President and Members of Congress Who Voted for Obamacare Should Face Impeachment or Recall: Their Ill-Conceived Actions in NOT READING THE BILL Before Voting “YES” Have Brought Serious Harm to Four Million Americans With Tens of Millions More Scheduled to Join Them Next Year

President Obama and every member of Congress who voted “yes” on the Affordable Care Act should face impeachment or recall proceedings for their serious lapse of judgment when they chose not to READ THE BILL before voting “YES” on it. 

It’s done nothing but bring serious financial harm to roughly four million Americans, with tens of millions more at risk of having their health insurance plans cancelled in 2014.

President Obama obviously didn’t read the bill either since he signed it into law and uttered statements like “If you like your plan, you can keep it.”   All that’s missing is the MISSION ACCOMPLISHED banner.

Everything that has happened so far was spelled out in great detail in the text of the Affordable Care Act.   If members were complaining that they didn’t have time to read it themselves, they should have read it right in the chamber, like they read the Constitution in the House of Representatives, and REQUIRED members of Congress to be there to listen to it be read.

Having some insurance is better than having no insurance at all.   Obamacare has stripped millions of their health insurance coverage, and the rollout of their replacement insurance has been an unmitigated disaster.  And millions more face having their insurance cancelled as spelled out in the Affordable Care Act next year.  Those who have been able to sign up aren’t sure if they’re covered or not.

Voting ‘yes’ on a bill without reading it should be considered a high crime and should be considered an impeachable offense.  It’s the height of irresponsible Congressional and Presidential conduct that must be stopped. 

No more voting on bills that they haven’t read!  If they don’t care to read the bills before voting on them, I have a solution: RESIGN!
