official this week, the president of the united states yesterday declaring i m going to make it easier on businesses. i m going to further delay the implementation of the employer mandate for those businesses with 50 between 50 and 99 employees. right. it s a second change to the employer mandate and delay there. 27th change to the law overall that the president has gotten in there on. andrew mccarthy, former federal prosecutor said he can t just do this. it s not his money. it s not his money, by the way. in theory, if you wanted this law to work properly and whether it s a good idea or bad idea, the people who are implementing it should want it to work properly, that money is the public s. it doesn t belong to the president. he doesn t get to say, you know, i don t think i ll collect this three years worth. that belongs to us. it doesn t belong to him. and it is law, again, that he has no constitutional qualms
once again just done by the white house, no need for the congress to weigh in. and this is the 27th change to the law since it was passed. judge napolitano takes on those questions, also a top democratic senator says he is raising credibility questions. here is dick durbin claiming 10 million people have health insurance because of obamacare. 10 million americans have health insurance today who would not have had it without the affordable care act. that is not true, senator durbin, the washington post fact check er giving that four pinocchios, there are no five, there are just four, he got all of them, the paper calling that claim, quote, simply ridiculous. but today senator durbin s
he initially granted an exemption to big business directly contrary to the law but he wanted to take care of his buddies in big business. granted an exemption to members of congress, directly contrary to the law but he wanted to take care of harry reid and the senate democrats. this latest announcement, he s yet again changing the law, violating the law, it s unconstitutional and it is unprecedented. let me ask you this, senator. it s my understanding this nugget of information within the latest change is that small businesses would have to sign a statement under threat of perjury if they re actually going to increase or decrease their employee level that would put them into a different level of the mandate. i mean, is that the government telling private business who they can hire and who they can fire? the burdens obama care are putting on small businesses are enormous. small businesses generate two-thirds of all new jobs and gretchen, every time i go back
about 3 million private insurance sign-ups, now trending closer to the projections, it s a flawed law, i think people feel uncertain about it but an indication people really are desperate for changes in our health care system. i don t know about that. another change, i think this is the 27th change that administration did now with regard to small businesses that we talked about at the start of the show, and i m just wondering, if this social media campaign they ve had like pajama boy and mom jeans that we just showed and that block of cheese summit, it seems like nothing is catching on for them. it s because it s a bad law. there is an article in the l.a. times a few weeks ago that was very insightful. a young woman quoted and said, i was for obama care until i realized i had to pay for it. and as people learn about the details of this health care, the more and more it s going to become unpopular. even to the point that now that nancy pelosi knows what s in the law, she goes on t
state department, none of the terrorists have been brought to justice, and this ought to be a bipartisan priority. gretchen, when i travel home to texas, i talk all the time to men and women of the military, men and women who serve in the diplomatic corps, and they re outraged and offended that their federal government, 17 months ago today, is when those attacks began, and we still haven t seen the terrorists brought to justice. all right. i want to move on now because you are a lawyer, sometimes people might forget that, and the former solicitor general of texas, so senator, i would like to ask you about the legality of the latest change to obama care announcing yet another delay for the employer mandate. how do you see this one? well, it s yet another example of lawlessness from this president. you know, we ve never seen a president who takes the view if he disagrees with a federal law he can ignore it, refuse to enforce it or just unilaterally change it. and obama care has been
