Repeal the damn bill! The death panel that is part of Obamacare.
The board would cap the total amount of money Medicare recipients could get for care. Roe, a practicing doctor before he entered politics, said that means health care decisions will end up being based solely on cost, instead of what the best possible option is for Medicare patients. . . . Congress can recommend different spending amounts, but has to offset any increase in one area with a decrease in another.

An NPR senior exec: “We would be better off in the long-run without federal funding.”
The future of Obamacare: bureaucracy and pulling strings.
Does this seem as crazy to you as it does to me? At the same time the Obama administration is fighting to prevent any new drilling for oil, it is also now considering tapping our strategic oil reserve to get more oil into the market.
If Obamacare was so great, why have the number of waivers the administration has issued to the law now climbed to more than 1,000?
Does this make you feel safer? The TSA spent millions developing the ability to do secret body scans of pedestrians as they entered train stations, bus depots or major events. Key quote:
EPIC lawyer Ginger McCall says the project is disturbing nonetheless because it shows the department “obviously believed that this level of surveillance is acceptable when in fact it is not at all acceptable.”

Freedom of speech alert: Democrat state lawmakers in Illinois want to ban photography at accident sites.

FOIA documents show that the TSA has plans to expand its jurisdiction to searching random people on city streets. More here.

Repeal Obamacare already! And for fifty straight weeks, the majority in every poll has agreed.
O joy. The EPA today issued revised, scaled back regulations for commercial-grade boilers and incinerators.

Right on! House today approved several amendments to block significant areas of funding for Obamacare.
The law is for everyone: A federal judge has lowered the boom on the Obama administration over its refusal to issue permits for drilling oil in the Gulf of Mexico. Key quote:
In issuing the directive to the government, Feldman, who sits on the District Court for the Eastern District of Louisian, noted that “it is undisputed that before the Deepwater Horizon disaster, permits were processed, on average, in two weeks’ time. In stark contrast, the five permits at issue have been pending from four to some nine months.”
Homeland security strikes again! Two TSA agents were busted today at JFK for stealing $160,000 from checked bags.

“With demand for power at record levels because of the freezing weather, there have been days when the contribution of our forests of wind turbines has been precisely nothing,” wrote Richard Littlejohn in the Daily Mail Dec. 27. “It gets better,” Mr. Littlejohn continued. “As the temperature has plummeted, the turbines have had to be heated to prevent them from seizing up. Consequently, they have been consuming more electricity than they generate.”
Now its Wall Street regulators and their Democratic friends in Congress who are squealing over the Republican budget proposals.
