Paul Hsieh has, in his latest contribution to Pajamas Media, found the perfect metaphor for the creepy reaction of the Democrats to the downgrade caused by their irresponsible policies: Suppose you saw your doctor for a persistent headache. After performing a full battery of tests, he told you that your MRI scan showed a malignant brain tumor. Would you [...]
Remember when Nancy Pelosi said ObamaCare would create 400,000 new jobs almost immediately? Well, apparently Boston Scientific didn’t get the memo: Boston Scientific Corp. said yesterday that it plans to eliminate 1,200 to 1,400 jobs worldwide during the next 2 1/2 years to free money for new investments, the Natick medical device maker’s second major [...]
This time, the problem is ObamaCare’s “firewall,â€? a feature that denies subsidies to workers whose employers offer affordable coverage. In other words, if your company offers a plan with premiums that total less than 9.5 percent of your income, you’re SOL on subsidies: The problem is a huge headache for the Obama administration and congressional [...]
When his lips are moving, of course. As Milton Wolf points out in his latest Washington Times column, Obama’s shameless whopper about his own mother’s tragic cancer death is by no means the first time a prominent Democrat has told a brazen lie to the voters. Wolf begins by reminding us of this stretcher from Senator John [...]
The ObamaCare waivers that have caused so much controversy, not to mention violating the Constitution, will end next September: Removing a potential political distraction ahead of next year’s elections, the Obama administration Friday announced an early end to a health care waiver program that has come under fire from congressional Republicans. But it has nothing [...]
We all know that AARP supported ObamaCare because of the Democrat plan to herd millions of seniors off their popular Medicare Advantage plans back to traditional Medicare—-which will require the purchase of Medigap plans from which AARP derives 70% of its income. Well, that wasn’t the only payoff the AARP got for betraying its members. [...]
It could hardly be more obvious that the President and his Democrat accomplices have dropped a twenty megaton bomb on Medicare. ObamaCare strips $500 billion from the program and effectively kills its most popular iteration—Medicare Advantage. Why? Milton Wolf provides the answer in his latest Washington Times column: The president’s intentions are chillingly clear: ‘I [...]
The Dems have spent a good deal of time trashing Paul Ryan and his plan to save Medicare, but have offered no sensible counter-proposal. In this clip, DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is asked for a reasonable alternative and can’t produce anything but the same tired “Mediscare” whoppers she and her accomplices have been peddling all along:
Simon Rosenberg, President of liberal think-tank NDN, gets his ass kicked so badly in this segment that he tears his mike off and leaves the stage. Ironically, the moderator had actually interrupted THE CONSERVATIVE so that Rosenberg could finish reciting his talking points, but the schmuck was so uncomfortable outside the progressive cocoon that he just [...]
The tragedy of the NY-26 election results is not that a Dem won, but that she won using the old “Mediscare” tactic. Even Bill Clinton understands that the current Medicare funding model is simply unsustainable. In this clip, he worries aloud that the NY victory will encourage the Dems to continue their irresponsible failure to face that fact: I’m [...]
