Heck of a job, Barry!
Nearly 16,000 Iowans who tried to apply for coverage via the trouble-plagued federal health-insurance website are being told to apply separately through the state Department of Human Services.
The Friday afternoon announcement is the latest bout of bad news about the website, which is a key part of the Affordable Care Act.
The announcement affects people who entered their information into healthcare.gov and received a notice that they might qualify for Medicaid. The federal computer system was supposed to transfer their applications to a state computer system, but that transfer has been complicated by technical problems. The timing is critical, because the new insurance coverage is supposed to take effect on New Year’s Day, which is Wednesday.
State officials say they can’t guarantee that people in this situation will have coverage if they need to see a doctor before the mess is untangled.
See what happens when you shred the First Amendment? No more Freedom of Religion, no more Freedom of Association, and when it’s the government screwing you over, there is no Freedom to Petition for Redress.
“When the Government forgets the First Amendment, it is time for the People to remember the Second.”
And…

DHS insider gives final warning
See, I totally believe this. Call me crazy, call me kooky, but I think all them talking about the next elections are blind people thrashing around in a ditch.
Things are going to get unbelievably ugly one day soon. We can do our best to be ready, but the truth is we really won’t/can’t be.
‘Bout all there’s left to say is, Jesus saves.
happy new year 2

what the hell is nau.hexagram.com?
Because it sure as hell doesn’t want me reading the Canada Free Press.
And personally, I can’t decide who’s the bigger crank, Doug Hagmann or the Ulstermann sonofabitch.
In for a penny in for a pound eh Pinch?
nau stands for native ad unit…that’s all I can say.
Okay, why is provolone cheese so boring ON a burger but so good when IN a stuffed burger? I don’t get it.
it’s about texture and you can still sprinkle some bleu on top and be way ahead of the game
but it’s not a game it’s just a burger
understand?
it’s just a burger
“the bigger crank, Doug Hagmann or the Ulstermann sonofabitch”
I dunno, I just have a hard time getting the billion rounds of ammo HLS bought out of my head.
New contender ‘Oregon man’ presumes to challenge current champion ‘Florida man’ for crown of depraved and senseless infamy in the headlines.

I dunno.
So that’s why we haven’t heard from “steve.”
I’m mildly disappointed that the editor went with:
‘Ore-man-on-meth-fights-off-12-cops-while-masturbating-in-bar’
instead of
‘Ore-man-on-meth-manages to beat-off-12-cops-while-masturbating-in-bar’ .
I’m sure the writer tried that, but the editor gave him THAT LOOK and killed it while the writer slunk off with a sheepish grin…
Beaverton. Just not what it’s cracked up to be.
– Shouldn’t that be: “On the one hand Oregon man-on-meth manages to beat off 12 cops while on the other hand masterbating in bar.”?
Duh!1 & his idiocracy continues apace….

steve got some more serious lib’splainin’ to do.
http://washingtonexaminer.com/massachusetts-the-model-for-obamacare-has-highest-health-costs-in-the-united-states/article/2541270
” As Modern Healthcare reports:
Massachusetts, whose health care reform program was used as a template for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, had the highest per capita health spending in the U.S. in 2009. According to the commission’s report, the state spent $9,278 per person on health care in 2009, which was 36 percent higher than the national average of $6,815, and 11.2 percent more than the next-highest state, New York, which spent $8,341.”
This may go a ways explaining Dog Vomit…
I don’t think I can take steve lib-splaining anything. One can only split those hair so fine, after all.
The feds practice with HP (Sorry, I don’t have a link, but I remember reading that). Since they don’t actually pay for their practice ammo, they can afford to. Unlike the rest of us.
My guess? They’re not stockpiling, they’re hoarding in order to price the ordinary consumer out of the market.
Which is why the rest of us are hoarding as well,
and 15 cent/round fmj .223 is selling for 75 cents now.
Guns & Ammo.
Feds are just some extra pressure, 400 million rounds per year, which comes to 2800 rounds per year per armed DHS person which includes the Coast Guard too. Is this a lot? I don’t know. It depends on what they do for training and how many trainees they’ve been told to expect.
Main reasons are, more people being armed thanks to CCW and the 2008-2012 elections. Got everyone on edge expecting ???? shit to happen and then Sandy Hook and the Dems call for every gun control measure in their playbook and the passage of some in certain States makes the edginess worse. So yeah, the
FedsDems are screwing with the prices by making threats.I buy that.
If for no other reason because screwing is what Dems do.
Camille Paglia reaches a truth beyond that known by anyone holding political office in the U.S. or U.K. What happens to institutions in those countries that have lost their masculinity are catastrophic.
One of her best quotes is, “If it was left for women to create civilization we would still be living in grass huts.” In truth, with women in charge, even those grass huts would have long ago collapsed in a heap of cinders.
For proof reach no further than “The Tinder Box: How Politically Correct Ideology Destroyed the U.S. Forest Service. The entire book supports the case presented by Ms. Paglia. The most powerful arguments are presented in Chapters 6, 7, 16 and 17 (check out the Amazon Reviews). The psychological and physical differences between men and women are not only multiple, they are manifest rather than marginal. For feminist readers who have read Ms. Paglia’s column, analyzing “The Tinder Box” will require a bottle of blood pressure medication by the sofa side.

It’s now official, so Dog Vomit will have a lot of explanations to offer (assuming he is both capable and willing to recognize reality, that is)…

Of course, since most liberals can’t do simple math, he might not be.
Steven B. Thievin’s many personalities include Pauline Kael, which means that what you say, Drumwaster, cannot be true — because Steven B. Thievin managed to sign up for insurance (though not through an exchange, and he hasn’t actually bought the policy, and…).
