Obama: We just need to upgrade ObamaCare, y'know, like an exploding cell phone

ObamaCare is, inarguably, a complete dumpster fire. You couldn't keep your plan, you couldn't keep your doctor, and your rates are skyrocketing. The system that was supposed to "save the average family" thousands is now crushing the average family under a mountain of new regulations and financial obligations. Virtually everyone admits it's a mess, and that includes more and more Democrats who are using the ACA's abject failure to push something even worse. Just look at this years rate increase map, as provided by USA Today: (See Below)

Respect results? In 2002 Hillary Clinton argued Bush was 'selected' - not elected

This morning, Democrats are frothing at the mouth about Trump's refusal to pre-emptively accept the results of a possibly-close election that hasn't happened yet. This, they argue, makes him a dangerous insurrectionist, and unfit for the White House. Some, like New York Magazine's Jonathan Chait, have gone so far as to say Trump is actively working against American Democracy.

Respect Results? Hillary nods along as crowd chants 'You Won' to Al Gore

To this day, Al Gore remains one of the history's least interesting political figures. Best known for pimping climate paranoia and inducing boredom at every turn, Gore wields tedium like Leonidas wields a spear. You may think you can stand up to it, but it almost always wins in the end. ...And yet, he's out there campaigning for Hillary - probably the only candidate who's phony, focus-tested, speeches are even less inspiring.

Second O'Keefe video put spotlight on Dem operatives discussing their strategies to commit voter fraud

"Voter fraud doesn't exist. It's a myth - cooked up by right-wingers - designed to explain why evil Republicans keep losing elections. If you believe it's happening, you must be some sort of neo-Nazi conspiracy theorist. How dare you impugn the glorious, unimpeachable, workings of the United States government.

Hillary Clinton campaign bus LITERALLY crapping all over America

Hillary Clinton is used to crapping on voters, Christians, conservatives, the rule of law, and the Constitution. It's been a hallmark of her long, corrupt, career. Up until now, though, we haven't seen her literally crapping on America. Unfortunately, that has changed.

Howard Dean appears on MSNBC, has literally NO idea what he's talking about

Usually, when we say "Howard Dean doesn't know what he's talking about," we mean "he's wrong." That happens almost every time he opens his mouth, so it's not really worth sharing. Sometimes, though, when we say "Howard Dean doesn't know what he's talking about," we say it because he literally has no freaking idea what he's talking about.

Undercover video busts Dem operatives plotting to incite violence at Trump rallies

Hillary keeps telling us she's innocent victim of a vast right wing conspiracy spearheaded by a monstrous demagogue. Her campaign claims that they're running a clean fight, but it's tough because the opposition is so violent. Trump's rallies, they argue, are Nazi-like affairs where a would-be dictator whips his base into a militant rage.

Utah: Trump, Clinton locked in statistical dead heat. ...With Evan McMullin? Bernie still alive in VT?

For nuts and bolts electoral college wonks, there's a long-simmering theory that's slowly been gaining a bit more credibility. The idea is that conservative independent candidate, Republican Evan McMullin, could take Utah. This, ever-so-slightly, opens the door to the possibility that no candidate would achieve the required 270 electoral votes to win, and the whole thing would be decided by the incoming House of Representatives.

Center for Public Integrity: 96% of journalists' political donations go to Clinton

Yesterday, I had to laugh when I saw the following Tweet from Chris Cillizza. He writes "The Fix" over at the Washington Post. I wasn't alone. Immediately he was inundated with evidence of the media's left-wing leanings and, in particular, its coziness with the Clinton machine. At this point, it isn't really something anyone should have to explain. Their blatant bias has been visible for decades.

Hillary's memory problem: says 'I don't recall' when answering 21 of 25 questions about email server

I don't know about you but, if I was a United States Secretary of State who was running a clandestine email server in an effort to skirt regulations and hide my communications, I'd remember whether or not I told my aides to destroy those emails when it looked like I was in hot water. I mean, that's just me. It's just the sort of thing I'm likely to recall. You might be different. Hillary certainly is. She can't seem to remember anything. It's almost like she has some sort of amnesia regarding what is now obviously an extensive cover-up of her yoga classes and wedding plans.

Gloria Allred involving herself in the Trump accusations - she's STILL a sign that the charges are worthless

Today, we learned that shakedown artist Gloria Allred would be representing another Trump accuser. That got me thinking about a column I wrote years ago, while a certain Mr. Herman Cain was still running for office.
