to everyone else

Most people are eligible for Obamacare subsidies only if their income is no more than 400% of the poverty level. For a family of 
four, 400% of the poverty level is $94,200. A family of four with income higher than that amount it not eligible for an Obamacare 
subsidy.

However, members of Congress and their staff are exempt from this limit. Members of Congress are paid $174,000 a year. Because of 
their special exemption, a middle aged member of Congress who is married and has children, will get a special Obamacare subsidy of 
$10,000.

474) Obamacare website often doesn't tell insurance companies about customers who "bought" insurance

On December 1, 2013, the New York Times reported:

Some insurers say they have been deluged with phone calls from people who believe they have signed up for a particular health plan, 
only to find that the company has no record of the enrollment.

475) Obama's nominee to head the IRS has "little tax experience"

In December 2013, Reuters reported:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A Senate panel hearing on President Barack Obama's nominee to head the Internal Revenue Service was set to 
resume Wednesday after it was abruptly halted on Tuesday at a Republican senator's request, committee aides said.

John Koskinen, a 74-year-old lawyer with little tax experience chosen by Obama to take over the beleaguered IRS, traveled up to 
Capitol Hill to face the Senate Finance Committee, but the session did not last long.

476) Obama said we should raise the minimum wage, but barackobama.com advertised for "unpaid" interns

In February 2013, Obama said:

"Tonight, let's declare that in the wealthiest nation on Earth, no one who works full-time should have to live in poverty, and 
raise the federal minimum wage to $9.00 an hour. This single step would raise the incomes of millions of working families. It could 
mean the difference between groceries or the food bank; rent or eviction; scraping by or finally getting ahead. For businesses 
across the country, it would mean customers with more money in their pockets. In fact, working folks shouldn't have to wait year 
after year for the minimum wage to go up while CEO pay has never been higher. So here's an idea that Governor Romney and I actually 
agreed on last year: let's tie the minimum wage to the cost of living, so that it finally becomes a wage you can live on."

However, barackobama.com advertised for "unpaid" interns. The bolding is mine:

477) Falsely said that he had never lived with his drunk driving, illegal alien uncle

In 2011, the Obama administration said that Obama had never lived with his drunk driving, illegal alien uncle. However, in December 
2013, it was reported that Obama actually had lived with him.

478) In New York City, thousands of Obama voting, well educated, upper class professionals complained about losing their insurance 
because of Obamacare

In December 2013, the New York Times reported:

With Affordable Care Act, Canceled Policies for New York Professionals

Many in New York's professional and cultural elite have long supported President Obama's health care plan. But now, to their 
surprise, thousands of writers, opera singers, music teachers, photographers, doctors, lawyers and others are learning that their 
health insurance plans are being canceled and they may have to pay more to get comparable coverage, if they can find it.

"I couldn't sleep because of it," said Barbara Meinwald, a solo practitioner lawyer in Manhattan.

Ms. Meinwald, 61, has been paying $10,000 a year for her insurance through the New York City Bar. A broker told her that a new 
temporary plan with fewer doctors would cost $5,000 more, after factoring in the cost of her medications.

Roy Lyons, managing director of Marsh U.S. Consumer, an insurance brokerage, said he had heard complaints from physicians, lawyers, 
pharmacists and optometrists.

Among those affected are members of the Authors Guild; the Advertising Photographers of America; the Suzuki Association of the 
Americas, a music teachers organization; the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators; the New York City Bar 
Association; and the New York County Medical Society.

It is not lost on many of the professionals that they are exactly the sort of people - liberal, concerned with social justice - who 
supported the Obama health plan in the first place. Ms. Meinwald, the lawyer, said she was a lifelong Democrat who still supported 
better health care for all, but had she known what was in store for her, she would have voted for Mitt Romney.

It is an uncomfortable position for many members of the creative classes to be in.

"We are the Obama people," said Camille Sweeney, a New York writer and member of the Authors Guild. Her insurance is being 
canceled, and she is dismayed that neither her pediatrician nor her general practitioner appears to be on the exchange plans. What 
to do has become a hot topic on Facebook and at dinner parties frequented by her fellow writers and artists.

"I'm for it," she said. "But what is the reality of it?"

479) Washington state's Obamacare website stole money from people's checking accounts

In December 2013, KGW reported that the Obamacare website for Washington state had stolen money from people's checking accounts.

480) Illegally ordered insurance companies to cover "customers" who had never paid any premiums

In December 2013, Obama ordered insurance companies to cover "customers" who had never paid any premiums. Obama's action was 
illegal because it violated the takings clause of the Fifth Amendment. It was also illegal because he did not have approval from 
Congress.

481) Millennials who voted for Obama and supported the passage of Obamacare did not want to purchase Obamacare insurance for 
themselves

In December 2013, it was reported that most of the Millennials who had voted for Obama and had supported the passage of Obamacare 
did not want to purchase Obamacare insurance for themselves.

482) Obamcare website violated federal security laws

In December 2013, it was reported that the Obamacare website was in violation of federal security laws.

483) Refused to answer questions about how many of Obamacare's so-called "enrollees" had actually paid their first month's premium

On December 11, 2013, more than two months after the Obamacare website had gone online, the Obama administration still refused to 
answer questions about how many of Obamacare's so-called "enrollees" had actually paid their first month's premium. Instead, the 
Obama administration was still fraudulently counting as "enrollees" people who had put Obamacare policies into their shopping cart 
without actually paying for them. No legitimate online retailer counts unpaid items left in the shopping cart as sales.

484) Illegally delayed Obamacare's online SHOP enrollment by one year

In November 2013, it was reported that Obama had delayed Obamacare's online SHOP enrollment by one year. Because Obama did this 
without approval from Congress, his action was illegal.

485) Ten different Obamacare "customer service" representatives refused to let cancer survivor Lynn Baklor sign up for Obamacare

Lynn Baklor lives in Maryland, and is a survivor of breast cancer. Over a period of two months, she spoke on the phone with ten 
different "customer service" representatives from Obamacare, and none of them allowed her to sign up for Obamacare. The Obamacare 
website was not working either. A WBAL news report on her situation can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F79acewkZ78

486) Obama's nominee to head the defense department said he did not know much about the military

In January 2013, Chuck Hagel, Obama's nominee to head the defense department, said he did not know much about the military.

487) Federal judge said Obama's bulk collection of phone records was unconstitutional

In December 2013, U.S. District Court Judge Richard Leon said that Obama's bulk collection of phone records violated the fourth 
amendment's prohibition against unreasonable searches. It was Edward Snowden, a former NSA employee, who had first revealed to the 
public that Obama had been engaging in this unconstitutional activity.

488) Gave out even more illegal Obamacare waivers

On December 19, 2013, Obama gave exemptions from the Obamacare mandate to people whose insurance had been canceled due to 
Obamacare. Because Obama gave out these exemptions without approval from Congress, his action was illegal.

489) Obamacare creates a new 2% tax on every insurance plan

Obamacare creates a new 2% tax on every insurance plan. This breaks Obama's promise that he would not raise taxes on families 
making less than $250,000 per year.

490) Obamacare requires some people to pay 19% of their income for premiums

In December 2013, the New York Times reported:

A 60-year-old living in Polk County, in northwestern Wisconsin, and earning $50,000 a year, for example, would have to spend more 
than 19 percent of his income, or $9,801 annually, to buy one of the cheapest plans available there.

491) Six Democratic Senators who voted for Obamacare complained that it was causing voters in their districts to lose insurance

In December 2013, six Democratic Senators who had voted for Obamacare wrote a letter to Health and Human Services Secretary 
Kathleen Sebelius, complaining that Obamacare was causing voters in their districts to lose insurance.

492) Admitted that the so-called "Affordable" Care Act was actually "unaffordable" for some people

In December 2013, the Obama administration admitted that the so-called "Affordable" Care Act was actually "unaffordable" for some 
people.

493) 53% of people without insurance disapprove of Obamacare

In December 2013, the New York Times reported:

Americans who lack medical coverage disapprove of President Obama's health care law at roughly the same rate as the insured, even 
though most say they struggle to pay for basic care, according to the latest New York Times/CBS News poll.

Fifty-three percent of the uninsured disapprove of the law, the poll found, compared with 51 percent of those who have health 
coverage. A third of the uninsured say the law will help them personally, but about the same number think it will hurt them, with 
cost a leading concern.

494) Under certain circumstances, Obamacare recipients between the ages of 55 and 64 can have their homes seized by the government 
after they die

Under certain circumstances, when someone between the ages of 55 and 64 participates in Obamacare, then after they die, the 
government can seize their home, preventing their children from inheriting it.

495) PolitiFact repeatedly changed its rating of Obama's promise that people could keep their insurance, based on how many 
Presidential elections he still had left

PolitiFact is a left wing organization that rates the truthfulness of statements made by politicians. Regarding Obama's promise 
that people could keep their insurance, PolitiFact has given out three different ratings.

In October 2008, when Obama still had two Presidential elections coming up, PolitiFact rated his statement as "true."

In June 2012, when Obama only had one more Presidential election coming up, PolitiFact rated his statement as  "half true."

In December 2013, when Obama could no longer run for President ever again, PolitiFact rated his statement as "lie of the year."

In all three of these cases, PolitiFact was rating the exact same statement. So why did they keep changing their rating? The best 
explanation that I can think of is that as Obama had fewer and fewer Presidential elections coming up, they were willing to be more 
and more accurate in their ratings. So only when he was no longer able to run for President again, were they finally willing to 
admit the truth about his statement.

496) Obamacare supporters at Democratic Underground later complained about it

For some really hilarious displays of shock and outrage by supporters of Obamacare at how it's harming people, check out these 
threads at Democratic Underground: one, two, three, four,  five,  six, and seven.

497) Commander-in-Chief Obama adopted lower military standards so unqualified women could serve in combat

In December 2013, NPR reported:

Starting Jan. 1, every woman in the Marines Corps was supposed to meet a new physical standard by performing three pullups. But 
that has been put off.

The three pullups is already the minimum required for all male Marines. Now the Marine Corps has postponed the plan, and that's 
raising questions about whether women have the physical strength to handle ground combat, which they'll be allowed to do beginning 
in 2016.

Why does this matter?

Well, the same NPR article continued:

The Marine Corps has been using it to test upper body strength for men for more than 40 years. And that upper body strength, they 
say, is necessary to serve in ground combat: to pull yourself out of a canal in Afghanistan, to climb over a mud wall, to carry an 
ammunition box.

And a CNS News article on the subject stated:

Pull-ups have been used to test Marines' upper body strength for over 40 years. The ability to pull-up one's own body weight over a 
bar shows the upper body strength that, in combat, is needed to lift fallen comrades, pull one's self over a wall, and carry heavy 
munitions. Combat Marines also carry a pack that weighs around 90 pounds, with gunners carrying an additional 50 or 60 pounds.

In other words, this qualification is by no means trivial. On the contrary, this involves skills that are necessary in combat - 
necessary for saving the soldier's own life, as well as for saving the lives of other soldiers.

Obama, who is Commander-in-Chief of the military, is saying that he's perfectly OK with allowing unqualified women to go into 
combat, even if it means that their lack of qualifications could end up killing them, as well as killing other U.S. soldiers who 
depend on them.

498) Had double standard for hate crime laws

When someone participated in the so-called "knockout game," the Obama administration filed hate crime charges when a white person 
attacked a black person, but not when a black person attacked a white person.

499) Tried to prevent federal judge from ruling on NSA surveillance

In December 2013, the Obama administration tried to prevent a federal judge from ruling on NSA surveillance efforts.

500) Illegally tried to avoid disclosure of a foreign aid directive that he had signed

In December 2013, a federal judge ruled that Obama's attempt to avoid disclosure of a foreign aid directive that he had signed in 
2010 was illegal.
