I couldn't make this *bubblegum* up if I tried. This is almost as bad as the DHS ordering shooting targets of civilians (e.g. Mother with a baby).
What else will get "enforcement discretion" in the future? This is starting to sound like the book Animal Farm.

'Fairy Tale' Continues as Obama Proposes Extralegal Obamacare Fix | The Weekly Standard
Now President Obama is taking Clinton's advice and trying to honor that commitment. In remarks today at the White House today, Obama said, "I completely get how upsetting this can be" lose insurance plans that I promised Americans would be able to keep. "To those Americans, I hear you loud and clear."
But there's a catch with president's proposed solution. The president is not proposing that the law be changed to allow all health insurance plans grandfathered into Obamacare's eligibility requirements.
No, instead the White House is saying that it will use "enforcement discretion" to allow illegal health insurance plans to be able to still be sold. That is, the Obama administration will not enforce the penalty on individuals for not having eligible health insurance plans and they'll allow the insurance companies to still sell so-called bad plans -- plans they technically can't sell under Obamacare.
