We serve the american people. but that has changed over the years and to the extent that we have a essentially a ruling class. you have members of congress, bureaucracy, and it is almost like we have a different culture in washington and different rules than the rest of the american people live by. and that is unacceptable. so our amendment would basically prevent members of congress from passing laws and then exempting themselves or their friends from its operation. and i think that has the app...

On their way out of town for the august recess congress was able to work with the administration to get this fix they needed for congressional staffers in limbo? >> yeah. >> people feel like, oh, thanks a lot, you fixed it for congressional staffers on the way out the door, and the rest of us are stuck. >> youre right, shannon. i cant tell you how many people were hearing from saying this is an outrage. you mean theyre exempting themselves, members of congress and their staff from the obamacare ...
