On the march to single payer United Parcel Service Inc. plans to remove thousands of spouses from its medical plan because they are eligible for coverage elsewhere. The Atlanta-based logistics company points to the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, as a big reason for the decision, reports Kaiser Health News. The decision comes as many analysts are downplaying the Affordable Care Act’s effect on companies such as UPS, noting that

“Obama Misses HALF Of Obamacare’s Implementation Deadlines”
But hey, it’s the law of the land and the GOP can’t do anything about it. Other than continue to fund raise against it, then — once back in power — promise to manage it better than the Democrats. Oh. And they can also exempt themselves from it’s reach. But then, pointing that out is just petty. Because, like, brain drain. And probably racism, somehow. Warner Todd Houston: Many of
Not content to sit on your asses and let the progressives run your lives?
Well, we aren’t either. Only, we here is Weld County, CO — and several other counties that are joining us or are preparing to join us — are actually trying to do something about it. Aside from the civil disobedience with which we’re already making our displeasure known, which includes a refusal by our district reps and state senators to follow the anti-gun laws passed by New York Mayor Michael
Freud, call your office: NYPD/Bloomberg points hundreds of guns at audience [Darleen Click]
What? What’s the worry? While we hope that the NYPD had the good sense to clear each and every firearm on display, what they failed to do is as undeniable as it is unforgivable. They clearly left magazines in, with bolts closed, on numerous firearms pointing at the press corpse. I mean, press corps. At least one of the guns picture above, third up from the bottom on the left,
“School Has Become Too Hostile to Boys” [Darleen Click]
Who knew? Across the country, schools are policing and punishing the distinctive, assertive sociability of boys. Many much-loved games have vanished from school playgrounds. At some schools, tug of war has been replaced with “tug of peace.” Since the 1990s, elimination games like dodgeball, red rover and tag have been under a cloud — too damaging to self-esteem and too violent, say certain experts. Young boys, with few exceptions, love
“N.J. Gov. Christie signs ban on gay conversion therapy”
Or, as my wife put it, Ann Coulter’s superconservative superstar essentially signed a ban on dubious parenting, depending on one’s perspective — in a further blow against religious liberty, and keeping the government out of the personal affairs of families. If the family won’t act, politicians will. For the children! Because nobody knows your child better than a legislator in a state government. And if the government wasn’t more than
“How to serve a warrant: 1972 versus today, by Lt. Harry Thomas”
The line it is drawn The curse it is cast The slow one now Will later be fast As the present now Will later be past The order is Rapidly fadin’ And the first one now Will later be last for the times they are a-changin.
A broader overview of Levin’s Liberty Amendments project
FOXNews’ Sean Hannity hosted an hour-long special on Mark Levin’s Liberty Amendments project, spelled out in his new best-seller The Liberty Amendment: Restoring the American Republic, in which Levin explained his project and was then queried by a host of conservatives (many, of course, regular FOX contributors, and all pre-disposed to find at least some agreement with Levin’s ideas). Among those in the studio audience were David Limbaugh, Terry Jeffrey
WaPo Quest columnist Brenda Howard on how tough it is to be a Trayvon Martin supporter among moral inferiors [Darleen Click]
Weep for Brenda as she quits her job over the desktop hoodie on her company computer. I needed to do something. The Monday after the trial ended, I went to my job at a small doctor’s office and made my computer desktop wallpaper (which was not viewable to the public) an image of a hoodie. This image had sprung up on the Internet and social media as an expression of
Obama already legislates from the White House [Darleen Click]
So why shouldn’t he just rewrite the Constitution, too? President Obama on Saturday offered one of his strongest defenses to date of his signature domestic achievement, lambasting Republican critics of his health care law as obstructionists who are playing politics with the well-being and economic security of millions of Americans. In blunt terms, Mr. Obama used his weekly address to describe health insurance as a “right” and distinguished states that
