Laff It Up, Tax-Lovers

American Thinker

by Randall Hoven

April 10, 2010

The national debt problem has become so apparent that it is recognized even in San Francisco now. Would raising taxes help?

How do we solve this problem? Can't cut Medicare; we don't want Grandpa to die. Can't cut Social Security; we don't want Grandpa eating dog food. Can't cut interest payments; Grandpa needs to cash in his government bonds every so often to afford his utility bills. And within those critical ten years, I become Grandpa.

Obama executive actions seen as a threat to the Constitution

July 15, 2014

A prominent law professor and avowed supporter of the Obama White House will tell the House on Wednesday that the president has created one of the biggest constitutional crises in the country's history and will endorse House Republicans' effort to sue to rein him in. Jonathan Turley, a professor at George Washington University, will say President Obama is trampling the founders' vision for the country in his push to circumvent Congress, and he will demand Republicans and Democrats alike forget their party labels to unify against this White House's power grab.

August 16, 2005

A new nationwide study released by the nonpartisan Bay Area Center for Voting Research (BACVR) ranks the political leanings of every American city and finds that Detroit, Michigan is the most liberal and Provo, Utah the most conservative.

In all, the BACVR researchers examined voting patterns of 237 American cities with populations of over 100,000 and ranked them each on liberal and conservative scales. The list of Americas most liberal cities is dominated by cities with large African American populations that are concentrated in the Northeast, Midwest and California. Conversely, the study found that the staunchest conservative cities are clustered in the South and interior West and have extremely low numbers of African American residents.

Good News on IRS Obamacare Power Grab

americancommitment.org

May 2, 2013

Great news! Our friends at the Competitive Enterprise Institute today announced a legal challenge to the IRS Obamacare power grab.

We've written about the power grab here, here, and here - but the short version is the law gives states the power to opt out of the huge new subsidies and employer penalty taxes. But when most states exercised the right, the IRS attempted to illegally rewrite the law to force those states back into the subsidy-and-penalty scheme. American Commitment activists flooded the Senate last year with letters demanding a vote to overturn the outrageous IRS rule. And we led a coalition of 46 free-market groups. But the Senate failed to act - even though Republicans had enough signatures to force a vote. Fortunately, with today's announcement, small businesses are standing up for themselves and taking on the IRS!

ObamaCare vs. RomneyCare: Are You Ready for the Truth?

May 13, 2012

This chart is an excerpt from my new book "Romney Bashing for Morons", which is available now at Amazon.com. It is my ObamaCare vs. RomneyCare comparison chart, annotated with footnotes referencing the sources of all the facts contained therein.

Are there other available credible sources, and other interpretations of the very same data? Of course there are. This is not an exhaustive list of all known sources of information on the two health care reform laws. It's simply a list of the sources I used to put this simple comparison chart together. Use it as a starting point, and do your own homework. If you're depending on the Obama administration and the snarky Democrats for your information about the two health care reform plans (and most people are, whether they know it or not) then you deserve whatever you end up with.

Obamacare Fact: $1 of Income Could Charge You $9,355 in Premiums

August 11, 2013

It's funny how we learn about the pitfalls of Obamacare, just months before the program begins.

This week, the IRS confirmed, "a household earning an annual income that is just $1 more than 400 percent of the Federal Poverty Level is ineligible for an Obamacare subsidy, period." The Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare, requires all Americans to obtain health insurance, whether from their employer, or an exchange orchestrated by their state. How much you pay for your healthcare strictly parallels your annual income. In some cases, if your annual income increases just $1, your health-insurance premiums could increase $9,355 per year.

Obama Tells Teachers Not To Reprimand Black Students

americanoverlook.com

August 8, 2013

Pres. Obama is asking public school teachers to "take it easy" on black students who misbehave.

On July 26, 2012, Obama signed an Executive Order to create the African American Education Initiative. The order births a new federal bureaucracy and effectively offers black students a green light to misbehave at school. Obama asked public school teachers to reduce the number of disciplinary actions taken against black students. Specifically, it calls on schools to "not rely on methods that result in disparate use of disciplinary tools." The order, however, does not include any suggestions to improve black students' inappropriate behavior. Members of the new bureaucracy will work to pressure public school systems into complying with the president's order. To do that, public schools must utilize a quota system.

Governors Should Seize Momentum to Reject Health Insurance Exchanges

November 9, 2012

Today Americans for Prosperity (AFP) the nation's largest and most effective advocate for economic freedom released the following statement calling on governors to reject the state-based health insurance exchanges.

"Governors should join the growing chorus in sending a strong message to Washington that their states will not implement these flawed health insurance exchanges" said Nicole Kaeding, AFP state policy manager. "Exchanges raise prices on consumers and increase taxes on hardworking families." Multiple governors have announced this week that they will not create an exchange. This list now includes Rick Scott (FL), Bobby Jindal (LA), Sam Brownback (KS), Rick Perry (TX), Nikki Haley (SC), Nathan Deal (GA), Robert McDonnell (VA) and Jay Nixon (MO). AFP applauds these governors.

Dangerous Times: Benghazi Means Betrayal

May 26, 2014

"Danged if I know!" answered Dr. Susan Rice when asked about the administration's multiple betrayals of U.S. policy, its many violations of ordinary decency, its massive electoral coverups, Obama's daily bad faith lies to the American people.

Instead of "Danged if I know!" Dr. Rice is perfectly able to speak educated English, and with her Oxford doctorate she fully understands the many levels of treachery revealed by the Benghazi assault on 9/11/12 -- the 11th anniversary of the biggest attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor.
