For the first time by any administration in memory, the Obama budget forecast rejects the Medicare Trustees’ projections for long-run healthcare cost growth. Why would the White House do this?

Criminal, I think. Your opinion?
By the government AND the police. For absolutely no reason at all.
DHS admitted it. Destroyed all its assessment copies. But shared with Wisconsin’s intel and local police force. The police force kept its copy but won’t release it to affected parties.

In how to be cost effective.
A seemingly grassroots organization that’s mounted an online campaign to counter the tea party movement is actually the front end of an elaborate scheme that funnels funds — including sizable labor union contributions — through the offices of a prominent Democratic party lawyer.

Shady and dishonest for sure, but not illegal???? Criminy. It should be. It needs to be.
UPDATE: Via Instapundit. FOX has the list of donors. AFSCME is one of them. They gave $9.9M within one year, government money, union dues, to fend off Tea Party protesters.

Yes. It has been a Photoshop effort.
But very accurate.

What bothers me is the content of the supposed Healthcare bill(s).
Over 2,700 pages long for the last, latest version.
Is there anyone that knows all that is in there? All of it?
I have read a good percentage of it from its beginnings through to now.
There is a lot I don’t find necessary, or even good for any of us, in this monstrous bill.
There is too much hidden in this effort to “reform” our healthcare. Not to mention all the subsequent “unintended consequences” that will surely come about should this see the light of enactment.
Even if a Summit were to be held including the GOP, there is no guarantee enough will be “fixed” to assure the country that we won’t be taxed, fee-ed and denied care out of existence.
Sorry, but I am one of those that says – start over and make it smaller, simpler, easier to understand without earmarks and lobbied interests baked into this “reform.”
You have a little less than three years to go, Mr. President. That is most certainly plenty of time to not just do this right and fair to our population but to result in a piece of work that all could be proud of their involvement. Including and especially you. And please, don’t insult us. We are the public that makes this country what it is. We are the ones who voted this administration into office. To refer to us as soured and contaminating your bill is just plain wrong.
Don’t make us regret that. The clock is ticking. Get to work.
Yet, the White House insists that Anthem Blue Cross in California answer to them for raising their rates. Excuse me, “justify” their rates. (Isn’t this supposed to be a free enterprise system? You know, let the market drive itself?)
If health care costs are going upwards, shouldn’t an insurance business adjust similarly? They cannot stay in business if they are not allowed to.
Unbelievable. But Chris Hayes says that’s the case and “1,000% settled Law.”
First, this leftist’s math is bad. Second, he needs to prove this. Where, in the Constitution of the United States, does it say we apply Constitutional Rights to terrorists? Cite the location and verbage , Mr. Hayes. Show us. Third, terrorists shouldn’t even be on our soil when their intent is and has been to kill as many of us that they wish.
