Open letter to Senator Shaheen
In 2010, Mike Ensi (R) U.S. Senator from Wyoming warned the Senate of the upcoming Obamacare debacle; stating that millions would have their existing health care coverage cancelled, and that both premiums and deductibles would rise.
You and all the Democratic elitists scoffed, mocked and ridiculed him. When he proposed an amendment to the so-called “Affordable” Care Act (ACA) to allow those with existing health care insurance to keep their policies and providers, you and the rest of your ilk unanimously voted against it! The Whitehouse website still sounds out that “If you like your healthcare coverage, you can keep it”, without caveat. What say you Senator?

Now we are to believe that you have had a slight change of heart about the ACA roll out and recommend an extension on the individual mandate. This is a faux mea culpa based solely on your angst about the upcoming election cycle.
Were you not aware that for the uninsured to become insured, those who were insured would have to lose their healthcare coverage, and be forced into the ACA as the means to pay for the uninsured? This is at the root of the Obamacare infrastructure.

You did read the bill before you voted for it – didn’t you? Your endorsement of the ACA makes you culpable in advocating the greatest Ponzi scheme in American history; one which will surely decimate the middle class. Recent estimates from health care experts are that upwards of 68% of all Americans will have their health insurance policies cancelled by the end of next year - that’s 129+ million people! NH policy cancellations are now at 22,000! What say you to that Senator?
You are obviously a good White House foot soldier, and follow the ideological dictates of your party’s leadership to the hilt; a perpetual rubber stamp of all socialist proclivities. I know that understanding how capitalism and free market forces work is not a politicians’ strong suit, especially Health Care which will impact a sixth of our economy. I get that, however any supposed change of heart on your part requires a commensurate soul searching: I would suggest the following actions:
1. A sincere public apology to Sen. Ensi for discounting his pinpoint accurate predictions
2. Work towards restoring existing health care policies for those (now at 4.8 million and growing daily) who received cancellation notices
Finally, why don't you come home Jeanne. Why don't you to return to the private sector and share in the wonderful blessings on Obamacare that you have bestowed upon us by unilateral legislation; without exception, exemption or subsidy. Yes, come home Jeanne. We miss you.
