Obamacare Leaves Doctors On the Hook for Deadbeats

The Affordable Care Act doles out three months of free health care to individuals who choose to default on their premiums; providers and insurers pick up the tab.

Tucked inside nearly 11,000 pages of the Affordable Care Act is a little-known provision that doles out three months of free health care to individuals who choose to default on their premiums. People who receive the federal subsidy to be part of Obamacare will be allowed to incur a three-month "grace period" if they can't pay their premiums and then simply cancel their policies, stiffing the doctors and hospitals. Their only repercussion is that they have to wait until the following year's open enrollment if they want coverage on the exchange.

The Southern Poverty Law Center And Violent Bullying

March 19, 2013

Bullying is not a new phenomenon; it's as old as man. But bullying has reached a point of near epidemic proportions, with one in four children experiencing bullying and up to 35 percent of the U.S. workforce reporting being bullied at work.

Bullying is wrong, and should have no defenders. Bullying knows no boundaries. It's not just boys on the playground or people at work; it can even be organizations on the national stage as was revealed in a federal courtroom on February 6th. What was unveiled in the court chambers was the reality that some of the nation's biggest bullies hide behind the facade of being against bullying!

On Sunday, Reuters reported Fiat and Chrysler, which Fiat owns, are on the verge of signing an agreement to produce Jeeps in China, and they may make the announcement as early as Monday at the Detroit Auto Show.

This report debunks the supposedly neutral fact-checking organization Politifact's claim that Mitt Romney's campaign advertisement during the 2012 that alleged Obama sold Chrysler to Italians "who are going to build Jeeps in China" was 2012's "Lie of the Year." Politifact announced that Mitt Romney's "Jeep" ad was its "2012 Lie of the Year" even though the ad was factually true.

ESPN Suspends Commentator 'Until Further Notice' for RGIII Remarks

On Friday, ESPN suspended commentator Rob Parker "until further notice" for calling Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III, who is African-American, a "cornball brother" because Griffin has a white fiancee and may be a Republican.

"Following yesterday's comments, Rob Parker has been suspended until further notice," announced ESPN spokesperson Josh Krulewitz. "We are conducting a full review." On Thursday's episode of ESPN's "First Take," Parker suggested Griffin, the star rookie Redskins signal caller from Baylor, was insufficiently black and may not be "one of us" or "down for the cause" because of the color of his fiancee's skin and his rumored political views.

The Des Moines Register, the left-of-center and most influential newspaper in Iowa that endorsed President Barack Obama in 2008, endorsed Mitt Romney on Saturday.

The Register alled the Republican the "stronger candidate" who could "forge compromise" to pull America's economy "out of the doldrums." Romney is the first Republican the paper has endorsed for president in 40 years when it supported Richard Nixon. "We need Iowa to help get America back on track. I am honored to have the @DMRegister's endorsement," Romney tweeted from his @MittRomney account shortly after the paper published the endorsement.

Media Ignores Increased Deaths, Casualties in Afghanistan Under Obama

September 11, 2012

On the somber 11th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, nearly 2,000 members of the U.S. military have died in Afghanistan since the war started in response to the attacks in 2011.

The Defense Department has tallied 1,987 deaths. The Associated Press has counted 1,980. Other organizations put the number above 2,000. In addition, according to the Defense Department, 17,519 service members have been wounded in Afghanistan. What is more striking, though, is more U.S. soldiers have been killed and wounded during President Barack Obama's first term in office than former President George W. Bush's two terms. And the anti-war mainstream media that regularly counted the number of deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan under Bush, for the most part, has been silent on the number of deaths and casualties that have resulted under Obama.

A Mississippi NAACP executive is in jail after being convicted of voter fraud for fraudulently casting absentee ballots, including for four dead people.

Lessadolla Sowers, who is a member of the Tunica County NAACP Executive Committee, was convicted and sentenced in April for what a judge said were crimes that cut "against the fabric of our free society." She was given a five-year sentence for each of the ten counts of voter fraud for which she was convicted, but the sentencing judge allowed her to serve the terms concurrently, according to the Tunica Times. Matthew Vadum, author of Subversion, Inc., notes Sowers's DNA was found on the inner seals of five envelopes that contained the absentee ballots, and liberal groups like the NAACP and ACORN have had a history of such shenanigans.

CNN Says Don't Rush to Judgment on FRC Shooting, Pushed Tea Party-Giffords Shooting Meme

Friday on CNN, at the conclusion "CNN Newsroom" shortly before 1 p.m. EST, anchor Ashleigh Banfield ran a segment that urged caution in judging the motives of Floyd Corkins, who shot a guard at the Family Research Council's Washington, D.C. building.

"I hate your politics ... that's exactly what Floyd Corkins allegedly said right before shooting a security guard," Banfield said in introducing the segment (the bar at the bottom of the screen read, "Political Motive Suspected In Shooting"). Banfield emphasized "I", "hate," "your', and "politics" to hammer home the shooter's words. Despite the shooter's alleged own words, Banfield then had a discussion with a legal expert about how people should not rush to judge the potential motives of the shooter, because the shooter, for all anyone knows, could be deranged. Banfield then cited Jared Loughner, the person who shot former Arizona Representative Gabby Giffords, as an example of an instance in which the whole picture was not known immediately after the incident.

In what may contradict testimony by Obama administration officials under oath and may be a violation of federal law, The Daily Caller obtained emails that show Timothy Geithner's Treasury Department "was the driving force behind terminating the pensions of 20,000 salaried retirees at the Delphi auto parts manufacturing company," and the move, according to The Daily Caller, "appears to have been made solely because those retirees were not members of labor unions."
