Obamacare “raided” $300 billion for Medicare Advantage and seniors will begin feeling the cuts next year, according to an analysis Tuesday by the House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee. Obamacare took $700 billion from Medicare and $300 billion from Medicare Advantage alone for its own funding, according to the subcommittee. The cuts to Medicare Advantage […]
Op-Ed: Why Do We Have a Medicaid Program? Illinois Review: http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2013/12/why-do-we-have-a-medicaid-program-.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+typepad%2FbYHz+%28Illinois+Review%29&utm_content=Yahoo!+Mail By Alieta Eck, M.D. – A Star Ledger headline reads: “ObamaCare fuels applicant boom for NJ Medicaid—Advocate hails 35% increase in October.” Almost 22,000 new applications were filed in October, up from 16,000 in September. Is this a triumph? Was a 990-page law needed to […]
BOTH got letters from the IRS on the SAME day! Illinois’s own C. Steven Tucker, who got a cancer patients insurance re-instated, is one of them – the cancer patient the other.

Senator Mary Landrieu of Louisiana is running a Facebook ad in an attempt to save her seat from slaughter in the 2014 election. The Affordable Care Act isn’t perfect, but its hope and promise are certainly something worth fighting for. That’s why I introduced legislation to let those told they would be able to retain their plan keep it […]

by: Diane Benjamin The name of the benefits provider isn’t important, but you should know this is a non-profit insurance provider. Stated in the Benefit Information notice is this: It’s been more than 5 years since co-payments were last increased for prescription drug benefits, and even longer for most deductible and out-of-pocket maximums. The notice […]
From: Congressman Steve Stockman This is an actual Obamacare ad. Democrats have somehow turned sex into a government entitlement.
Putting things in perspective: March 21, 2010 to October 1, 2013 is 3 years, 6 months, 10 days. December 7, 1941 to May 8, 1945 is 3 years, 5 months, 1 day. What this means is that in the time we were attacked at Pearl Harbor to the day Germany surrendered is not enough time […]
by: Diane Benjamin Yes death panels exist, and yes Obamacare takes $78 billion out of Medicare. If you still don’t believe ObamaCare is meant to limit healthcare for the “non-contributing” members of society, then why would Benedictine University hold a conference on Preventing Stealth Euthanasia? Fundamental Transformation. Die already!
by: Diane Benjamin This information was sent to me. I blocked out the company name, it’s not important. The Affordable Care Act affects everyone in America – get ready.

The website doesn’t work, the cost isn’t affordable, the penalty is MUCH less, the deductibles mean the insurance will probably never pay out a dime – but the people exposing the truth are “shady groups”?

by: Diane Benjamin The Democrats called Republicans terrorist, hostage takers, and many other vile names when the GOP wanted to delay the implementation of ObamaCare. The President said he would not negotiate with people holding a gun to his head. I’m not even sure it’s been 2 weeks since those comments. How things change! Have […]
by: C Steven Tucker Back on August 3rd, 2013 I wrote a piece exposing what I stated then will soon happen to millions of Americans if we do not support the Tea Party and Republican lead effort to defund Obamacare. In that piece, I stated when President Obama promised – “If you like your plan, you can […]
How much are the penalties for not buying a health plan? The penalties are not very high to begin with. In 2014, the fine to remain uninsured is $95 per person (up to a family maximum of $285, or 1 percent of family income, whichever is greater). But the penalty will increase more than sevenfold […]
This chart appeared shortly after the bill passed. It wasn’t complete. Imagine what it looks like now. Test: Find the death panels, they are there. Click on the picture to enlarge. Obviously this isn’t about improving healthcare, it’s about controlling you.
by: Chris Banescu It’s finally dawning on liberals, leftists, and progressives that conservatives were telling the truth when they warned about the fundamental problems and dangers of The ‘Affordable’ Care Act (ObamaCare). As reported in the San Jose Mercury News, reality came knocking for Obama voters and ObamaCare supporters last week. And many of them […]

Kurt Schlichter | Sep 23, 2013 I have to admit that the Congressional GOP’s Obamacare defunding strategy has me a little nervous – mostly because it just might work. When the GOP does something clever, I start looking for the other three horsemen of the apocalypse. Designing a strategy starts with understanding the ends you seek. Sure, […]

For many years, a ‘full-time employee’ was considered an employee who works 40 hours or more per week. Now, because […]
President Obama has tried to defend his health care plan lately by criticizing Republicans for trying to roll back ObamaCare without offering any alternatives — despite the fact that Republicans have offered several. In a White House news conference a week ago, the president said: “They used to say, ‘well, we’re going to replace it […]
Dear Judicial Watch Supporter, Judicial Watch is considering litigation challenging President Obama’s rewriting of Obamacare.

At the same time, he did not rewrite the law to […]
