Health Reform: So much for the "affordable" part of the Affordable Care Act. Looks like ObamaCare premiums will rocket next year while sky-high deductibles make it too costly for many to see the doctor. Last Monday, IBD's Jed Graham broke the news that big insurers in six states "are seeking to raise rates an average 18.6% next year." BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee — which currently accounts for 70% of the ObamaCare enrollees in that state — is looking to increase premiums a whoppi ...

Earlier this summer a State Department spokesperson told CNN that Hillary Clinton hadn’t broken and rules or policies with her use of email while Secretary of State, a revelation which was almost inexplicably ignored by most other news outlets. Than an FBI spokesperson told the New York Times that Clinton was not a target in their email investigation, which was focused on hackers; rather she was being viewed as the potential victim. Again, the major news of a second federal agency giving Clint ...

did she lie about her grandparents immigrating here from other countries, which was a lie, now it has been revealed that she once told Sir Edmund Hillary when she met him that her mother named her after him because he was such a hero climbing Mt Everest and all. Come to find out, he climbed MT. E 6 years after she was born. So then when she was confronted about this lie, she said, (paraphrasing) that her mother must have made it up because she admired Sir E H so much that she probabl ...

Since Truman, no incumbent has been reelected with a poll number below 49% at this point in the election cycle. I am omitting Bush 2, who had 48% but whose reelection ultimately had to be decided by the courts so I think you have to simply toss this election out when looking at voter trends. As a general rule, undecideds almost always break away from the incumbent, and they will surely do so in the current environment - both globally, domestically and economically - in all of which areas ...

First, about Clapper's comment, which (paraphrased) is this: "The idea that we're trolling through everyone's stuff is absurd - there's too much of it. We couldn't do it if we wanted to." This is a falsehood wrapped in an oxymoron, disguising an outrage. The oxymoron: "We're gathering millions of bits of information, and that means there's too much information to look at." The falsehood: Anyone who has actually been involved in creati ...

Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution specifies that it is the Congress that has the power to declare war. United States Code (50 U.S.C. 1541-1548), the War Powers Act, specifically states that the president may undertake the use of military force only in the case of "... a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces." It further states that the President must consult with Congress, "...in every possible instance ...

after the reps get back from their 11-day Thanksgiving holiday break and right before their target adjounment date for their 28-day Christmas/Hanukkhah/New Year's holiday which commences tentatively on December 8. After they reconvene Jan 5, Occupy plans a return visit to Congress around March 31 to kick off American Spring. Bill "OWS-is-dead" O'Reilly must have missed the memo. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/pl ...

Aren't they supposed to be working for us not against us? Why does each side think it's okay to take the American people hostage as long as it furthers thier agenda? It's not just the tax cuts that will expire, but it also puts into motion the defense cuts that were never supposed to happen, which could put more than 1 million people out of work. I think every single one of them should forfeit thier paycheck until they come up with a plan that helps everyone, not ...

I'm listening to the health care repeal debate. Weiner, as usual, was a little hyperactive during his debate point. The speakers I found most interesting were the doctors that have been elected to Congress. All of them are against the law the way it stands. It just came across the bottom of the screen that if the health care repeal passes, REID will NOT schedule it on the Senate side. That's like saying to heck with what the people want, (I don't want ...

President Obama intends to bypass Congress and appoint Dr. Donald Berwick to head Medicare and Medicaid, the White House announced Tuesday -- filling the job while Congress is in recess to get around Republican opposition that threatened to derail Berwick's confirmation. In two decades as a professor of health policy and as a prolific writer, Dr. Berwick has championed the interests of patients and consumers. At the same time, he has spoken of the need to RATION health care and cap spendin ...

There are lies that just will not die and the chance a lie will not die increases exponentially if it is a leftist talking point. My gosh, we’re still hearing that Planned Parenthood gives mammograms and that no WMD were found in Iraq. Now that Trump has launched a strike on Syria in retaliation for its use of chemical agents on a civilian target, the Obama fellatistas are out en masse claiming that Obama, too, could have done that if only a dastardly and racist Congress had not forbidden him ...

watching the Senate intelligence committee hearings Thursday morning, I got so frustrated I started looking for a good cartoon show. What's so aggravating about these staged Congressional hearings is that you know what the Republicans and the Democrats are going to say before you even turn on the TV. If it's healthcare reform, the right side says it's going to replace Obamacare with something that works - but then they can't sell their conservative ideas to the public a ...
