Uh oh, looks like some Lib chickens are coming home to roost.

Via Investor’s Business Daily: Professors Suddenly Don’t Like ObamaCare Either

After years of singing the praises of universal health care, college professors are now shocked at how badly it has turned out — for them.

Adjunct professors are steamed at the way their employers are interpreting the Affordable Care Act’s employer mandate, which forces them to cover full-time but not part-time workers. Typical of liberals, they blame their employers instead of the job-killing law they supported.

Starting Jan. 1, ObamaCare makes employers offer all full-time workers health insurance or pay a fine. In response, hundreds of colleges have simply cut instructors’ course loads to dodge coverage. Others are thinking about laying off untenured faculty by the thousands….

The American Association of University Professors says it’s “dismayed” by the ObamaCare-tied cutbacks, calling them “reprehensible.” A Stark State College adjunct professor facing cuts at his Ohio institution whines that it should cover part-time workers, too. “It goes against the spirit of the law,” says the English prof….

What’s that, Lib college professors?

Obamacare is not fair?

Here, maybe this audio soundbite will help.

    I’m sensing PhD theses on, Bush took my healthcare away.

    But to cheer you college profs. up, July 30 is National Cheesecake Day and The Cheesecake Factory is offering 1/2 price cheesecake all day. AND TCF is introducing its newest cheesecake on July 30, Toasted Marshmallow S’mores Galore made with Hershey’s chocolate. Looks scrumptious! http://www.thecheesecakefactory.com/mailmedia/email122.htm

    As a college professor I say GOOD! There are consequences for voting for liberals, and it is time for the professoriate to learn that they are subject to the same cold, hard economic forces as everyone else. Sadly, the professoriate hasn’t even begun to feel the pain: the tuition bubble will soon burst and the days of a life-long, high-paying job without substantial teaching responsibilities (the actual productive activity at universities) is coming to an end.

    Wow, these College ‘Professors’ are very S-L-O-W Learners, as most Liberals tend to be.

    Bwa ha ha. Maybe they should be assigned to do research papers on universal health care in Britain, Canada and Cuba, for a start. And also spend time in the corner for messing up our health care.

    Hey liberals, welcome to the real world. The monster you created cometh for you too.

    Typical life experience and reaction from a Lib with a liberal arts degree. which rarely includes a course in economics.
