Well, it's time to make good on some of the deals that he made to sway voters:

I like this part:
"Signing of order was closed to the news media"

You dont want to make the public aware that you are having to actually follow through with the back scratching..... :roll:

Whoops! ObamaCare doesn’t cover pre-existing conditions for children

<SMALL></SMALL>

Nancy Pelosi said we had to pass the health care reform bill in order to find out what’s in it. So what was the first thing they discovered when they started reading it? The benefit that Obama said for weeks and months would begin almost immediately, that kids with pre-existing conditions could no longer be denied by insurance companies, was left out of the legislation. Oopsy-daisy:

Under the new law, insurance companies still would be able to refuse new coverage to children because of a pre-existing medical problem, said Karen Lightfoot, spokeswoman for the House Energy and Commerce Committee, one of the main congressional panels that wrote the bill Obama signed into law Tuesday.

However, if a child is accepted for coverage, or is already covered, the insurer cannot exclude payment for treating a particular illness, as sometimes happens now. For example, if a child has asthma, the insurance company cannot write a policy that excludes that condition from coverage. The new safeguard will be in place later this year.

Full protection for children would not come until 2014, said Kate Cyrul, a spokeswoman for the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, another panel that authored the legislation. That’s the same year when insurance companies could no longer deny coverage to any person on account of health problems.

Obama’s public statements have conveyed the impression that the new protections for kids were more sweeping and straightforward.
​

How could this have happened? Incompetence, pure and simple. And when you have a government that embodies the combination of incompetence and a hunger for power, the outcome will be nothing short of disaster for the American people. As the details of this leviathan of a bill come out, we’ll see and experience how damaging it will be.

A 2700 page bill that nobody read before they voted on it. And the fact that it does not effect the people who voted it in.
If it would have been voted down, there would have been a new law passed making the president Supreme Dictator and he would have passed it with a wave of his wand.
Or is that next week?
