Obamacare is working so well in New Jersey almost no doctors are willing to accept it

Five years since it was shoved down our throats in the dark of night, and despite all the debacles encountered along the way, Obamacare's supporters continue to insist it's "working." Their definition of "working" must be different from mine. Because even if it might have succeeded in forcing people to buy health insurance, those people can't find a doctor who'll take it.

Can you guess why?

Obamacare is long on promises, and short on payments.

New Jersey's Medicaid physician reimbursement rates — among the lowest in the country despite the state's high cost of living — have long suppressed doctor participation in the program known as NJ FamilyCare.

Are you surprised by that? Of course you aren't.

Obamabots believe doctors should work for free.

Notice how they don't hold themselves to the same standard.

A report by NJ Advance Media in February detailed the problems people on Medicaid have finding a doctor who will see them. Making the situation even more challenging to patients, an investigation of the insurance company lists of participating providers revealed those lists to be inaccurate or out-of-date.

Bad info from the Obamacare website? Say it ain't so!

Of course it's so. The whole thing is a train wreck.

It's the illusion of health care.

The doctor won't see you now. So, don't get sick.

Dear Leader snubs NATO Chief while cozying up to Iran

NATO? That's so colonialist man.

So it's really no surprise when The Great And Powerful Obama chooses to snub his NATO counterpart.

Send the new guy! There's golf to be played, and dictators to be coddled.

Perhaps Mr. Stoltenberg should try wallowing in a bathtub full of Fruit Loops. That seems to get Obama's attention…

A Russian-backed attack on the Falklands is in effect a proxy attack on NATO. You'd think our president would be worried about that.

Nah. He's too busy cozying up to Iran.

Hey, let's help Iran conquer Iraq! What could go wrong?

The sight of American jets effectively acting as an air force for Iranian regional interests will further alarm critics at home and in the Arab Sunni world already looking nervously at a possible rapprochement between the two old foes after a possible deal on Tehran's nuclear programme.

Gee, ya think?

Will our pilots be required to scream "Death To America!" too?

"Over the weekend, Ayatollah Khomeini gave a speech," Acosta said. "And during that speech, there were people in the crowd chanting 'Death to America' and the Ayatollah responded back to them according to various translations, Of course, 'Death to America.' Do those comments give this White House any pause about moving forward with a nuclear deal with that country?"

Nah. "Death To America" is Farsi for "Hope and Change."

Every Obamabot knows that.

Today's Obamacare trainwreck update: The IRS taketh, small business still getting hosed

Can you believe it's been 5 long years since Obamacare went into effect?

Can you believe there are still deluded people out there who like Obamacare?

Not for long. The pain, it is coming.

Half of the households that received subsidies to help pay health insurance premiums last year under the Affordable Care Act will probably have to repay some of that money to the federal government, according to a new analysis by the Kaiser Family Foundation.

Sorry suckers!

Taxpayers generally receive subsidies in advance, with the amount based on their projected household income for the year the insurance policy will be in effect. But they must then reconcile the estimate with their actual income when filing federal taxes. Kaiser estimated that subsidy recipients who underestimated their incomes will owe $794 on average.

There goes your refund. Please make your check payable to Obama For America Ready For Hillary and don't forget to mail it in by April 15th.

Speaking of pain, small business is bearing the brunt of Obamacare's onerous record-keeping requirements.

That's $15,000 the business can't spend on raises, or expansion, or supplies. It's wasted, a lost opportunity really, dragging our economy down.

But don't take my word for it. Listen to Senate Democrats.

Wait, I thought Obamacare was working swimmingly and all the kinks were worked out! How can these senators say it causes "higher premiums, less flexibility, and new barriers to coverage?"

Because the small group marketplace (aka SHOP) still isn't built, that's why. It's 2 years behind schedule. And I'll know you'll find this hard to believe, but it's actually more of a trainwreck than the original Obamacare web site.

As a guy who's already stuck in the hell that is Obamacare's small business marketplace, let me tell you, it's worse than you can imagine. Choices? Yeah, we have "choices." Between Expensive, Ridiculously Expensive, and Donald Trump Couldn't Afford This Plan. We liked our insurance. We didn't get to keep our insurance. And our employees are not happy. Not one bit.

Just wait until thousands and thousands more hapless schmucks are subjected to the same fate. No wonder these senators are worried, people who are pissed off at Obamacare might not vote for HillBillary. They might even decide to put that Ted Cruz feller into the White House. And then where would progressivism be?

Obamacare, it's so great they have to force you to buy it, and then they have to keep postponing the really scary parts so they can retain their hold on power. No wonder it's so popular!

Twitter is joining the evil autoplay video ad cult

Twitter is already inserting unsolicited, er "promoted" content into our timelines. Now they're gonna eat even more of our monthly mobile bandwidth with autoplay video ads.

Because what we all want is spurts of useless cruft annoying us at inopportune times, right?

Autoplay Video Must Die.

Really.

I don't understand the point of companies who set out to annoy their potential customers. And that's what autoplay is, annoying. It breaks my train of thought, sending me scrambling to find the mute or stop button, while cursing your company's miserable existance the entire time.

So listen up Madison Avenue. Write this down, because it's important.

An autoplay video ad for your product makes me hate you with the white-hot passion of 1,000 suns. And it makes me hate your product, too.

I guarantee I will be 100% dead-set against purchasing any product that annoys me with an autoplay video ad.

And I assure you, I'm not alone.

BTW, I also shun websites (Hi ABCnews, I'm looking at you) who autoplay content.

Because Autoplay Is Evil. Always. And forever.

Just Stop it. Now.

Lardass Michelle Obama is demanding to weigh your toddlers in daycare

Who the hell died and put Moochelle in charge of our kid's snack time?

Well, as the saying goes, she's Large And In Charge. And if your kid is too fat, she wants to know.

Privacy? Yeah, you don't have that.

Choices? You don't have those either.

But, nagging? For sure. Because your kid will eat what Moochelle tells her to eat. And nothing else.

I don't remember seeing this sociopathic control freak on my election ballot. How about you? The fact that she is monitoring our children, and then creating regulations governing what we feed them? Well, that's how I spell FASCISM.

If she wants to micromanage her own kids' meals? Not my concern.

And if people want to voluntarily submit to her tyranny? Well, there's apparently no law against stupidity.

But I'll be damned if I let an unelected busybody dictate what my daughter is allowed to eat.

Michelle Obama needs to go back to tending her White House vegetable garden.

Oh, excuse me, Michelle Obama needs to go back to asking Juan and Miguel and Esmerelda to tend her White House vegetable garden. And it might be nice if she forced her own little princesses to eat the crap she's foisting on our kids.

Fat chance of that. Do as Her Majesty says, not as she does. And of course she gets to eat cake.

Mandatory voting? An idea so dumb only Obama could propose it

You know where they have Mandatory Voting? Cuba. Iran. The old Soviet Union.

Obama's kind of places, for sure. Because the party in power always "wins," with 99.9% of the "vote."

So it comes as no surprise he's floating the same compulsion here.

How much easier can it be? You register. You show up. You vote.

Just ask Australia, where citizens have no choice but to vote, the president said.

I did not know that Australia was fascist. You learn something new every day. Remind me not to move there.

"If everybody voted, then it would completely change the political map in this country," Obama said, calling it "potentially transformative." Not only that, Obama said, but universal voting would "counteract money more than anything."

Because we need more uninformed nincompoops deciding the outcome of what'll essentially devolve into a beauty contest.

Freedom means the right to abstain from action, including voting. We don't have a "none of the above" option on our ballots. So boycotting the polls on election day is the next best thing. You'd think a Constitutional Scholar would grasp that concept.

You'd be wrong. The only thing Obama wants to do with the constitution is shred it.

But he's got that "change the political map" thing right. So you gotta give him points for chutzpah. Dragging all those apathetic slackers out of mom's basement and welfare queens out of their nail salons on election day will undoubtedly serve the interests of the Party of Government, ie the Democrats. People who work for a living already vote. It's consumers of government who sit on the sidelines, content to wallow in their government cheese.

They just sort of assume the gravy train will roll on unabated. It must've really burned President Jarrett's shorts when that assumption didn't work out last November.

Not to mention that his "counteract money" line is mendaciously disingenuous coming from a guy who raised and spent more than a billion dollars on each of two presidential campaigns, mainly from untraceable foreign sources.

By the by, who spends the most on our elections? Liberal interest groups funded by the likes of George Soros and Tom Steyer. I'll bet Dear Leader "forgot" to mention that. And of course the public employee unions, who can't spell Republican let alone vote for one.

Mandatory voting? It's an idea so dumb, so antithetical to the Founding Fathers' notions of Liberty and personal responsibility, that only a power-mad narcissistic megalomaniac could embrace it.

Which of course means that Maxine Waters or Bernie Sanders has already put forth the requisite constitutional amendment requiring it.

Obama's EPA is coming for your barbecue grill

First they "suggested" that we go vegan to Save The Planet.

Now Obama's storm troopers are going to regulate our backyard barbecues using the Clean Air Act.

Get ready for the denials. If you like your barbecue, you can keep your barbecue.. Like we're gonna fall for that one again, right?

The EPA has already effectively outlawed wood burning stoves.

And we all know what they've done to destroy the coal industry in this country.

So using the same rules to regulate barbecues like mine is the logical next step.

Here's their first proposal:

The school is proposing two fixes to reduce emissions from barbecues. First, they want to cut back on grease flare-ups. The idea: "A slotted and corrugated tray is inserted immediately prior to meat flipping, and removed immediately after. This short contact time prevents the tray from over-heating and volatilizing the collected grease. This collected grease will then drip off into a collection tray and can be used at the pit master's discretion."

But it's the second phase that really shows how nuts these EPA clowns are:

But, total capture isn't "practical," so a filter and fan are proposed for installation. "The secondary air filtration system is composed of a single pipe duct system which contains a specialized metal filter, a metal fan blade, a drive shaft, and an accompanying power system with either a motorized or manual method. This system can be powered by either an exterior electric motor with a chain-driven drive shaft, directly spinning the fan blade, or a hand-powered crank," said the project write-up.

Good freaking grief!

Can you imagine anything so ridiculous? A smokestack and soot scrubbers encasing your backyard grill?

Yeah, that won't be expensive! Or cumbersome. Not to mention, batshit insane.

Typical EPA-approved smokestack scrubber setup. Substitute "your grill" for "wet scrubber" and you'll get an idea of where they're going with this.

Can you imagine cooking ribs inside that contraption?

The Obamunists have got to be stopped. Now. Before they mess with our grilled meat.

Annals of the 47%: Federal agencies made $125 billion in improper payments last year

Obama's minions aren't very good stewards of the public's money.

In fact, they're so bad, they set a new record for improper payments handouts.

The "problem" is in the eye of the beholder Senator.

And in the eye of President Jarrett, everything is going according to plan.

Because every single one of those $125 billion dollars went toward buying votes for Democrats. What could be more important than that?

Homeland Security?

Puh-lease.

If the Obamabots were interested in Homeland Security they'd close the borders and keep Iran and Hezbollah on the terrorist watch list.

Instead they're focused on one thing. Putting as many Americans as possible on the dole. Consumers of government vote for the party of government. And Democrats are masters at promising Free Stuff.

Just wait, the next two years of "improper payments" will make $125 billion look like a drop in the bucket. They're gonna pull out all the stops to keep the White House firmly under their jackboots, which means levels of wealth transfer that would make Robin Hood blush.

Tax "refunds" to illegal aliens who never paid a dime of taxes in their lives.

Obamacare subsidies to anybody with a pulse. And to the recently departed, especially if Social Security "forgot" to count them as dead.

College loan "forgiveness."

More mortgage writedown shenanigans from the FHA too.

No grant is too small. No boondoggle too shameful. Federal largess will flow where votes are needed most, while their propagandists in the press fan the flames of racial and class discord. It's the Progressives' Battle Of The Bulge, their last-ditch effort to cement socialism as the successor to the great American republic.

And when we really do run out of other people's money? Hey, that's Hillary's problem.

NJ Catholic high school sacks a teacher for posting Catholic doctrine on Facebook

It is a tenet of the Catholic faith that homosexuality is instrinsically disordered.

It is also a tenet of the Catholic faith that same-sex "marriage" is a mirage.

Alas, at Immaculata High School in Somerville, New Jersey, you can be Catholic and believe these truths, but you can't post them on Facebook. Or mention them in a classroom.

Patricia Jannuzzi was sacked for affirming Catholic doctrine. Her catholic (yes, small c) employer caved to the homofascists. Note their characterization of her statements — "anti-gay" — instead of what they really are, Catholic teaching.

Why? Because noted theologian Susan Sarandon objected! Oh, and some homosexual bozo who had a bit part in a Real Housewives episode got his knickers in a twist too. The part where his tweet libels Rick Santorum? Yeah, that's tolerance! dontcha know.

Because only Catholics are haters. Homosexuals are the epitome of reason and understanding. Their precious feelings must be assuaged, always.

Or they'll call you names.

Stacy McCain calls out the hypocritical dichotomy.

Because, apparently, disapproval of homosexual urges is tantamount to imposing a Death Sentence. I'm told that kids who believe they are gay are prone to commit suicide if they aren't immediately celebrated with parades, balloons, confetti, and abject deference to the Inherent Moral Authority of their newfound sexual deviancy. Their feelings trump everything. Including reason.

Well, Bollocks!

Indeed.

The totalitarian Gay Mafia has punished Patricia Jannuzzi.

But, I suspect they aren't done with her yet.

It's not sufficient for her to lose her current job. She has to become unemployable. Her livelihood must be defenestrated. It's the Godfather paradigm: make an example of one, and the rest will fall in line.

I ask you. What teacher at Immaculata will dare defend Catholic doctrine tomorrow?

And as Immaculata goes, so goes the Diocese of Metuchen. Bishop Bootkoski, please call Archbishop Cordileone. Pray together, so that we, your Catholic faithful, do not hang separately.

The comments at the original news article sadden me. The hatred and vitriol directed at Patricia Jannuzzi, and at Catholics in general, is staggering.

But it's par for the course in Homosexualville, where the least tolerant and most judgmental people you'll ever meet conspire to stamp out any vestiges of disagreement with their chosen lifestyle. They constantly seek affirmation of their debauchery, even as their consciences nag them from behind the brick wall they've erected to compartmentalize their sins. Because even the tiniest spark of righteousness shakes the very foundation of their licentiousness. Such is the fragility of their zeitgeist, censure is anathema.

Shame on Immaculata High School for abandoning Catholic doctrine, and for throwing one of their own into the lion's den.

There are Christians in Iraq and Africa who refuse to renounce their faith even as they face certain death. Yet the administration at Immaculata cowers in fear at the mere thought of "anti-gay" publicity, as if their eternal souls would be tarnished by the approbrium of fornicating sodomites.

Shame on them, I say again. Now is not the time to go weak.

Homosexuality is wrong. It is contrary to nature, and to nature's God.

Pray for the presecutors of Patricia Jannuzzi. Pray that their hearts may be opened, and that their sins might be forgiven. Pray for strength to resist the hordes of secularization. Pray that Almighty God has mercy on us all.

When it comes to private email accounts, Jersey City is Hillary's kind of town

Hillary Clinton is not alone among Democrats. In Jersey City, NJ, everybody uses a private email account. The government servers are lonely, and empty.

Bullshit.

I'm 57 years old.

I can manage 5 different email accounts.

And yes, they're all on my BlackBerry.

Sorry Jimbo, you're a putz.

Other officials who use private email accounts include Bob Sommer, who last week became a volunteer Fulop adviser after nearly two years on the city payroll using his Gmail account almost exclusively; Jersey City spokeswoman Jennifer Morrill, who switches between her city and personal Gmail accounts; Jersey City Councilwoman Candice Osborne; Hudson County spokesman James Kennelly, who uses personal and county accounts; Freeholder Bill O'Dea, who uses Yahoo; and Bayonne spokesman Joe Ryan, who uses Hotmail. Fulop switches between his Gmail and city accounts.

What are they hiding?

Don't count on finding out.

And you know what?

I'm really pissed off.

I have to comply with every arcane requirement of Sarbanes / Oxley, including email retention and archiving. But, apparently, Hillary Clinton doesn't.

In what universe is that right?

Because I'm pretty sure that her job was more important than mine.

I never made a life or death decision.

Sean Smith, Glen Doherty, Tyrone Woods, and Chris Stevens were unavailable for comment.

And Steve Fulop wants to be governor? When he, and his minions, are concealing their communications from the Freedom of Information Act?

What's he got to hide? He's supposed to be Mr. Squeaky Clean.

Yeah, if you believe that, I've got a bridge in Brooklyn you can have, cheap.

The only reason to maintain a secret email account is to avoid scrutiny.

If you're going to cheat on your wife, you don't use your work email to arrange trysts with your mistress.

And if you're going to screw the taxpayers, you don't use a government email account to talk about it.

Hillary Clinton is dirty. Her foundation took money from some of the worst human rights abusers on the planet. And she's complicit in their misogny. She's obviously got something to hide from her adoring femininut friends.

Steven Fulop is hiding something too.

Democrats always have something to hide.

What amazes me is the fact that the Palace Guard media, who are 110% in the tank for 0bama, are out in front of these email scandals. That can mean only one thing. They're hoping Elizabeth "Fauxcahontas" Warren takes Hillary's place. And, closer to home, "the other Steve" (Sweeney) lands in Drumthwacket.

Alas, the silent majority might, and I emphasize might, this one time wake up and smell the bullshit. Because the stench is overpowering.

You can vote for Democrats and their secret email accounts.

Or, you can wake up and get a clue.

NJ Supreme Court overrides Gov. Christie, legislates "affordable housing" from the bench

The Grand Poobahs of New Jersey's state supreme court fancy themselves as agents of Social Justice — separation of powers be damned! — and today they once again have deigned to promulgate legislation from the bench, overriding both the governor and our state legislature in the process.

Because They Are The Law.

This time it's their old bugaboo "Affordable Housing." Otherwise known as "Every Town Gets A Slum." The fomenters of class envy object to the idea that some towns have nicer houses than other towns. So they sued the "rich" towns, arguing that every person is entitled to live wherever he or she wants, regardless of their income or ability to pay for said residence. Because hey, if a bunch of folks worked hard all their lives and bought fancy houses in Short Hills or Alpine or Rumson, it's not fair that poor people aren't given similar houses merely because they want them too.

A few lawfare iterations ago the court decreed that the state legislature must create an agency, the Council On Affordable Housing, tasked with devising regulations which would force every town to construct its "fair share" of low-income housing. Towns naturally fought this at every turn, and they gained an ally in Governor Chris Christie. He effectively disbanded COAH, which angered the Social Justice Warriors, and they went back to court.

Today the SJWs found favor with our state supreme court, who hath decreed that they are now COAH. Henceforth, the court will issue Affordable Housing regulations, while Chris Christie and the peoples' elected representatives can go to Hell.

Did you catch the hubris there? "… after Gov. Chris Christie's administration repeatedly failed to obey an order …". An order! They ordered the governor to bend to their will. And he said "no." Because in a constitutional republic, a governor is equal to the judiciary.

Well golly folks, we can't have that! The judiciary must reign supreme! They don't call themselves the supreme court for nothing! They. Will. Be. Obeyed.

And so, instead of expecting people to work hard to get ahead, our betters in the judiciary will tell those of us who busted our butts, "sorry guys, but everybody is entitled to the same thing you have." And of course, they'll get it for "free." I'll let you guess who pays for that.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Welcome to the New and Improved Declaration of Dependence:

We hold these shibboleths to be universal, that all beings are equal, that they are guaranteed by their Government to have equality in all things, that among these are Free Stuff, Respect for their Precious Feelings, and the Attainment of Happiness.

Or, as I learned it:

From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.

"Affordable Housing" is the epitome of communist agitprop. When my grandfather came here from Poland he lived in a cold-water flat Down Neck with a dozen other guys. They all worked. They didn't complain. They saved their pennies. They rode the bus. Then one day my grandfather bought himself a little house in North Arlington. Nothing fancy, but it was his. He married. Sired 8 kids. Raised 'em right. Taught 'em to work hard. And that ethic was bred into me, my siblings, and all my cousins.

No one in my family ever expected the government to hand him a free house.

The very concept, to coin a phrase, doesn't compute. In fact, it's anathema to everything we grew up believing in.

But wait, the argument goes, people need to live near their jobs!

Really?

Tell that to the guy who walks 21 miles to work. Each way. Every day.

Oh, right, you can't. Because the entitlement mentality forced him to go into hiding.

Think about that.

There are people, Obama voters all I'm sure, who would take from this man what he worked for. They deserve it. Or something.

Equality of Outcome is their birthright dontcha know.

Except that one day, and this is something the panjandrums of our "supreme" court have yet to learn, sooner or later they're gonna run out of Other Peoples' Houses.

When a 7-year-old complains to Michelle Obama about his crappy school lunch, she puts him in his place

This kid's got balls. He doesn't like Michelle Obama's new school lunches. And even though he's only 7 years old, he decided to tell her just how he feels.

Whole wheat tacos taste like cardboard. Whole wheat pizza is an abomination.

Her Imperial Majesty's response? Eat what I tell you to eat, peasant!

Notice how she didn't take him up on the lunch offer. She's not gonna eat that shit. Her kids don't eat that shit either. They eat gourmet lunches, because the Obama's are better than you Trip.

Trip's mom, Katie, said he "was so proud and excited that [Obama] took the time to write him back" and "now he knows the reasons for the change." Whether he understands the reasons or not, Trip still wants his old tacos and pizza back.

It doesn't matter what you want Trip.

It only matters that you do what's good for the collective.

So be a good little automaton and do as they say.

And while you're at it, you'd better knock off that whole thinking for yourself stuff too young man.

Your name is now on a list. You'll be watched. No more agitating for what you think is right. The government will tell you what's "right." They're smarter than you. More important too. Do as you're told and there won't be any trouble.

You don't want to get in trouble, do you Trip? Do you want your mom and dad to have to explain to a man from the government why you won't eat your vegetables? The man from the government won't be happy about that Trip. He might decide to take you away from such bad parents, seeing as how they didn't teach you to believe in everything your president and his queen say. Then the government will raise you right, Trip. Teach you respect for your betters.

Or else.

Bob Menendez, an outspoken critic of Obama's Iran policy, will face federal corruption charges

I'm sure the timing of this announcement is purely coincidental.

I am no fan of Bob Menendez. But this thing stinks. He's been vocal and persuasive in his opposition to Dear Leader's policies on Cuba and Iran. And this "investigation" has been percolating for six years.

So why now?

"Will no one rid me of this turbulent senator?", cried President Valerie Jarrett. And lo, Eric Holder unleashed the hounds.

I got a buck that says if Bob pipes down and acts like a good boy the whole thing will go away. That's how the Obama White House operates. They punish their enemies, and they reward their friends.

Bob Menendez didn't get with their program. So now he's gonna get an orange jumpsuit.

Netflix: Hey, we didn't want Net Neutrality to apply to us, just all those other guys

Sorry Net Neutrality knuckleheads, don't say we didn't warn you. But now it's too late to be complaining about how when the jackbooted thugs of the FCC take aim at the internet they're gonna squash your hopes and dreams too.

Exhibit A: Netflix! They got what they wanted, except they've decided they didn't really want what they got.

Translation? We didn't expect the FCC to regulate us, just all those other guys.

Yeah, tough noogies numbnuts. The Title II ship has sailed, thanks in no small part to you and your company's mendacity. You asked for it, you got it. Now live with the consequences.

Speaking of "consequences," here's Exhibit B: 5G wireless services were specifically designed to prioritize different classes of data. Now, of course, such a rollout runs smack-dab into the Net Neutrality mavens' silly "no fast lanes" mantra.

Gee, a law written in 1934 isn't compatible with the technology of 2015. Who'da thunk it! And when it turns out that government is incapable of accommodating nuance, yeah that's not exactly a News Flash either. Except, maybe, to the starry-eyed utopians who put their faith in bureaucracy instead of the free market.

Now there is a federal agency involved, and it has a bunch of power that it didn't before. Good luck to Mr. Ewaldsson. Good luck to Netflix. Good luck to Google. Good luck to the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Good luck to the Progressive Policy Institute. Good luck to the Internet Society. You made your bed. Now lie in it.

Here's where I remind you turkeys of Ronald Reagan's wisdom — "The nine most terrifying words in the English language are 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'"

Welcome to the party boys.

Time for torches and pitchforks: Dictator Obama will impose new taxes via Executive Order

This president really does believe he's our king. That we must bow before him. That he can impose his will upon us by fiat. The Constitution? That's so old, who cares about it anymore? Certainly not anyone in his administration!

He's got a pen and a phone, and he's going to use them to unilaterally raise taxes.

Tyranny. Pure, unadulterated tyranny.

Remember the concept of "no taxation without representation?" Yeah, me neither.

The Founding Fathers declared independence over less. The list of abuses and usurpations imposed by this president is unparalled in history.

And he grows bolder with each passing day.

Consider that just last week he moved to ban AR-15 ammo, the most common bullet sold in the United States.

And yesterday he announced a plan to Federalize every local police department in the country.

The people disarmed. The police answerable only to the tyrant. The media, complicit. The Congress, paralyzed. The military, defanged.

He's preparing for something big. And if We The People allow him to succeed, if we do not stand up, united in opposition to his tyranny, Freedom and Liberty will die. Forever.

Wolverines!

Obama threatened to shoot down IAF Iran strike, because he wants Iran to get The Bomb

The president who bombs everybody vetoed an Israeli first strike against Iran's nuclear weapons facilities. Not only that, he threatened to shoot down IAF planes if they tried.

No wonder Dear Leader doesn't want Netanyahu to speak before Congress! Suppose the Prime Minister gets up there on Tuesday and confirms this report? Suppose he says, yes, Barack Obama is actively working to ensure that Iran gets The Bomb?

Because, face it, if Obama was in fact helping Iran to develop a nuclear weapon, what exactly would he be doing differently?

Actually there are reports saying exactly that.

The deal that the United States and the P5+1 powers are working towards would enable Iran to produce nuclear weapons only a few years after the signing of the accords, if Iran demonstrates "good behavior" during the years the agreement is in effect, Israel's NRG reported on Monday citing The Associated Press. The report cites an official involved in the talks between the Western powers and Iran who leaked details of the agreement emerging between the two sides.

Does this scare the living shit out of you?

Because I'm freaking out. Iran has told the world exactly what they'll do with an atomic bomb.

Maybe Obama is OK with smoking craters where Haifa and Tel Aviv used to be, but anyone who's sane would be recoiling in horror.

Here's what I hope.

I hope Israel launches that strike. Soon. They know how.

And I hope our pilots and air group commanders will stand down and refuse to attack an ally of freedom. Because an order from Obama Valerie Jarrett to attack Israel is so far beyond the pale that it must be seen for what it really is. Treason.
