Why ObamaCare Isn’t Working
Democrats are blaming Republicans for standing by and watching, rather than climbing aboard the ObamaCare train wreck.
Happy 4th of July
The text in the first panel is from the Declaration of Independence which is read aloud every 4th of July at the National Archives. This year Hillsdale College is promoting readings all over the country.
That’s a good thing because a multitude of new offices have been erected under HHS to enforce Obamacare. Not only that, swarms of IRS agents are coming to harass our people and eat out the their substance under the Orwellian named “Affordable Care Act”.
The young and healthy, who helped sweep Obama into office, are being forced to buy insurance they don’t need in order to bring down costs for the old and sick. Here’s an actual notice from an insurance broker to a young person I know:
Co-Conspirator
Eric Holder signed off on a warrant calling Fox News reporter James Rosen a co-conspirator even though he doesn’t think he is one and has no intention of prosecuting him. In an interview with NBC’s Pete Williams Holder bemoaned the fact that, despite his “great respect for the press”, it’s necessary to brand a reporter, “doing his very important job”, as a criminal in order to get a warrant against him. So, why did he want a warrant against such a swell guy?
Holder also says he has no intention of stepping down.
Off the Record
President Obama has proclaimed himself a fierce defender of the First Amendment . On cue, Eric Holderman called for a meeting of news honchos to clear the air about his secretive and nasty behavior toward them. True to form, the meeting was off the record.
Strange behavior for a couple of guys who only know what they read.
Update: Here’s a great Nat Hentoff piece on two Obamas. (He mentions the efforts of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press to lead the pushback for the first amendment. Nat’s a RCFP steering committee member and so am I.)
