Rick Santorum explains ObamaCare’s importance to the GOP’s strategy in the general election and why Romney can’t effectively make the case for repeal. Santorum pointed out that RomneyCare provided the blueprint for Obama’s plan and addeed:
Folks, we can’t give this issue away in this election. It is about fundamental freedom.
Giving the GOP presidential nomination to Romney will indeed amount to […]

DEBATE VIDEO: SANTORUM HAMMERS ROMNEY ON MASSACHUSETTS MANDATE
ROMNEY ADVISOR SAYS NOT TO EXPECT FULL REPEAL OF OBAMACARE
Yep. You read that right. Norm Coleman, an important advisor to Mitt Romney, said the following on a talking heads gasfest a couple of days ago:
You will not repeal the act in its entirety, but you will see major changes, particularly if there is a Republican president … You can’t whole-cloth throw it out. But […]
VIDEO: THE JUSTICE WHO KNEW TOO MUCH
Last July, I wrote a column for the American Spectator about Elena Kagan’s conflict of interest where ObamaCare is concerned. Since then, more damning information has come out about her involvement in preparing the legal defense of PPACA. In this video, Michael Ostrolenk interviews Carrie Severino, Policy Director of the Judicial Crisis Network, about their new report: […]
ABOUT THOSE “FRIVOLOUS” OCARE LAWSUITS
Remember when the lawsuits filed against ObamaCare were just “frivolous” PR stunts? I guess SCOTUS disagrees. In today’s American Spectator, I discuss yesterday’s Supreme Court decision to hear arguments on four specific issues raised by the various plaintiffs:
Does Congress possess the power to enact the individual mandate?
Is the individual mandate severable from the rest of the law?
Does the Anti-Injunction Act […]
THE DUMBEST QUESTION FROM A MODERATOR IN LAST NIGHT’S GOP DEBATE
As a rule, I don’t watch debates moderated by MSM hacks. The questions are always rehashed DNC talking points, and they are often just plain dumb. A classic example was provided during last night’s GOP debate by Maria Bartiromo:
You have all said that you will repeal President Obama’s health care legislation. Down the line, 30 […]
WOLF: SAVE AMERICA BY REPEALING ACA
In his latest column for the Washington Times, Milton Wolf points out that any workable plan to restore fiscal sanity to the country must include the repeal of ObamaCare (or, to use the Orwellian title preferred by its few remaining supporters, the “Affordable Care Act”):
Politicians are a curious breed. Their age-old solution to the problems created by their bad […]
THE SUPREME ARBITER OF YOUR LIBERTY
My latest column for the American Spectator discusses the outsized role one man will play in deciding the fate of ObamaCare and your personal liberties:
Now that the Department of Justice has petitioned the Supreme Court to review Florida v. HHS … most experts believe the justices will take up the case this term and issue […]
MARK LEVIN: SUPREME COURT COULD UPHOLD OBAMACARE
Levin is a lawyer whose experience includes an advisory role in the Reagan adminstration. He knows what he’s talking about and says we should not be overconfident that the Supreme Court will do the right thing on ObamaCare. He’s particularly worried about Justice Anthony Kennedy:
Four justices will definitely vote to uphold the mandate (Kagan, Ginsburg, Breyer, Sotomayor) […]
THE OPTIMIST’S GUIDE TO REPEAL & REPLACE
In a comment on the preceding post about Herman Cain, “Milla” asks (in reference to single-payer health care), “Do you have a better solution?”
As a matter of fact, I do. Or, rather, Congressman Paul Ryan does. Here he is explaining it in speech to the Hoover Institution at Stanford University:
Because Ryan is a serious man making […]
OBAMACARE IS GOING DOWN
Peter Ferrara has great piece at the American Spectator explaining why he believes the U.S. Supreme Court will pull the plug on ObamaCare. He concludes the following from the recent ruling by the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals that the individual mandate is unconstitutional:
The bottom line takeaway from this decision is that if this is how Judges Hull, Dubina, Hudson, […]
