Obamacare was designed to fail. It’s a gigantic con job. It was drawn up in such a way that it would eventually collapse thus theoretically clearing the way for single-payer Well, DUH! Of course Obamacare was designed to fail. The system is built on lies. It is a Trojan horse for a total government takeover of health care in the United States. In an op-ed in The Hill, Jeffrey I. Barke, M.D., who practices family medicine in Newport Beach, Calif., examines the issue. He writes: As ObamaCare’s troubles mount, I’ve heard my patients and my peers in healthcare ask: How...

The idea that the latest all-American jihadi acted alone defies credulity, so it’s no surprise that authorities are already investigating the possibility he was part of a terror cell. The bizarre, impromptu press conference held by the perpetrator’s father merely adds to suspicions that Ahmad Khan’s jihadist intentions were known before this weekend’s terror jaunt across the Tri-State Area. Some of the best coverage has, unsurprisingly, come from overseas. This article in the Daily Mail explores some aspects of this story which are being curiously underplayed, including the fact that the terrorist in custody tried to bring his Pakistani wife...

Venezuelans are using a new euphemism for starvation. They call it “Maduro’s diet. If socialist Bernie Sanders ran a media outlet, we might see the above headline on a story about how starving Venezuelans have been eating tasty roadkill, vermin, and municipal waste in order to survive. Don’t laugh. Remember that Sanders said breadlines are a good thing. “You know, it’s funny. Sometimes American journalists talk about how bad a country is when people are lining up for food. That’s a good thing. In other countries, people don’t line up for food. The rich get the food and the poor...

Is it illness that's causing Hillary Clinton to stage phony campaign events, or has attendance been so weak that "crowds" must be computer generated? A youtube video entitled: "SHOCKING !!! PROOF That Hillary Clinton Rally In Greensboro NC IS A "FAKE" makes it obvious that the Clinton campaign rally is a green-screen sham. Click on the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCP3HIhQgLI

For years genuine Catholics have been forced to watch helplessly as Democrat, fake Catholics have trashed Catholic doctrine for political gain with little more than a peep from the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. We have been forced to shy away from discussions about the feckless response our Church leaders have displayed in the face of Democrat fake Catholic demands. When the Bishops give an inch or appear to give an inch the fake Catholic Democrats demand a yard. This has embarrassed us to no end; but things might be changing. After years of remaining largely silent while Democrat fake...

Therefore—say, in a Tom Clancy novel—in some unfortunate, unknown circumstance, Huma Abedin-Weiner could become our first unelected Muslim President There are alleged, newly leaked e-mails between Huma Abedin-Weiner, Cheryl Mills, and Bill Clinton’s Wife, which reportedly reveal that if Bill Clinton’s Wife wins the Presidency, then Huma Abedin-Weiner will be appointed Secretary of State. This is fantastic news…if you are a Muslim, member of CAIR or the Muslim Brotherhood, or even just a casual Jihadist infiltrator with a confused view of true Holy Islam. And, Huma (rhymes with Poobah) would, indeed, make a fitting successor to John “I Love Me”...

“It’s a phony system. Lester’s a Democrat. They’re all Democrats. Ok, it’s a very unfair system.” Donald Trump says the moderator of next week’s presidential debate is being pushed into favoring Hillary Clinton, unlike Matt Lauer did in the last contest. Trump says NBC anchor Lester Holt is being targeted for intimidation by those in the media and the Democrat party who don’t want a repeat of the September 7th forum in which Clinton was widely seen as the loser. “Matt did a fantastic job,” said Trump in an interview with Bill O’Reilly of Fox News Monday night.

Barry Soetoro , Hillary Clinton are about as competent as they can get, utterly fit and qualified, and prove it by cooperating with Russian president Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Lavrov, America's friends, to excise Islamic State from MidEast Barack Obama (not his real name) joined the Hillary Clinton campaign before the results of the FBI’s soft-ball interview was revealed, that would, under ordinary circumstances, have resulted in an indictment and a long internment. The president assured us about the impartiality of the Department of Justice by saying he has no way of knowing the outcome. In the background behind...

In 1968, Lyndon Baines Johnson forced the gun control act of 1968 through a reluctant congress.  The act was not popular, but Johnson's ability to twist arms and bribe Congressmen was legendary.  As part of the deal making to get GCA 1968 through Congress, a provision for amnesty of arms controlled by the National Firearms Act (NFA) was included.  The original amnesty only ran for 30 days, from October 2 to November 1, 1968. In the original amnesty, no tax was charged.  It was not limited by state or to certain dates of manufacture.  Information collected during the registration...

Trying not to offend someone these days is really hard apparently. When you do, it’s often those people shouting for peace and calm that like to assault people they disagree with. Probably the most hilarious way of offending someone, however, is when they are offended that you aren’t offended by something! That’s exactly what happened to model Christine Teigen earlier this week. As was also reported by Newsbusters, Teigen ran into some unexpected hot water when she made two seemingly innocent tweets about how she found the word “oriental” to be odd when talking about her salad dressing:

I was watching the ESPN Monday Night Football preview show and there was the scroll on the left side of the screen of what was upcoming. On item had the Aguilas (Eagles) v. Osos (Bears). This is PC pandering for Hispanic Heritage Month starting this week. I know this because of course the Fortune 500 company I work for distributed an e-mail telling us cubicle serfs it was Hispanic Month and we should all appreciate it. When I saw that I turned off the tv and walked away. The NFL and their PC corporate partners have broken my back. This...

It's all about him. Then again, anything is better than making it about her. “Vote for Hillary because it’s very exciting to think of electing her. She would be such a great president.” Oh. Sorry. Just kidding. If you’re looking for an argument to motivate Democrats to get out and vote, you don’t want to use the one offered above, because your objective is not to get everyone a) laughing at you; or b) groaning with disgust. As Democrats grow increasingly desperate amidst the dramatic shift in the polls toward Donald Trump, they have to offer some sort of rationale...

How's that for 'Narrative' If there’s one thing the left has taught us, it’s that the NRA is an evil organization that panders to gun nuts, craves violence, wants children to die, and works for the destruction of all that is good and decent in America. While they like claim otherwise, people with guns never stop mass-casualty attacks, guns are pretty much never used in self-defense, and carrying one in public is a recipe for disaster. If there are two things the left has taught us, it’s that the NRA is evil - and cops are just as bad. After...

One down... According to NBC 4 New York, the man behind the bombs in New York and New Jersey has been arrested after a gun battle with police. Ahmad Rahami, a 28-year-old U.S. citizen born in Afghanistan, was taken into custody after a gun battle with police in Linden, New Jersey, that left two officers injured, four law enforcement sources and other officials said. At least one officer was shot in the chest during the takedown, but was not seriously wounded because he was wearing a bullet proof vest. The other was hit by glass shrapnel, officials said.

Corasaniti, Confessore, and Barbaro aren’t legitimate journalists Once again the paid professional liars at the New York Times have proven they can’t be trusted to report anything accurately. In this case the liars of record are Nick Corasaniti, Nicholas Confessore, and Michael Barbaro. These guys tried to make it look like GOP candidate Donald Trump was threatening or encouraging violence against his Democrat counterpart Hillary Clinton. Of course, Trump did nothing of the sort. Their wildly dishonest article from Sept. 16 begins:

Result: Total meltdown. We told you on Friday about how and why the media suddenly decided to return to the Obama birther story. It wasn’t because it suddenly became relevant again. It wasn’t because Trump brought it up. And it certainly wasn’t because any new information came to light. The media suddenly started asking Trump about this again for one reason and one reason only: Trump is soaring in the polls and they’re panicking, looking for a way to save Hillary. So they decided to bring back to life one issue that they were sure they could hang on Trump...

If you want to know more about Michelle Obama, or anything else in this upside-down world—then, do research on your own. Then, tell your friends and relatives. Tell everybody what you learn. And for the sake of a Free World Who is Michelle Obama and what is she to America? On February 11, 2014, Shawna Thomas, NBC “News,” commanded us to: “BowDown.” Some say Michelle Obama will possibly be the next President of the United States, after Bill Clinton’s wife drops out or is dropped out by her Party (das Partie). We are told a “black,” female President would be...

Trump’s image as a party-outsider out to shake up the establishment could push GOP support among blacks to levels not seen since Gerald Ford lost to Jimmy Carter Polls suggest African Americans may bid Barack Obama a stinging farewell by handing Donald Trump the biggest Republican share of the black vote in forty-years. For all the efforts of the Clinton war machine, the media and groups like Black Lives Matter to smear Trump as a racist, the Republican candidate saw his popularity soar among African American voters last week. Of all the things that went wrong for Clinton in the...

A vote for Donald Trump is, in essence a vote for you and your loved ones and is all the electorate really has With almost an entire nation playing doctor trying to diagnose the source of Hillary Clinton’s videoed failing health, Barack Hussein Obama is campaigning from Air Force One. Obama, who once infamously advised, “if they bring a knife to a fight, we bring a gun” is now bringing Air Force One—whose fuel, maintenance and upkeep are paid for from the public purse—to the Hillary campaign. “That’s exactly what Barack Obama said he would do to counter Republican attacks...

The shooting scene: Driveway with car and truck is Doyle's. Truck and trailer are Gonzalez'. On July 23 of 2015, in Citrus County Florida, Robert Doyle and Candelario Gonzalez had a very bad day.  Both made intemperate statements.  Gonzalez had his wife and two child relatives in the car with him.  He followed Doyle and Doyle's wife to their home.  Gonzalez' wife reported to 911 that "My husband wants to go whoop his (expletive),".  Gonzalez can be heard in the background: “He just flipped me off, I’m going to kick him right in his (expletive). … I’m going to...
