Obamacare cost-saving, and Gruber: it’s lies all the way down
Let’s not forget good old Obamacare. The administration hasn’t, and the lies keep coming: On Dec. 3, federal actuaries released data showing that health spending inched up only 3.6 percent in 2013. Marilyn Tavenner, the head of Medicare and Medicaid, … Continue reading →
Gruber certainly got around, didn’t he?
So many Gruber videos surfacing, so much Obamacare deception. So little MSM coverage. However, if Romney ever decides to run in 2016 (which I do not think he will, nor do I think he should), you better believe Gruber’s admission … Continue reading →

Obamacare: to know it is to hate it
As time goes by, the public dislikes Obamacare more and more. The trend isn’t just with one group, it’s across the board. Democrats, Independents, and Republicans not only continue to dislike the law but increasingly dislike it. It’s true among … Continue reading →
What is the opposite of “legal immigrants”?
“Undocumented” ones. The transformation of our language from meaningful to propaganda on the issue of new arrivals to this country is pretty much complete. One would think the opposite of “legal immigrant” would be “illegal immigrant.” But “undocumented immigrant” seems … Continue reading →
