Grey Lady Notices Dem Health Plans Could Harm Americans

Back when Operation Iraqi Freedom was a big deal to the media such as the New York Times, especially the body counts and reports of a boot trooper doing something he shouldn’t have done, one used to be able to find stories of good news in the Saturday edition. I had a theory that none […]

Guess Who Is Getting Your Swine Flu Shot

It’s bad enough that there is already a massive backup on the Swine Flu vaccine, but….. Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius told CNSNews.com Wednesday that one in 10 doses of the swine-flu vaccine purchased by the U.S. will be donated to other nations before U.S. demand is filled. Sebelius also told a Senate committee […]

For 39%, Government Option Support Depends On Details

I guess they will not support it, since there really are no details While the majority of Americans appear to have made up their minds on healthcare reform, 39% say their support for a final healthcare bill will depend on how the details still being worked out in Congress are resolved. The finding comes from […]

Obama Will Vote Present Till Given Healthcare Legislation

Remember how Obama said he would come out with his own health care plan, prior to his campaign stop in front of Congress a few months ago? Say, where did it go? The White House will not commit to health care legislation that would cap insurance premiums or tax benefits, taking a wait-and-see approach as […]

Obama’s Capable Of Threats And Trashing Constitution At Same Time

I guess Mr. Constitutional professor was all out of bubble gum President Obama mounted a frontal assault on the insurance industry on Saturday, accusing it of airing “deceptive and dishonest ads” to derail his health care legislation and threatening to strip the industry of its longstanding exemption from federal anti-trust laws. In unusually harsh terms, […]

Hey, Cool, Obama And The Dems Finally Have A Health Care Opponent

I’m guessing the Washington Post forgot all about the Republican electa-critters who decried government run health care and offered up all sorts of plans, not too mention the TEA Parties, and all those folks who were questioning their electa-critters at Townhalls, who knew more about the legislation than the electa-critters. Moving on Now they have […]

White House Fights Back On AHIP Study, With Typical Venom

During the Bush years, one of my biggest complaints, and certainly a complaint of most supporters, was that he and his administration just wouldn’t fight for his policies. But, then, you never heard the Bush administration consistently insulting, demeaning, demonizing, assaulting, abusing, and denigrating private citizens and entities that oppose, criticize, and/or take exception to […]

ObamaCare And The “New Mommy Tax”

Yeah, yeah, I know I really shouldn’t call it ObamaCare, since, like virtually every other policy, Obama gives a speech then votes “present!” In this case, he has outsourced all the health system destruction legislation out to Congress. We’re still waiting for Obama’s actual plan, which he said weeks ago he would supply. Anyhow, Amanda […]

A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Demonizing Private Insurance Companies

Over the past few months, we have heard and read about Democrat leaders doing their typical “hey, let’s insult, demean, damage, and demonize yet another private entity” in regards to the health insurance industry. They tell us that the private health insurance companies should be more like the selfless government run Medicare. Yeah, about that […]

Resolution Denouncing Alan Grayson (D) Coming?

Catching up on the Alan Grayson affair from yesterday, in which I figured that there would be no condemnation resolution submitted by the GOP, well………. House Republicans changed course on Wednesday and decided not to move forward with a resolution condemning Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Florida, for saying that the GOP health care plan calls for sick […]
