Obama planning turning Medicare over to private

By law, the Pentagon must notify Congress 30 days before a prisoner transfer, a deadline that Obama made on Monday. In June, Obama made sure to release Abdel Malik Ahmed Abdel Wahab al-Rahabi, the bodyguard, 9/11 planner, and possible relative of Osama bin Laden, from Guantanamo Bay. In September, Obama's administration informed the American people that two more Islamic terrorists released from Guantanamo Bay returned to the battlefield to fight against the United States. That news ...

Here we go again. Sorry, but doesn't he realize we're broke yet? WASHINGTON (AP) — Millions of seniors in popular private insurance plans offered through Medicare will be getting a reprieve from some of the most controversial cuts in President Barack Obama's health care law. In a policy shift critics see as political, the Health and Human Services department has decided to award quality bonuses to hundreds of Medicare Advantage plans rated merely average. The $6.7 ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) — Ninety-one people including doctors, nurses and other medical professionals were charged criminally after an investigation of Medicare fraud that involved $430 million in false billing in seven cities, officials said on Thursday. It was the government’s second big raid in recent months after a similar investigation in May involving $452 million in possible fraud in Medicare, the health program for the elderly and disabled. The accusations include billing the go ...

This is a National Journal (a moderate Washington insider publication) article on the "sausage-making" side of this issue, the maneuvering--not the socioeconomics of it. The people who read this journal also read many others, and it's not the last word on anything, but I thought the "what's going on here?" is interesting as part of an ongoing series of maneuvers. It's worth noting that an eligility age increase could be put right back on the table just as quickly. Also, the "chai ...

"modest" 35 million dollar home in Hawaii in January of 2013. (I hope he can take up PERMANENT 24/7 residence on that date). He always calls Hawaii "home" when he is vacationing on our dime, guess he doesn't want to call Chicago home - too many shootings within just blocks of his house there. Who would want to vacay there anyway? I'm glad they are buying something modest though, all the while demonizing Romney for having too much money - at least Romney ear ...

Watching a program this morning and a person asked about taking a gift to a wedding. These were people not really close and she was asking how would it be if she took an unsigned check, went to the wedding, checked it out INCLUDING what was being served at the reception and then slip into the ladies room and wrote out what she thought the wedding, I guess, was worth to her. Now, talking about tacky. This right now is high in my book. The hostess taking the question told her no. What involving we ...

Just a question as I am interesting in hearing the positives on both sides. Without saying negatives about the side you don't support. Can you give me a reason(s) why I should vote for Obama or why I should vote for Romney. I don't want to hear negativity about the other candidate, already read enough. And if possible don't try and make up things like Romney will try and convert everyone to Mormon or Obama will save the planet and covert everyone to muslim. ...

While I find it highly unfortunate that Texas has cut funding for family planning, it is a good opportunity to learn what the effects will be in the future. This article was pretty interesting, by the New England Journal of Medicine. http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp1207920?query=featured_home&&& "In addition, as more women are steered toward contraceptive pills, they are being provided with fewer pill packs per visit, a practice that has been shown to result in lowe ...

there are cars coming at you from the left and they finally clear but then there are cars coming from the right turning into the parking lot and you can't move until THEY clear but once they do, there are now cars coming from the left again and on and on. This happened to me last night and the jerk behind me actually started honking at me. What the heck was I suppose to do? Drive into traffic so he/she could get home sooner? It's just frustrating and it's ...

Does the below paragraph mean that any "former" American who becomes a citizen of another country will STILL have to pay taxes to the U.S. government? How does that work????? Are they saying this to scare her or is the government now going to start taxing every former American who renounced their citizenship? BTW, in reading another article on the same subject, the top tax rate in Switzerland is 22.4%. "But if the 73-year-old singer is making the move to cut her tax bills, she ...

It is not about the popular vote, it is delegates. Santorum won my precinct, but Ron Paul got all the delegates. The GOP cannot do anything about it because they are all stealth. It is all completely legal and something put in place to get around vote fraud/manipulation, mob rule, advantage by the wealthy, etc. They are gaming the GOP with their owned gamed system. :) http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/03/01/ron-paul-s-delegate-strategy.html ...

This friends family has always treated my husband like one of their own, so it is sort of like an uncle finding a gift for his nephew. It has been 30 years since we had a 2 year old so we are feeling challenged about what to get. This is family #2 for the dad and mom who are ages 51 and 49 and both have children out of college. He is an only child of two avid shopaholics, so needless to say he has been indulged and spoiled since day one. What do you get for the ...

Because of the crappy economy, I'm trying to budget my money better and I've decided to try to give this a try. I work second shift and I've gotten into the habit of cooking dinner maybe three times a week and doing take out the rest of the week and I want to get out of that habit. And I also want to take time to sit down with my kids and eat supper. Take my dinner break and enjoy it. But I am the least organized person! So before I dive into this, I ...

Hundreds of Al Qaeda militants are planning terror attacks from Yemen, the country's foreign minister said Tuesday. Abu Bakr al-Qirbi appealed for more help from the international community to help train and equip counter-terrorist forces. His plea came after an Al Qaeda group based in Yemen claimed responsibility for the failed Christmas Day airliner bomb plot. Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, alleged to be behind the attempt to blow up an American-bound aircraft, spent time in Yemen with A ...

I've ordered the cake. Back when I was having my babies, baby showers consisted of cake, nuts, mints, and punch. And a couple of games and then of course present time for the mom to be. Someone had suggested crackers and cheese and spreads, and veggies and dip. Finger foods. Is that all necessary? Will I make a gigantic faux paux if I just serve cake? We having in the church with close family and friends and I just want it to be nice and casual. I& ...

"Using taxpayer dollars to finance family-planning services has become politically thorny in Texas, largely because of Republican lawmakers’ assertions that the women’s health clinics providing that care are affiliated with abortion providers. In the fiscal crunch of 2011, the Legislature cut the state’s family-planning budget by two-thirds, with some lawmakers claiming that they were defunding the “abortion industry.” Researchers at the University of Texas at ...

that provided information, advice, referrals or services for legal abortion or supported the legalization of abortion, even using its own money. Merely talking about abortion could cost groups not only federal money, but also useful technical support and American-donated supplies of contraceptives, including condoms for distribution in the communities they serve. The gag rule did nothing to prevent use of government financing for abortions because that was already illegal under federal l ...

Copenhagen is preparing for the climate change summit that will produce as much carbon dioxide as a town the size of Middlesbrough.
