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:
NFL Gangster Style
John Facenda was known as The Voice of God. He was famous for his over-the-top NFL Film productions glorifying the manly ideal of the players. Now pro athletes glorify themselves as gangsters and rappers. At least that’s how Jason Whitlock sees it at Fox Sports. He says, “… popular culture has installed Tony Soprano as America’s most celebrated and revered icon above Joe Montana”.
The Wall Street Journal says that on a psychological profile Aaron Hernandez scored a perfect 10 on focus and a 1 on social maturity.
Tale of Two Dicks
During an interview with Charlie Rose that aired Monday the president protested again that he’s not Dick Cheney. He has a point. I haven’t heard that Cheney tried to intimidate journalists and their sources, or use the IRS to intimidate political opponents.
James Taranto, in a column titled We’re all Dick Cheney Now, says Obama is trying to send a message to his base that they were right to distrust Cheney but not to distrust him for adopting and expanding the same program of spying on Americans.
Victor Davis Hanson says, “deception is now institutionalized in the Obama administration”. He calls it, “the most untruthful cast since Nixon, Halderman, Zeigler, and John Dean”.
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.
