David Vitter, Republican Senator from Louisiana, introduced a bill to force Washington into the Obamacare exchanges with the rest of us. This was included in one of the Continuing Resolutions passed by the Republican House. The Democrats in the Senate voted against this. They would rather see the government shut down than to give up their special Washington exemptions. They make $200,000 per year and say they can't afford Obamacare. How do they think someone who makes 30 or 40 thousand dollars can afford it if they can't?
