Harry Reid's ObamaCare Double Standard

It takes a lot of crust to engage in hypocrisy this blatant. Remember Harry Reid's Christmas Eve vote on a health care bill few had seen and none had read? Remember his legislative chicanery, used to jam ObamaCare (unpopular even then!) down the throats of the American people?

Well, get this: Now he's exempted some of his staff from living under the law he worked so hard to pass. They can continue with the cushy government plan that taxpayers would love to be able to have -- and afford.

In the meantime, the administration is quietly issuing rules on an ObamaCare tax that will disproportionately injure small business and inhibit job creation. But Reid staffers, basking in the perks that come disproportionately to the government class, don't need to worry about any of that. They have a job where the boss can inflict rules on the rest of us, but exempt his own workers. How convenient.
