Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) today falsely attacked Sen. David Vitter (R-La.) while defending his decision to exempt his staff from Obamacare. “We hope that Senator Vitter enjoys the government-sponsored health care contribution he reportedly continues to receive even as he launches these pointless political attacks,” said Reid’s spokesman. “In fact, I enrolled in a health insurance plan on the Louisiana exchange and receive no subsidy of any kind for it,” Vitter responded. Vitter spoke on the Senate floor today calling on Reid to explain his decision to exempt some of his staff from Obamacare. Vitter invited Reid to the floor, but Reid did not show up.
