In today’s American Spectator, I discuss the new cuts to Medicare Advantage proposed by the Obama administration. No, I’m not talking about the $200 billion Obamacare cuts that have been so controversial. These are brand new cuts that CMS unveiled a couple of weeks ago: If President Obama’s rhetoric on domestic policy can be said [...]
In this morning’s American Spectator, I advocate deep-sixing one of the dumbest ideas ever. This morning you were required to get out of bed an hour earlier than you rose last Monday. If you are like most people, you did so in the same spirit of resignation with which you endure winter rain, believing that [...]
These tweets from Democrat consultant and Obamacare supporter will be an excellent source of Schadenfreude: Everyone in the galaxy understands that Obamacare is already driving health insurance premiums through the roof. Apparently, however, Ms. Brazile didn’t get the memo. Many more Obamacare supporters will also be waking up and smelling the coffee. The knuckleheads [...]
The “news” media are still covering for our dear leader: NBC, ABC, and CBS have ignored a story that would damage the liberal narrative they are helping the White House to push. Two days ago, the Congressional Budget Office reported that it has revised its projections of the cost of ObamaCare’s insurance subsidies. Er … [...]
That State of the Union speech was so dishonest that picking out the biggest whopper was no easy task. But your intrepid blogger took it on anyway in the American Spectator. It is difficult to say with certainly which of the many whoppers President Obama told tonight took the most crust to utter, but my [...]
During the 2008 election, poll after poll showed that Americans wanted two main things from health care reform: lower costs and easier access to care. And, during that election, candidate Barack Obama repeatedly promised that his “reform” plan would cut costs to the tune of $2,500 per family. During his first run for president, Barack [...]
On Thursday, the Supreme Court will hand down its ruling on the constitutionality of the ironically titled “Affordable Care Act.” If you’re a young adult, you’d better hope they strike it down. ObamaCare actually raises the cost of your health care if you’re under 30. Watch this video and then go outside and scrape that [...]
Barack Obama promised, during the 2008 presidential campaign, ”We will bring down premiums by $2,500 for the typical family.” Many of us said at the time that this was almost certainly BS. Well, now we know for sure: [ht Milton Wolf]
Well color me shocked. Who would have thunk it? The estimates given to us prior to passge of this phony “reform” monstrosity turn out to be pure, unadulterated horse manure: President Obama’s national health care law will cost $1.76 trillion over a decade, according to a new projection released today by the Congressional Budget Office, rather [...]
A couple of weeks ago, in the American Spectator, I gigged Newt Gingrich for parroting a tired progressive talking point: In 2009, he wrote another Washington Post column in which he echoed a refrain often heard from people who believe we should ration care to the elderly: ‘More than 20 percent of all Medicare spending occurs in [...]
