Obama's Masterplan

D'UH of the Day: Health Overhaul Will Increase Nation's Tab

The report's most sober assessments concerned Medicare.

In addition to flagging the cuts to hospitals, nursing homes and other providers as potentially unsustainable, it projected that reductions in payments to private

Medicare Advantage plans would trigger an exodus from the popular program. Enrollment would plummet by about 50 percent, as the plans reduce extra benefits that they currently offer. Seniors leaving the private plans would still have health insurance under traditional Medicare, but many might face higher out-of-pocket costs.

In another flashing yellow light, the report warned that a new voluntary long-term care insurance program created under the law faces "a very serious risk" of insolvency.

Hey Hey senior citizens! That thump in the head is for you! Please direct your thanks and praise to the WH. Operators are waiting for your call.


Idiotic D'UH of the Day: When The "Trust" Hormone Is Out Of Balance

Helmets on, mah babies, this is a for reals story...

Blahblahblah oxytocin blahblahblah the trust hormone blahblahblah "Trust in government is at an all-time low, and there certainly are kinda macro reasons for that," says Zak. "But could there be biological reasons? That was the question in this study: To what degree does the biology of trust, which we associate with oxytocin, affect trust in government and trust in government officials?"

Oh NPR, if you are gonna run stories like this, me thinks you owe us a tote bag to carry off the resulting stinky pile o'poo. Gave me a laugh though. Here's a tip for ya: folks not trusting the government is a result of the government's actions. It's their, say it with me, consequence.

Now stop pushin' and start paying attention.


Gotta Ask Yourself WHY? Of The Day: Will Dems "Go For It" on Immigration Reform?

The question comes after reports top Democrats believe they have a "moral imperative" to pursue an immigration deal and are setting aside energy and environmental legislation (which had major problems of its own) to do it.

Hmmm, could that "moral imperative" translate to move voters for dems, as they offer the teat of our government to the poorest of the poor?!

Listen, so many of us who aren't fans of Barry have been yammering about it's not that he doesn't get why Americans are so fed-up with the government and his policies, it's that he doesn't care. Barry and Crew have an agenda, and it's not yours. They're not stupid, they understand they only have three more years to implement it. Time is of the essence to get new voters through any means possible. Their very existence as a party depends on their so called "moral imperative".

As for the Democrats, the aide asks: "Having voted for a health care bill that's toxic, having voted for the biggest deficits ever, will they then turn around and vote for an amnesty bill? I just don't think they will do it."

So why are Obama, Pelosi and Reid going forward? There are five possible explanations.

1) They've lost their minds.

2) They are very smart and know something we don't.

3) They're out of touch with the public's concerns.

4) They want to be able to tell the most ardent supporters of reform that they tried.

5) They're fully aware that the public doesn't want "comprehensive" reform but are racing to do as much as they can before the elections take away their power to defy the public's wishes.

The first possibility is highly unlikely. The second is less so, but still pretty unlikely. The third is plausible, but not probable. The fourth is arguable. And the fifth? It makes a lot of sense, especially in light of the Obamacare experience.

Not long ago, in another context, the president challenged Republicans to "Go for it." Don't be surprised if the GOP tells him the same thing this time.



There are your choices. Many cling to #3 to explain away such inexplicable behavior, but if that were true, Barry and Crew would need to also be deaf, dumb and blind. And they ain't. Their plan is to save their party. In order to do that they need an influx of voters who see things the administration's way and are filled with gratitude over what Barry has done for them. Illegals think he's on their side, but in reality he is preying on the poorest of the poor and hoping to buy their vote to further his wants. They will vote for the dude who gave them "free" healthcare on your dime. Count on it, the dems are.



Badass of the Day: Rush Limbaugh

In the face of a country we are starting not to recognize, there is hope. There is always hope. Where can we find a voice of reason, of truth (well, i meant other than here...)?

Bring us home, Rush.

Let me just say it. The Obama/Clinton/media left are comfortable with the unrest in our society today. It allows them to blame and demonize their opponents (doctors, insurance companies, Wall Street, talk radio, Fox News) in order to portray their regime as the great healer of all our ills, thus expanding their power and control over our society.

A clear majority of the American people want no part of this. They instinctively know that the Obama way is not how things get done in this country. They are motivated by love. Not hate, not sedition. They love their country and want to save it from those who do not.
