Elections 2013

 Wednesday, November 6th Elections 2013 Clearly the two biggest elections on the national stage were the governors races in Virginia and New Jersey. In their own ways they are supposed to represent something grand about the Republican party and conservatism. In New Jersey, Chris Christie won handily with over 60% of the vote. Many people see this as the start of his 2016 presidential campaign. I can understand why some believe that to be the case. Where Christie fails as a potential GOP candidate is that many conservatives believe he isn't conservative enough to really energize the base. When it comes to Ch...

Wendy Davis is pro-life, except when it comes to killing babies Via @dailycaller

 DAILYCALLER.COM 3 Hours Ago Wendy Davis is pro-life, except when it comes to killing babies Via @dailycaller by  Jim Treacher Tweet You may know Wendy Davis as the Texas state senator who wore pink sneakers while filibustering for the right to kill as many babies as you want, became a liberal media darling, and is now trying to parlay that "success" into a gubernatorial campaign. But did you know she's also a hilarious stand-up comic? Ty Johnson,  Brownsville [TX] Herald : It was late June when Wendy Davis, a state senator from Fort Worth, rocketed to national prominence on the strength of a 11-hour filibuster of a bill being considered that would indirectly lead to closing abortion clinics across Texas… But while in Brownville Tuesday, Davis revealed her campaign for governor isn't based on her abortion filibuster and brightly colored shoes… Davis suggested that her views on abortion access do not mean she does not care about life. "I am pro-life," she sai...

Joe Biden Called and Congratulated the Wrong Man for Boston Mayoral Election

 MEDIAITE 2 Hours Ago Joe Biden Called and Congratulated the Wrong Man for Boston Mayoral Election by  Andrew Kirell Oh, Uncle Joe. After securing a victory in Tuesday evening's Boston mayoral election, Democratic mayor-elect  Marty Walsh  fielded congratulatory phone calls from President  Obama  and outgoing Mayor  Thomas Menino . Missing from that list? Vice President  Joe Biden . But here's the catch: Biden did call Marty Walsh. Just not  the  Marty Walsh. Instead, he called former Sen.  Edward Kennedy  campaign staffer Marty Walsh , beginning the conversation with "You son of a gun." MassLive scribe (and Mediaite contributor)  Garrett Quinn  reports tha t, according to staffers, the two spoke briefly before Biden called and left a voicemail on the  real  Walsh's phone. At least he initially called someone involved in politics and not any of the several dozen other Martin Walshes in the Boston metro area....

Massachusetts Rationing Shows What’s Coming to America Under Obamacare

 LIFE NEWS 2 Hours Ago Massachusetts Rationing Shows What's Coming to America Under Obamacare by Burke Balch, J.D. | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 11/6/13 6:54 PM National President Obama is holding up the Massachusetts health care law as a good precedent for what Obamacare will bring when fully implemented. It's a good precedent, all right–for the rationing now under way in the Bay State that the national law will all too soon impose on the entire country. In an October 30, 2013, speech in Boston's Faneuil Hall, the President claimed , "[A]ll the parade of horribles, the worst predictions about health care reform in Massachusetts never came true. They're the same arguments that you're hearing now. . . . [I]t's easy to scare folks. And it's no surprise that some to the same folks trying to scare people now are the same folks who've been trying to sink the Affordable Care Act from the beginning." At the National Right to Life Committee, we on...

Couple that Donated to Obama has Premiums Doubled, Coverage Weakened

 FRONTPAGE MAGAZINE 38 Minutes Ago Couple that Donated to Obama has Premiums Doubled, Coverage Weakened by  Daniel Greenfield They donated to Obama. They worked the phone banks for him.  And then they got theirs . San Francisco architect Lee Hammack says he and his wife, JoEllen Brothers, are "cradle Democrats." They have donated to the liberal group Organizing for America and worked the phone banks a year ago for President Obama's re-election. The couple — Lee, 60, and JoEllen, 59 — have been paying $550 a month for their health coverage — a plan that offers solid coverage, not one of the skimpy plans Obama has criticized. But recently, Kaiser informed them the plan would be canceled at the end of the year because it did not meet the requirements of the Affordable Care Act. The couple would need to find another one. The cost would be around double what they pay now, but the benefits would be worse. So much for bad apple plans. The problem wasn't a bad apple plan, but...

3.8+ Million Learn They Cannot Keep Their Health Plan

 NRSC.ORG 10 Hours Ago 3.8+ Million Learn They Cannot Keep Their Health Plan The Democrats told us if we liked our plan, we could keep our plan. Yesterday,  Megyn Kelly reported  the latest figure: 3.8+ million who may like their plan, will not be able to keep it. These are just preliminary reports from the individual insurance market in less than two dozen states. The numbers are already a startling reminder that the Democrats lied to us -- and the numbers are increasing daily. When all is said and done,  93 million Americans  may not be able to keep their insurance due to Obamacare.
