This headline from Politico made me laugh out loud: Public sours on health care reform as midterms loom. Really? They’ve just NOW soured? The public liked this policy stinker at one point? Uh, no. They’ve never liked it. Jennifer Haberkorn reports this shocker: The Kaiser Health Tracking Poll has support for the bill dropping seven [...]
. How much do Missourian voters hate Obamacare? They hate it by a 73% – 27% margin. And even in very liberal St. Louis, 30% of the voters there voted FOR Proposition C. What did proposition C state? From Ballotpedia: Official Ballot Title: Shall the Missouri Statutes be amended to: Deny the government authority to [...]
Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli took Obamacare to court today in U.S. District Court in Richmond. Judge Henry Hudson, a Bush appointee and former U.S. Attorney in the high-profile ‘Rocket Docket’ in the Eastern District of Virginia is a very solid judge. Many Virginia lawyers, including your truly and Doug Mataconis, practiced before him when [...]
But another issue that we need to consider is that now that the law is in place, it might not be as difficult to modify it in the future. A modification of this law would be disastrous to the housing market, as most Americans are now upside down in their homes.
The target of all this venom is the federal government. Bad enough that 71% of the population is somewhat angry versus 27% that are [somewhat] not angry – a net of -44%. The “very angry” folks clock in at 46% over a mere 10% of those that are “not at all angry” – a whopping [...]
In Rasmussen’s polling on ObamaCare over the past couple of months, more people have disapproved than approved by a margin of about 6-13 points. So the fact that the boondoggle is unpopular is not news. But today’s poll, conducted over the weekend, with half polled before the Saturday night vote in the Senate and half [...]
Every health care bill on Capitol Hill has it: the requirement that everybody in the country buy an insurance policy. If you don’t do it, you pay a fine. It is disturbing that nobody on the left seems to think twice about the government ordering private citizens to purchase something they may not want to [...]
I have a better idea. Why don’t we just find those 11% who stand to gain coverage from ObamaCare and buy them a frickin’ policy with Blue Cross? I am pretty sure we could do that for under $829 billion. But the White House hasn’t called yet for my opinion, so we are stuck with [...]
The writing was on the wall, but it is official. The Senate Finance Committee voted to kill the public option in ObamaCare. Sen. Jay Rockefeller’s (D-W.Va.) amendment went down by a lopsided (and bipartisan) margin of 15-8, with Democrats Baucus, Carper of Delaware, Conrad of North Dakota, Lincoln of Arkansas, and Nelson of Florida, joining [...]
Maybe if Obama stayed off TV for a few days, his numbers would improve. The guy has turned into Billy Mays. From Rasmussen. Fifty-six percent (56%) of voters nationwide now oppose the health care reform proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. That’s the highest level of opposition yet measured and includes 44% who are [...]
