without a right-wing bias, how could anyone not report that the story was donnie flip-flopping and now pushing one of the main features of obamacare?

or that his executive order doesn't appear to accomplish anything obamacare didn't already accomplish?

it's the media that's responsible for its content and its editorial decisions, which have been heavily biased in favor of the right-wing for decades now.

Lock him up.
