Maybe the politicos should have read the bill. It’s looking like ObamaCare won’t survive even if Congress can’t manage to repeal it. The nation’s largest health insurer, UnitedHealth Group, said last week that it’s losing too much — $425 million — from policies sold on the health exchanges, and may have to pull out by 2017. The company ... MORE

by Michael Bastasch. Using government as a weapon.

Democrat's Propaganda Battling The Motivated Voter
by Barry Farber. There’s one battleground where the Democrats are walloping the body fluids out of the Republicans. It’s fitting nobody talks about it because that battlefield is beyond obscure. In fact, few know it exists! It can be summed up in one word Americans never got the hang of in the first place. The word is “propaganda”! Americans tend to ... MORE

by Ben Shapiro. Ever in search of benefits to hand leftist constituencies, Democrats have decided to give goodies to their most natural constituency of all: criminals.

Andrew Napolitano: The Mistress of Deception
Don't trust that tongue, even if it's notarized. The self-inflicted wounds of Hillary Rodham Clinton just keep manifesting themselves. She has two serious issues that have arisen in the past week; one is political and the other is legal. Both have deception at their root. Her political problem is one of credibility. We know from her emails that ... MORE
A. Barton Hinkle: The Parties Turn It Up To 11
GOP moving rightward, while Dems move leftward. "Look, I imagine that there's theoretically a chance that [we] all went from being radical extremist crazies to Washington sellouts in 12 hours," South Carolina Republican Rep. Mick Mulvaney said the other day. "But maybe a more likely narrative is that we really think that this is a good ... MORE
George Will: Supreme Court Picks Will Be Critical
Slowing the rate of tyranny. A supremely important presidential issue is being generally neglected because Democrats have nothing interesting to say about it and Republicans differ among themselves about it. Four Supreme Court justices are into the fourth quarters of their potential centuries — Stephen Breyer (77), Antonin Scalia (79), ... MORE
Boehner Hands Ryan A Defeat On The Way Out The Door
by David Harsanyi. Grass-roots conservatives have many unrealistic expectations and political objectives. And then sometimes they have a good point. The new budget deal arranged by John Boehner and Democrats— approving
$50 billion of additional spending in 2016 and $30 billion in 2017—will
be split between domestic discretionary ... MORE
Andrew Napollitano: A Midwife To Chaos And Her Perjury
A confirmed liar asks for your vote. The New York Times' Maureen Dowd captured the moment last weekend when she referred to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as "the midwife to chaos" in Libya. Dowd apparently came to that conclusion after watching Clinton bobbing and weaving and admitting and denying as she was confronted with ... MORE
Women Have Suffered More Under Obama Policies
by Stephen Moore. Now that Hillary Clinton has, by default, sewn up the Democratic nomination, expect Democrats to play the gender card for all its worth. In August, Clinton lashed out at the GOP field: "extreme views on women, we expect from some of the terrorist groups ... but it's a little hard to take from Republicans who want to be the ... MORE
Victor Davis Hanson: Can California Be Saved?
So naturally rich but so poorly run. Crime is back up in California. Los Angeles reported a 20.6 percent
increase in violent crimes over the first half of 2015 and nearly an 11
percent increase in property crimes.
Last year, cash-strapped California taxpayers voted for Proposition 47,
which so far has let thousands of convicted criminals go free ... MORE
Stephen Moore: Winning the Debt-Limit Fight
Putting the brakes on exploding debt. During his eight years in office, Barack Obama is on pace to have increased the national debt by a horrific $8 trillion — and, ironically, the folks on Wall Street and the mavens of the media still portray congressional Republicans as the fiscal bad boys for trying to slow down the blizzard of borrowing. ...

Thomas Sowell: Undefined Words Are A Big Plus In Politics
Charlatans work the hot buttons. At the recent televised debate among candidates for the Democrats' nomination for president, Hillary Clinton declared that "the wealthy pay too little" in taxes and "the middle class pays too much." Some people might wish to argue about whether that is true or not, but no rational argument can be made on either ... MORE

Hillary Knows Civil Liberties And Executive-Power Abuse Only Matters When Republicans Run The White House
by Matt Welch. Hillary Clinton is nothing if not responsive to the changing winds of
Democratic Party opinion. As CNN's Anderson Cooper succinctly put it to
her in the very first question of last week's Democratic presidential debate,
"You were against same-sex marriage. Now you're for it. You defended
President Obama's immigration policies. ... MORE
Poll: Gun Control Far Scarier Than ‘Mass Shootings’
by Awr Hawkins. On October 13, Chapman University released its Survey of American Fears and revealed that more than twice as many Americans fear gun control than fear “mass shootings.” While those on the left may scratch their heads to wonder how this could be, the facts are that gun control leads to gun-free zones, which, in turn, appear ...

Bad things are always someone else's fault. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid has decided to sue the makers of the exercise band that he says caused an injury that left him blind in his right eye.

Evidence Suggests Most Americans Are Really Embracing Big Government Paternalism Over Individual Liberty
by Jerry Taylor. The Founders weep while King George smiles. The libertarian moment in American politics—foretold just last year in the New York Times magazine—is like the horizon; always retreating as we advance upon it. The political events of 2015 are a brutal reminder about how far this country is from embracing libertarianism and how alien ... MORE
