Last night and this morning on TV I saw several of the ‘Obamacare’ insurance commercials....
I have never seen them pushed SO hard... AND the thing was CALLED ‘Obamacare’ right up front, whereas usually, it is not named as such in these promotions. It was repeated time and again... gratuitously!
All the other BS language was there though, the coverage ‘you deserve’ and ‘it's FREE’...etc.
I think THAT is desperation!!
That's nice.
REALITY CHECK---Democrats are choking on the progressive B/S der leader's been spreading around.
The Dumbos never recovered from the Obamacare blunder. Lock-stepping Dems are still smarting from marching smartly---heels clicking-- behind der leader on Obamacare---which turned out to be a blunder of Ceausescuian proportions.
Notice-there does not seem to be a whole lot of Dummies supporting the invasion at the border---other than loony Pelosi and the Texas lollipop licker.
That's b/c Dummycrats cannot afford another lock-stepping issue.
<><> NEWS STORY--Local couple received pre-marked voter registration card from "Covered California" (Cali O/Care); an envelope from the state's Obamacare website contained a letter discussing voter registration and a registration card pre-marked with an "x" in the box next to Democratic Party.
<><> Another Obamacare web site reported it "accidentally" registered 4000 latinos.

THIS JUST IN --- Over $5 Billion (and Counting) for screwed-up Obamacare Websites - By Brianna Ehley,The Fiscal Times (and you thought the botched Healthcare.gov rollout had problems?)
Boobamba is prog/stupid and doesn't seem to "get it": taxpayers KNOW that Obamacare is: (1) a HUGE Democrat voter fraud machine----plugging unsuspecting enrollees into Democrat voter rolls, and, (2) A slush fund to consolidate Dummycrat political power.
Obamacare is a vehicle for consolidating Dummycrat power.....w/ a multi-billion dollar slush fund over and above the billions the states are stealing.
The Untraceable $8 Billion ObamaCare PR Budget---truly govt fraud at its finest. Egged on by Pelosi, no one in Congress told Americans about Section 4002---which mandates an $8B untraceable fund to "promote" Obamacare (apparently b/c Boobamba had so little confidence in his signature legislation).
In 2010 Taxpayers are extorted $500 million, in 2011, $750 million, 2012, $1 billion, 2013, $1.25 billion, 2014, $1.5 billion and in 2015 and on, $2 billion........
....the reasons for all those O/Care delays, fixits, exemptions, waivers, extensions, etc, are crystal clear.
Obuma will meet and exceed Lincoln’s most dubious distinction: Become the most hated man of his time.
The media can make a legitimate claim about the mid-terms not being about ObamaCare. To be clear, I think that is one of the issues on the mind of economy voters. The Republican Party, though, ran on Obama’s disapproval and on foreign policy issues from Isis to Obola. And they handled Obola gingerly because so many moderate republicans aren’t too keen on border control.
So, while all the incompetence in every area, including ObamaCare, led to Obama’s low numbers, the republicans steered clear of being specific on anything.
What will now happen is this new republican senate and house will not be able to override Obama’s vetos, so they’ll accomplish ‘fixing’ (1) obamacare, and (2) amnesty. Obama will get the credit the same as Clinton did for Gingrich’s success, and Hillary will ride all that to fame and presidential fortune. (If not Hillary, then some female, because democrats are determined to be the first in electing a minority president (obola) and a female (probably but not necessarily Hillary.)
The meme I’m seeing is that Democrats will lose because their voters aren’t bothering to go to the polls. That’s it - no further explanation about why they won’t go to the polls, or why Republican voters will.
To point to any of many reasons would be to imply that Obama is a failure and that would be racist.
ObamaCare — a law the mainstream media overtly championed before its passage and has been gamely trying to defend ever since.
You are a paid professional writer. As Ricky Ricardo used to say to Lucille Ball, “I want to to ‘splain me one ‘splain.” What exactly do you mean by, “the mainstream media?”IMHO, it makes no sense at all to try to oppose fictional storytelling, even when it has political implications.
Also IMHO, nonfiction books tend to be conservative rather than “liberal,” anyway. So what we are left with, apparently, is journalism.IMHO, the AP particularly but all wire services generally inherently cause journalism to be unified/homogenized. As Adam Smith pointed out:
People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices.If for no other reason than the wire services, journalists have been in intimate conversation, precisely about business, since the Civil War era.Do you mean anything other than “wire service journalism” when you say, “the mainstream media?” And if that is the precise meaning, why don’t we say so???
2012 general election SHOULD have been about ZeroDon’tCare.
