Obama’s Empty Promises

By PMA

As if Obama hasn’t already broken countless campaign promises that he made to countless people to pander to them and gain their votes, his decision to shut C-SPAN out of the health care bill negotiations (save for one possible hour of “show coverage”) is the mother of all broken promises. The only thing transparent about... »

Nelson Faces A Backlash

By PMA

In the wake of Senator Ben Nelson’s (D-NE) widely discussed vote, new polls are showing him losing the next election by a margin of 61-30!  That’s the great news; I really hope that every idiot who voted for this bill gets canned in their next election. The bad news, though, is that the next election... »

Ho Ho Ho, Harry Reid

By PMA

Sherman Frederick of the Las Vegas Review-Journal wrote a short but hilariously cynical piece in response to Harry Reid’s statement that it’s a senator’s job to get his state something in return for his vote on the heath care package. He wrote: I’m very disappointed. It’s Christmas morning and I can’t find one single gift to Nevada... »

Idiot Votes No

By PMA

This from Politico: In what has to be one of the only humorous moments in this whole health care bill fiasco, Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) actually voted NO on the bill before realizing his mistake and voting yes, prompting a laugh in the chamber, especially from Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY). (I guess we can’t... »

Howard Dean Would Vote ‘No’

By PMA

Why bother fighting the Democrats when they’re so busy fighting amongst themselves already? Even with a filibuster-proof majority in Congress, they still can’t get the votes to pass their party-line version of the bill. So, they have their president threaten non-conforming Senators, like Obama reportedly did with Ben Nelson (D-NE), threatening to shut down an air... »

The Ol’ Democrat Bait-And-Switch

By PMA

The Democrats have been notorious for pulling bait-and-switch schemes in Congress this year. They introduce a bill for voting, then somewhere down the road, they introduce an amendment which rewrites entire sections of the bill, and try to have the amendment “considered read”, so that the vote is actually done on an amendment the... »

1,990 Pages of Crap

By PMA

“(a) Outpatient Hospitals – (1) In General – Section 1833(t)(3)(C)(iv) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395(t)(3)(C)(iv)) is amended – (A) in the first sentence – (i) by inserting “(which is subject to the productivity adjustment described in subclause (II) of such section)” after “1886(b)(3)(B)(iii); and (ii) by inserting “(but not below 0)”... »

Obama’s Poor Grasp Of The English Language

By PMA

The Wall Street Journal today has a great piece summing up Obama’s uneventful weekend on the Sunday talk show circuit, in which the most newsworthy piece of news is that he apparently has no idea what the word “tax” means. While that is something of a relief (one can only imagine the variety of... »

Obama: No Healthcare For Illegals… So, Let’s Legalize Them First!

By PMA

I am actually surprised at the fact that I still get shocked by the degree of Obama’s brazen doublespeak! You’d think we’d all be used to it by now! The master of lies, deception and hypocrisy! It’s incredible how he can get away with having the gall to make a statement with such force and... »

Obama’s Habitual Disinformation

By PMA

Obama is taking lies and disinformation to a whole new level, a new art form. He twists stories so much that they are barely recognizable from the original true stories, and his enraptured audiences just swallow it all, even repeating those stories and anecdotes to others as gospel. Scott Harrington wrote a piece in the... »

Fines For No Health Insurance?

By PMA

The Associated Press recently reported that: Just as auto coverage is now mandatory in nearly all states, Baucus would require that all Americans get health insurance once the system is overhauled. Penalties for failing to do so would start at $750 a year for individuals and $1,500 for families. Households making more than... »

Canadian Health Care Testimonial

By PMA

Here is a great testimonial offered by a brain tumor patient who had to come to the United States for his disagnosis and treatment, rather than wait the necessary 8 months in Canada, during which he could have died had his tumor been more serious (something which they couldn’t even know in Canada because... »

COVER-UP? Obama: “We are God’s partners in matters of life and death”

By PMA

There is something very fishy going on. Obama had a call with several rabbis yesterday, during which he said, “We are God’s partners in matters of life and death”—at least according to some of the rabbis involved, one of whom (Rabbi Jack Moline) has posted that exact quote on his Twitter feed, among other quotes... »

More of Obama’s Contradictions

By PMA

The Wall Street Journal published a great editorial highlighting some of Obama’s glaring contradictions on health care over the past three weeks. He apparently can’t even get his talking points straight, as he often says one thing at one venue and another thing at another. This is a classic example of what I’ve posted about... »

Public Option Debate: Red Herring?

By PMA

Richard H. Thaler, professor of economics and behavioral science at the Booth School of Business at the University of Chicago, wrote a piece in the Sunday Times about health care’s “public option” and how this is a red herring, distracting from the issue of real reform. While everyone is arguing about whether or not the... »
