No, they're not illegal. They simply preclude the plans from "qualifying" under the ACA and therefore they not only are very likely to completely fail to provide you with adequate coverage to remain financially solvent should you suffer any health crisis more serious than the common cold, they also will no longer protect you from the individal mandate fine/fee/tax/bqhatevwr. In other words, there's now even less point in having one.

Since I'm apparently in the Eddie Izzard quoting mood this week, I'll go for another:

<blockquote>But the royals are just obsessed with, "Are you a royal family? Are you a royal member? Well, then you can marry me ‘cause you're same gene pool, and our IQs will go down the toilet.” Fantastic!</blockquote>

Apparently the Palin bloodline has been Royal for generations, because her IQ's not just down the toilet, it's in the processing plant already.

President Palin would have pushed the woman down and then made fun of her.

...frankly I'm surprised Barack "the Imapaler" didn't just perform an abortion right there in the middle of the press conference!

With how much these folks are sure everything is staged, I wonder if everything they do is staged...

"Whether accurate or not..." pretty much sums up Duh Gov'.

Meanwhile, after looking at that photo I prefer the original cast of Modern Family.
