Maybe you don't know anything about cancer, Mr. President; I do

You might have heard yesterday that the Obama White House, for which apparently no tactic is too low, went after a cancer patient who had the nerve to write in the Wall Street Journal about what had happened to her excellent health insurance coverage - directly and specifically because of ObamaCare.

Anticipating the next ObamaCare problems that will be someone else's fault

Rob's piece yesterday provided a look - both amusing and infuriating - at how the New York Times is serving as one of the last holdouts in trying to cover for the Obama Administration on the ObamaCare fiasco. Dan's piece this morning demonstrates that the Times is in an increasingly lonely space, as even reliably liberal CBS News no longer has a strong enough stomach to swallow and spew the lies, and is actually doing some fine reporting about the incompetence, arrogance and dishonesty that got us where we are today.

Big picture: Every indicator says there's little hope until Democrats are shown the door

The state of our nation under President Obama and his administration is not a pretty picture of prosperity, and I am not the least bit optimistic that things are going to get better. All one has to do is honestly examine the impact of policies, legislation, regulations, inept federal governance, cover-ups and unresolved scandals we have seen so far during this administration.

IRS horror stories from our callers for Halloween

We were flooded with calls on Halloween when we invited callers to share their IRS horror stories with us and the listeners. These stories all centered on the experiences people had had during an IRS audit.

Obama approval down to 42 percent; let us count the reasons

I've been talking all week about a quote from Thomas Jefferson, who said the good sense of the people will always be found to be the best army. They may be led astray for a moment, but will soon correct themselves.

Grace-Marie Turner's Top 10 coming ObamaCare disasters

Our friend Grace-Marie Turner, who has appeared on my show in the past to explain all that is wrong with ObamaCare, has an excellent piece in National Review today that highlights the Top 10 disasters that are on their way as a result of ObamaCare.

Today, we rebuke bad news: Our government may be a mess, but we are a nation of heroes

My pastor spelled it out yesterday morning during his sermon at Antioch Baptist Church in Atlanta. All we hear about these days is bad news. And it's true. Bad news about scandals. Bad news about health care policy. Bad news about the economy. Especially if you focus on news about the government, there's just about no escaping the negative.

ObamaCare doesn’t work because you can’t pass a law against reality

I think it’s more than a little amusing that official Washington is so surprised about the problems with ObamaCare. Some of us saw them coming all along. The soaring premiums. The cancellations of millions of policies people were perfectly happy with. The reduction of worker hours because of the mandates in the law. This was all predictable because actions have consequences, and if you understand how things work, you can often foresee the consequence

Meet the 13 Senate Democrats who supported ObamaCare, and are up for re-election in 2014

Remember way back in the distant past - like, two weeks ago - when every Democrat on Capitol Hill was united in the determination that ObamaCare must not be changed, not be delayed, not be modified in any way, because to do so would be a dirty, nasty, right-wing Republican trick?

More racist garbage from Alan Grayson

If you're not familiar with Congressman Alan Grayson of Florida, it might be that you don't pay attention to people who run their mouths a lot but don't contribute anything of substance. So let me introduce you to this fine representative of the Democrat Party, particularly because his latest utterance yesterday demonstrated beyond any question that he can fairly be labeled a racist.

Even with my early-‘70s computer science degree, I can see the problems with HealthCare.gov

I’m sure I am not anyone’s idea of an IT expert today – my degree in computer science from the early 1970s notwithstanding. But there are some things about computer programming that, at least in a general sense, a guy like me still understands. And that’s why, when I hear about the nature of HealthCare.gov’s problems and the approach the administration is taking to fixing them, I recognize it could be a very long time before this thing is working correctly – if it ever does.

Don’t ignore the collateral damage ObamaCare is causing

There's been so much media attention on the government shutdown and the technical "glitches" with healthcare.gov, that there has been only anecdotal coverage of the real pain caused by the determined implementation of ObamaCare on real people and businesses.

Democrats ‘win’ the shutdown showdown . . . but what do you win?

I guess it’s official that the Democrats “won” the government shutdown, because the media and the Beltway crowd keep telling us that. I’m not sure what their prize is, and I don’t really care, because I’m not interested in the usual thinking that views everything that ever happens in terms of political winners and losers.

My prediction: ‘Drop dead’ financial crisis

In this week's so called fiscal deal, the Republicans got nothing new and the Democrats got everything that they wanted. That's why I believe we are headed for another crisis in a couple of months. And what's more, I believe that the Democrats are going to play this game all the way up to the 2014 elections. Watch:

Americans say they want incumbents out; OK, so why do you keep sending them back?

A Pew Research Survey indicates that 74 percent of registered voters say most members of Congress should not be re-elected in 2014. That is certainly consistent with surveys that show the approval rating of Congress to be around 5 percent, and it’s hard to argue with.

Democrats know their policies are hurting people . . . they just don’t care

Consider the evidence! When Vincent Gray, the Democrat mayor of Washington, D.C., appealed to Senator Harry Reid to end the shutdown because of the collateral impact it is having on people in the District of Columbia, Reid told Gray, "I'm on your side, don't screw it up."

Democrats don’t care about the people

Harry Reid and the democrats don't care about the people, they don't want to negotiate, and they don't care about the unintended consequences of this shutdown. Watch:

Obama: What do you mean? ObamaCare has nothing to do with worker hours getting cut!

Obama may have learned a few things from his frenemy Bill Clinton after all. Clinton was a strong believer in the strategy that, when someone keeps confronting you with a fact it is not in your interests to admit . . . Deny, deny, deny!

Restaurant owner ordered to close because of shutdown: I do not think so

Glenn Helseth operates the Carrot Tree Kitchen in Yorktown, Virginia. Because the restaurant is located on federal land - and operates out of a building leased from the federal government - those running the Obama Shutdown Show have told Helseth he needs to close his restaurant for the duration of the people. That would throw him and his 20 employees into unemployment and threaten the viability of the restaurant.

ObamaCare fiasco: Government-run health insurance working about as well as expected

What exactly did you think government-run health insurance was going to be like?
