Debunking the White House excuses for the ObamaCare fiasco

Democrats are certainly not lacking for excuses concerning the disaster that is ObamaCare, which means we have some debunking to do.

Special book offer! Because nine years later, they still think you're stupid

Shortly after I ran for the U.S. Senate in 2004, I wrote a book with a title I've reference often in the years since: They Think You're Stupid. It cut to the heart of why there is such a disconnect between the people of this nation and the political class in Washington D.C. And as I look back at the themes in that book, I realize that while nine years have passed and the specific issues of that time are different than the ones we're discussing now, the basic message of the book is not out of date in any way. If anything, the proposition of the book has been proven by what Democrats have done after taking power in the years since.

ObamaCare offers lots of options . . . all bad

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation has awarded a $1.1 million contract to Families USA to establish a database of Obama "success" stories. Obviously these stories will be used to help President Obama "re-market and rebrand" ObamaCare as he said last week on Fox News.

Three new optics suggest it's game over for Obama

If you find it hard to believe that Barack Obama has fallen this far - thinking back to the time when he talked about "healing the earth" and people took it seriously - you might consider this is what happens when we romanticize politicians instead of keeping a sober view of what they can do or should be expected to do.

Majority suddenly notices Obama is dishonest

The tide is turning. A new CNN poll reveals that a majority of Americans thinks President Obama is untrustworthy and they doubt his management abilities. I’m a proud charter member of the club that thought this all along, as are many of you, but it’s nice to suddenly have so much company?

I don't think we're going to let Obama change the subject

When you're as desperate as Barack Obama is right now - with your approval ratings plunging and people no longer even finding you to be an honest person - you're willing to try almost anything to make people focus their minds on something else. Well, I should qualify: That's what you do if your priority is your own political viability. If you're a real leader, you man up and solve the problem. But we don't have a real leader. We have Barack Obama.

Truth wins: The facts that destroy the allegations made against me in 2011

On September 24, 2011, I won the Florida Republican Presidency 5 Straw Poll by a large margin over the next closest candidate. It was an upset victory and helped propel me to the position of frontrunner in the national polls for the Republican presidential nomination. My messages of common sense solutions and tax code replacement were clearly resonating with the American people.

Letter to my liberal friends: Are you ready to ditch the excuses yet?

Dear liberal friends, Get a grip! You have been lied to, deceived and asked to stay supportive even as your health insurance costs have increased, or are getting ready to increase. It's not a matter of whether they will increase. It's when.

Oh yes, Mark Gongloff (whoever you are), Obama did fake the unemployment rate

There is a process we go through whenever another example of malfeasance by the Obama Administration is exposed. First, conservative media like this site and my radio show tell you about it. Within the next day or two, a sampling of liberal pundits come out with columns headlined like this: "No, Obama did not (fill in the blank)."

One more scandal! Source tells N.Y. Post pre-election unemployment report was faked

A lot of us were curious, and said so at the time, when the September 2012 labor market report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported a sudden drop in the unemployment rate from 8.1 percent to 7.8 percent. This purported improvement was based on the claim that the household survey showed an astonishing one-month increase of 873,000 jobs! This from an economy that was typically producing fewer than 200,000 new jobs a month - and has continued to do so ever since?

Shocker for Democrats: Messing with markets tends to screw things up

The damage ObamaCare is already doing to this nation is a catastrophe of the highest order, and we should certainly not celebrate that. But a destructive fraud that continues undetected is a bigger problem than a destructive fraud that’s finally been exposed. The collapse of ObamaCare is an opportunity for conservatives, if we have the juice to pull it off, to make the nation understand in unmistakable terms why big government interventions in free markets always end in disaster.

3 truths about ObamaCare, and 3 things you can do

ObamaCare is such a disaster on so many levels, it's almost difficult to focus on the basic truths that define this fiasco. But we have to be able to grasp the basics and stay focused on them. Let's cut through all the clutter and get to the things that matter most:

Krista Branch's 'Foreign Land': A moving reminder of the price our veterans have paid

My friend Krista Branch sent me this link this morning, and it seemed so appropriate for Veterans Day.

Even the name 'Affordable Care Act' is a lie

OK! The president said he was sorry that some people lost their health insurance coverage. But he did not say he was sorry that he lied about people being able to keep their plans and doctors.

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.
