Another exemption for Congress?

The latest attempt by our legislators to avoid laws that apply to we commoners seeks to exempt them and their staff from being subject to some aspects of Obamacare.  They are worried that, because of the insurance exchange aspect of the law, the federal government will no longer pay 75% of their health insurance premium.  If that is the case, their staff will have to seek other jobs and they might have to pay for a good part of their health insurance.  The chance of this happening are virtually nil, but the Congress can get excited over vague possibilities but not over the real problems we have.
