But before you get OUTRAGED, slow your roll. Because the truth is, once health care became a “right,” forcing doctors to perform procedures against their will and at a price set by those who created the right was always the clear end game. Yglesias is just brave enough to say so — just as he’s brave enough to tell you, like Obama has, not to listen to those who disagree
Matt Yglesias, progressive social engineers, set to determine what kind of profit greedy doctors can make
“Colo. man signs up for his insurance, his dog gets covered instead”
And that’s not even the worst part. Turns out that, at 14-years-old, the Yorkie, Baxter, was then denied a claim for arthritis meds and instead granted coverage for “alternative care, which consisted of ziplock bag filled with hemlock-laced Beggin’ Strips. For the Greater Good. Rest in peace, Baxter. The State salutes you for your unselfishness and sacrifice.
Harry Reid, Democrats vote to give themselves more power
Nuclear option passes. The left’s end game is nearly complete: use law and procedure to fundamentally transform law and procedure — that is, use the intentional bastardization of our institutions and laws to deconstruct them — thus fundamentally transforming the United States, and with it, fundamentally transforming the role of the citizen and sovereign to one of subject ruled over by sovereigns. The only question left is this: do we
Nordstrom — A class act … [Darleen Click]
Refreshing If you’re in the habit of shopping for the holidays early and want to get a head start this year on Thanksgiving Day, don’t bother stopping at Nordstrom. It’ll be closed. The leading fashion retailer announced its doors will close Thursday, Nov. 28. Affecting more than 100 stores in 35 states, the closure is part of a Nordstrom full-line and Nordstrom Rack tradition. “This is how we’ve approached the
On the heels of a chest cold
…a rather nasty stomach virus has made its way through our house, beginning with Satch, who picked it up at school, then making its way into Tanner, then my wife, and finally — though I resisted mightily — into me, where it now lives like that demon who once gave Linda Blair a frighteningly ambitious rogering with a crucifix. Were I not so miserable — and so frequently indisposed —
President Asterisk … [Darleen Click]
It wasn’t just the IRS neutralizing the TEA Party-minded voters prior to the 2012 elections … In the home stretch of the 2012 presidential campaign, from August to September, the unemployment rate fell sharply — raising eyebrows from Wall Street to Washington. The decline — from 8.1 percent in August to 7.8 percent in September — might not have been all it seemed. The numbers, according to a reliable source,
Please, someone do an intervention on HuffPo’s Matthew Lynch [Darleen Click]
If this isn’t parody, Lynch is in serious need of a 5150. A lot has happened since then. I am loyal to the Democratic Party and to my president, but I am not blind, deaf or dumb. I recognize that Obama has made more than one controversial decision and rocked the boat a time or two during his presidency. Sure, he has committed his share of blunders and tripped over
Sunday Football Open Thread [Darleen Click]
It may be tough going in the Midwest due to weather, but I’m a happy camper today after USC Trojans became relevant again last night.
Newspeak: hijacking the language for political ends [Darleen Click]
Regardless of whether one considers “transgender” as just another point on human identity spectrum, or a psychological condition best dealt with by mental therapy, the politics of this fundamentally dishonest ad is blatant: No one is denying the “gender non-conforming” basic care. I know of no cases where a person has broken a leg, is diabetic and needs insulin, suffers from asthma or needs a flu shot and is refused
A sampling of compassionate misspokennessity
Sure, some of this was “not as clear as it could have been.” So what? Remember, the ends justify the means, because the ends are reached on a rose petal-covered road of compassion and caring. But stop your fretting: if you lose your coverage, that’s a good thing. Because then Obama will make sure you get better coverage, cheaper. Through subsidies. Taken from taxes, or from fake money issued through
