Levi Sanders, Bernie Sanders

Cleaning up my stack of stuff: Why is it always the Socialists that decry “we are the wealthiest nation in history”?

Forgot I had transcribed this from WMUR’s CLOSE UP show (Aug 12, 2018) where Levi Sanders, running to be the Democrat candidate in NH’s Second Congressional District even as he lived in CD-1, said the magic words: On Tuesday or Wednesday, there will be one of the most important votes in the modern history of …

And more words from a Democrat Socialist, Levi Sanders. Guess what’s missing from his rant?

“What you just heard is that Chris Pappas doesn’t believe in a ‘Medicare For All’ single-payer healthcare system,” Sanders said. “So I want to ask Chris and all the other people who don’t believe in it:  How do you plan to deal with the issues of co-payments, deductibles and premiums?” “I talk to people all …

New Hampshire, Heroin, and Hassan

They say New Hampshire has a heroin problem. They also say Medicaid expansion will help. Kimberly Morin joins us to talk about the details and potential political motivations (on both sides) for hyping a heroin epidemic in New Hampshire.

Data Point – Obama: “We’re going to work with your employer to lower the cost of your premiums by up to $2,500 a year.”

Not quite, sport:  Obama has lowered your premium by -$5,500 (for those of you in Rio Linda, that means instead of saving you $2,500 a year, it is now costing you $3,000 MORE a year (a difference of $5,500 that is no longer in your pocket or your employer that helps to pay your premium) …

Get “Used” to This – Part 2

Steve just posted about the “Death Panel” deciding that women don’t need as many mammograms as folks have had in the past (and forget PSAs for prostate cancer protection for men).  These expert wondertwits have decided, most likely, that the cost to Government is not worth it (you won’t mind, will you?).  The Left is …

Revolution Foundation

The Daily Caller ran a story this weekend about a book set to come out tomorrow, by Mallory Factor, called “Shadowbosses: Government Unions Control America and Rob taxpayers Blind“.

Internet Doodlings – Another taste of Enviros using “We know what is best for you” to mask totalitarianism

Heh!  But again, not so heh!  We laugh, but they mean it.  Over at TreeHugger (they have become such a source of sport!), they were discussing the righteousness of NYC-Nanny-Chieftain Mayor Bloomberg’s (whose own dietary predilections do not match his public policy for the rest of his “citizens”) declaration that he would solve the obesity …

College Kids – getting the first bruntal financial slap by Obamacare

Remember, the HHS mandate by Secretary Sebelius was that even the healthcare insurance at Catholic universities (Franciscan University and Ave Maria University) had to offer contraceptives, abortifacients, sterilizations, and abortions – after all, it wasn’t an abridgement of conscience that was being sundered but that if they didn’t, Catholics theology was waging “the war on …
