Stupid Pelosi Partisan Pet Tricks

The left's senile figure head in the House of Representatives has been making a lot of truly ridiculous statements lately, such as:

• "It's almost a false argument to say we have a spending problem."
• "You cannot cut your way to deficit reduction."
• "Unemployment benefits are creating jobs faster than practically any other program."
• "We should only deport illegal aliens if the do something illegal."
• "Employers cutting hours is a good thing, it gives that person time to pursue their dreams and passions."
• "Think of an economy where poeple could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance."
• "Hamas is a humanitarian organization."
• "Every month that we do not have an economic recovery package 500 million Americans lose their jobs."
• "I don't think [Obama's] ever done anything for political reasons."
• "Everybody will have lower rates, better quality, and better access."
• "ObamaCare is lowering costs and the deficit."
• "I don't remember saying that everybody in the country would have a lower premium."
• "But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy."
• "Sincerity is the most important thing in acting. Once yo can fake that you've got it made."
• "I believe in natural gas as a clean, cheap alternative to fossil fuels."
• "Being the first woman speaker and breaking the marble ceiling is pretty important. Now it's time to move on."

It is well past time for Pelosi and other senile Democrats and Republicans, think McCain, to retire.

President Trump Gives Congress An Incentive to Repeal and Replace ObamaCare

White House Press Secretary released the following statement on 12 October 2017:

"Based on guidance from the Department of Justice, the Department of Health and Human Services has concluded that there is no appropriation for cost-sharing reduction payments to insurance companies under Obamacare. In light of this analysis, the Government cannot lawfully make the cost-sharing reduction payments. The United States House of Representatives sued the previous administration in Federal court for making these payments without such an appropriation, and the court agreed that the payments were not lawful. The bailout of insurance companies through these unlawful payments is yet another example of how the previous administration abused taxpayer dollars and skirted the law to prop up a broken system. Congress needs to repeal and replace the disastrous Obamacare law and provide real relief to the American people."

Some are saying this is a clear sign of President Trump's intent to expedite the demise of ObamaCare. Still the decision is not surprising as some providers have already increased their rates in anticipation of this order based upon a court rulings last year. Some background:

May 2016 the U.S. House of Representatives prevailed in its case against the Department of Health And Human Services when the court ruled the Obama administration had been improperly subsidizing ObamaCare with cost-sharing reduction payments.

So far during the first year of President Trump's first term, Congress has failed to deliver on its campaign promises and President Trump's oft stated intention to Repeal and Replace ObamaCare. The statement above is most likely a move by President Trump' to incentivise Congress to do their job as cancellation of further the cost-sharing reduction payments will most likely expedite the inevitable self-implosion and failure of ObamaCare.

Okay before you castigate President Trump or the GOP for following the law, you must remember a few background facts.

• First, America became mired in the swamp known as ObamaCare because Obama and the Democrats schemed and maneuvered to dubiously enact ObamaCare into being almost entirely, except for a single Republican vote, along party lines.
• Second, Obama and the Democrats lied en masse about the benefits of ObamaCare with numerous if you like your doctor, healthcare plan lies.
• Third, the most likely purpose Obama and his deep state minions had in making the unlawful cost-sharing reduction payments to insurance companies is because the payments had the effect subsidizing insurance company losses which in turn kept premiums artificially depressed thereby increasing public acceptance of his dubious legislation and failing presidency.
• Fourth, Obama mis-appropriated funds from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to make the unlawful cost-sharing reduction payments to insurance companies.

The only thing Trump has done is follow the law.

Nota Bene: It is quite possible that there are numerous crimes implicated in this Obama Administration fiasco, to wit:

The Antideficiency Act prohibits federal employees from:

• making or authorizing an expenditure from, or creating or authorizing an obligation under, any appropriation or fund in excess of the amount available in the appropriation or fund unless authorized by law. 31 U.S.C. § 1341(a)(1)(A).
• involving the government in any obligation to pay money before funds have been appropriated for that purpose, unless otherwise allowed by law. 31 U.S.C. § 1341(a)(1)(B).
• accepting voluntary services for the United States, or employing personal services not authorized by law, except in cases of emergency involving the safety of human life or the protection of property. 31 U.S.C. § 1342.
• making obligations or expenditures in excess of an apportionment or reapportionment, or in excess of the amount permitted by agency regulations. 31 U.S.C. § 1517(a).

Federal employees who violate the Antideficiency Act are subject to two types of sanctions: administrative and penal. Employees may be subject to appropriate administrative discipline including, when circumstances warrant, suspension from duty without pay or removal from office. In addition, employees may also be subject to fines, imprisonment, or both.

Nuclear Option Karma

November 21, 2013 the Senate votes, at the urging of then Senate Leader and all time obstructionist Harry Reid to adopt the Nuclear Option, which is a change to Senate procedural rules reduce the number of votes necessary to override a filibuster from a super majority of 60 votes to a simple majority of 51 votes. Conjecture suggests Democrats want this change to stack the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals which has been historically conservative and one of the least overturn Circuit Courts with liberals so that when the ObamaCare challenge is heard by the court it will rule for ObamaCare. Republicans complain Reid's political hackery will come back to haunt the Democrats, but they approve the procedural change on a partly line vote, claim this is but a minor change because the scope is limited and does not apply to Supreme Court nominees.

King v. Burwell is argued before the 4th Circuit May 2014. The question Burwell asks the court to affirm is whether the clear and specific language in ObamaCare requires states to implement an ObamaCare exchange as a prerequisite for its residents to receive ObamaCare subsidies as thirty-eight Attorney's General believe it does and the lower court who originally ruled that it does. The big problem for Obama and liberals is if the lower court's ruling is upheld, this will render ObamaCare even more useless than it already is. Liberals counter argument rides on the interpretation of a collateral statement that most everyone else says is of little consequence. It is a vague ambiguous statement liberals are blindly holding onto because, well the greater good of healthcare is at stake. Because of Harry Reid's procedural change, the 4th Circuit has been stacked by Obama. Where before conservatives outnumbered liberals, the tide has turned and now liberals outnumber conservatives. Just as Reid had hoped, the newly reformed court reverses the lower ruling upholding the clear plain language. Harry Reid is smiling, convinced this Nuclear Option has been achieved its goal of protecting ObamaCare. Meanwhile Republicans are mad as hell.

Justice Roberts comes through for Obama once again as the Supreme Court upholds the 4th Circuits reversal. Charitably some say Justice Roberts votes on ObamaCare cases were cast as a way to protect the Supreme Court from the backlash of an unfavorable ruling. Less charitable folks, the author herein included, call Roberts a coward and a traitor.

February 13, 2016 Justice Antonin Scalia's dies unexpectedly. Conservatives are extremely worried. Obama has a little under 9 months left before the end of his reign of Muslim / liberal extremism and the cornerstone conservative of the Supreme Court needs to be replaced. Obama previous nominees have been partisan liberal hacks, intellectually vapid. Another liberal will tip the court liberal for at least a generation, perhaps two. Two months later Obama nominates Chief Judge Merrick Garland from the DC US Court of Appeals. With just a bit under seven months remaining in Obama's tenure, liberals push hard for the Senate to hold confirmation hearings for Judge Garland. Vice President Joe Biden demands the Senate hold confirmation hearings and claims Republican obstructionism is unprecedented. Uncle Joe completely forgets his speech saying President Bush should not offer a nominee during an election year saying the right belongs to the next president.

Fast forward to President Trump's election and Trump's nomination of Judge Neal Gorsuch to the Supreme Court to replace Justice Scalia. Democrats are in a tizzy, they are mad as the dickens at Hillary's loss, they are mad at the Senate Democrats for failing to get Merrick's nomination to the Senate floor for discussion, and they are threatening to block Judge Gorsuch's nomination even though the Senate had recently unanimously confirmed Gorsuch to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. Saying liberals like Chuckie Schumer, Fauxcahontas Liz Warren, comedian Al Franken and others are hypocrites to challenge Judge Gorsuch's nomination now, Senate Republicans threaten to extend Reid's Nuclear Option to Supreme Court nominations.

As all this played out across the news, conservatives were concerned mealy mouthed Senator Mitch McConnell who had caved to numerous liberal demands while he was the Minority Leader would continue to cave to liberal demands and they are afraid he will buckle under the liberal's onslaught and cave to liberal' demands to shelve the extension of the Nuclear Option to Supreme Court nominees as reparations for Conservatives blocking Obama's nominee Merrick Garland.

Rumors swirl. Mitch will cave. No he will not, Yes, he will. In the end, Mitch rises to the occasion and delivers Gorsuch's confirmation.

Ain't Karma grand?

You Have A Right To Be Offended With Regularity

Professor Mike Adams, UNC Wilmington, provides an awesome counter point to the far more prevalent liberal Fascist Political Correctness poisoning young minds across America's liberal college campuses.

"Let’s get something straight right now. You have no right to be unoffended. You have a right to be offended with regularity. It is the price you pay for living in a free society. If you don’t understand that you are confused and dangerously so. In part, I blame your high school teachers for failing to teach you basic civics before you got your diploma."

Portland Killer A Far Left Loon

The left rushed to label the Portland Killer Jeremy Joseph Christian a Trump supporter and a member of the #AltRight. Problem is, he is very much a liberal. An original Bernie supporter he hated both #Hildabeest and President Trump.

Here is an excellent recounting of all of the left's #FakeNews surrounding the killer:

The media has abdicated its responsibility vís-a-vís the objective reporting and is instead trying to bring about the demise of America with their #FakeNews lies.

Political Correctness is Fascism Pretending to be Manners

I find it ironic that liberals are worried about a Trump presidency, some even going so far as to suggest his tenure will be tantamount to Fascism because of his patriotism, read right-wing nationalism, and espousal of personal accountability, freedoms and libertarian views, read antithetical liberal views. Ironically liberals are completely obtuse to the liberal Fascism of Barack Obama.

Putting aside patriotism for a moment, there is NO difference between a Fascist dictator issuing onerous, oppressive, and authoritarian edicts and Obama making generally false statements supporting liberal ideology and using his evil minion administrative agencies like the IRS, FEC, EPA, and the DOJ to suppress conservatives and force them into alignment with a liberal ideology they oppose.

Such partisanship used to be off-limits. Both sides understood public opinion like a pendulum swings both ways and each side maintained some decorum. Obama, Reid and Pelosi seemed to have changed all that, emboldened they seized on the .

The Hatch act used to be enforced to prevent such collusion, but Obama has purposely circumvented and ignored it just like he did with the Constitution.
