Government in the middle of Valentine’s Day now? Why not? Obama tried to hijack people’s wedding and birthday presents.
The ACA propaganda machine needs a rebuild. Browbeating didn’t make the grade, ecstatic reviews by pop celebrities pooped out and now even cutesy-wootsy doesn’t cut it.
They tried “brosurance”, “hosurance”, “mom wants you covered”, “pajamaboy”, “crazy cat lady” … what’s next? “Ve have vays of making you like it”?
They could try telling the truth for a change, except the truth is even more grim than the lie.
Easter is not far off. I can see it now. “Want to have a ‘Good’ Friday? Get covered!”

Four HUNDRED MILLION dollars PER YEAR is allocated to fund unannounced home visits by government agents.
Families “eligible” for such visits were originally defined as:
Families where mom is not yet 21.
Families where someone is a tobacco user.
Families where children have low student achievement, developmental delays, or disabilities.
Families with individuals who are serving or formerly served in the armed forces, including such families that have members of the armed forces who have had multiple deployments outside the United States.
They have since been expanded to cover pretty much whoever some government wants to eliminate. E.g., Christians, homeschoolers, you name it.

Obamacare’s “Forced Homes Inspections”, PolitiFact Got it Wrong [10:05]
Reagan had it right. “The most terrifying words in the English language are: I’m from the government and I’m here to help.”
P.S., I saw something just like this happening in my community nearly 30 years ago. A chiropractor’s toddler was diagnosed with cancer; his parents researched and decided to go with a natural treatment plan rather than chemo. His oncologist AGREED, saying the outcomes for each were about 50-50. The local government authorities intervened, TOOK the child forcibly from the home and would not return him until the parents agreed to shove chemo drugs down his throat. True story. I knew this family. I saw this happen.

Obamacare Provision: “Forced” Home Inspections by Joshua Cook – August 14, 2013
February 10, 2014: King Barack the Brown stroked with His Majestic Pen and created another Congress-Free Delay in His Wondrous Settled Law of Obama Cares.
Tweet: If President Obama likes his health care law, why won’t he keep it?
Tweet: I love that part of the Constitution that says that all controversial legislation should, in perpetuity, be timed around elections.
Tweet: When you think about it, Obama is just liberating the executive branch from the tyranny of Constitution-lock.
Tweet: I remember when wanting to delay O’care meant you were a racist anarchist. Now it means you’re the president. That’s progress, I guess.
Just print out and fill in the seven-page form and snail it to Kentucky where it will be promptly scanned and transferred to the ObamaCare computer system!
But … oops. For now, that is where the process stops. The part of the computer system that would allow agency workers to READ and FIX the problems has not been BUILT.
So after you fill out and snail the form and wait and wait and wait, you can try calling the HELP line and IF you can get a live person, you will be “invited” to return to HealthCare.gov, reset their account to nothing and START ALL OVER.
Of course, if the system screws up your new application, your first appeal will be no good any more, because you reset your account and started over.
You’re going to start seeing this in photoshops and cartoons and on t-shirts and bumper stickers soon, so I thought I’d let you know ahead of time where it originated.
Excerpt from Senator Mike Lee’s SOTU response – January 28, 2014
Real inequality is trapping poor children in failing schools to benefit bureaucrats and union bosses. It’s penalizing low-income parents for getting married, or getting better jobs.
It’s guaranteeing insurance companies taxpayer bailouts if Obamacare cuts into their profits.
Inequality is blocking thousands of middle-class jobs in the energy industry as a favor to partisan donors and radical environmental activists.
Inequality is denying viable, unborn children any protection under the law, while exempting unsanitary, late-term abortion clinics from basic safety standards.
It’s denying citizens their right to define marriage in their states as traditionally or as broadly as their diverse values dictate.
It’s the federal government hurting rural communities, especially in the west, by controlling and mismanaging public lands.
It’s changing laws without congressional approval, and spying on American citizens without constitutional authority.
And of course, Obamacare – all by itself – is an inequality Godzilla that has robbed working families of their insurance, their doctors, their wages and their jobs. Many Americans are now seeing why some of us fought so hard to stop this train-wreck over the last four years.
Government-driven inequality is the reason why, as hard-working families across the country struggle to make ends meet, six of the ten wealthiest counties in America are now suburbs of Washington, D.C.
Throughout the last five years, President Obama has promised an economy for the middle class; but all he’s delivered is an economy for the middle-men.
And tonight his party cheered as he asked for more of the same, as if the solution to inequality were … well … more inequality.
Can you imagine the liberal head explosions if Bush’s Department of Education had tried to instruct Hollywood on the “proper” way to portray No Child Left Behind?
IN OCTOBER, we all saw the disastrous roll-out of the Obamacare website. IN NOVEMBER, we learned that Tony Trenkle (Chief Information Officer for Healthcare.gov) told his boss Marilyn Tavenner and her boss Kathleen Sebelius that the website could NOT be secured without another year of work. He recommended they delay the launch.
Tavenner and Sebelius buried Trenkle’s warning and launched the insecure site anyway, KNOWING it would put millions of Americans’ most personal information at risk.
LAST WEEK, hacking expert David Kennedy testified before Congress last week that he had no trouble penetrating the site’s so-called security and gaining access to 70,000 personal records of Obamacare enrollees.
He said he could’ve gotten a lot more records, but he stopped at 70,000 because he’d set a 4 minute limit on his experiment.
He also said he didn’t need any special software. He got in using a standard browser.
“It’s not just myself that’s saying this website is insecure,” he told Congress. “It’s also seven other independent security researchers that also looked at the research I’ve done and came to the exact same conclusion.”
It’s just one of many signs of the hypocrisy of Obamacrats that they hold up PP as if it were some kind of self-sacrificing charity group while demonizing actual self-sacrificing charity groups (like Catholic nuns who care for elderly poor) and any big business that doesn’t support its Leftist agenda (like Hobby Lobby). They also scream about the Koch brothers while ignoring George Soros, but that’s another story.
Today, I want to talk about the FACT that Planned Parenthood makes millions of dollars preaching safe sex and performing abortions. Their website (no, I’m not going to link to it) proudly proclaims their commitment to preventing unintended pregnancies.
The absolutely best possible way to do this is to promote abstinence outside of marriage. But PPFA scorns abstinence-based education and praises the Obama administration for effectively defunding it.
Why? Because Planned Parenthood would go broke preaching abstinence. So they don’t.
Planned Parenthood promotes sex, sex and more sex. The earlier and kinkier the better. Get your minor girlfriend or sister pregnant? No problemo, dude. Bring her in and we’ll vacuum out that little inconvenience and save you a world of trouble. Pay up and we won’t report you, so you can go back to banging her as often as you like.
Crude? Yes. Wrong? No.
Planned Parenthood maintains that their “safe sex” programs reduce pregnancies. But the results of a breakthrough study that analyzed Texas panhandle health department records from 1994 through 2010 demonstrates that closing Planned Parenthood clinics appears to be a simple and effective way way to reduce teen pregnancy.
January 13, 2014: Check out this tweet thread by a self-proclaimed fan of ObamaCare
1:53 PM If no one at @CoveredCA or Anthem will take my premium payment or answer the phone, how am I supposed to be covered as of Jan 1?
1:53 PM – No one has defended the ACA louder than I have, but this is insane. I pay online, but the money isn’t charged to my credit card.
1:54 PM – I phone Anthem Blue Cross and @CoveredCA, hear a recorded message, then get dropped. I have no idea if I’m covered or not at this point.
1:55 PM – I’ve paid TWICE. Online, and I receive a confirmation email. Then I get another reminder to pay them.
1:56 PM – But they don’t charge my credit card, and I can’t get hold of an actual person to answer questions.
1:58 PM – Apologies for the rant. Since Anthem refuses to hear me, I’ve chosen to shout impotently into the Twitterverse.
1:59 PM – Anthem just wasn’t prepared. Despite having YEARS to get ready for the ACA.
2:03 PM – The recorded message keeps blaming the ACA for the delays. It’s all Obama’s fault!
2:08 PM – Half the time, I get the “all circuits are busy” message. The rest of the time, the phone system hangs up on me.
2:09 PM – I’m technically in a rural area, so I only had the one choice of insurer. At least it’s a PPO.
2:15 PM – I’m hearing horror stories of people who’ve been trying for weeks to reach an actual person, on hold for 10 hours, etc.
2:18 PM – I think Anthem’s strategy is to just never answer calls and hope we all go away.
Interesting, isn’t it, how given a choice, she kneejerks to blaming the private insurance company that’s trying to provide a product in the face of massive and massively incompetent federal regulation?
Typical Dumbocrat. She prolly thinks having supported ObamaCare, she should get preferential treatment while signing up. Cuz like you know only evil right-wingnuts deserve to get screwed by the federales.
Here’s a tip for ya, honey. Go read up on the French Revolution. Or if real history is too hard for you, try watching every episode of the BBC’s brilliant series, Robin Hood, and pay attention to the rather critical point that Robin and his band were outlaws fighting high taxes and government oppression. Think: Tea Partiers with bows and arrows.
