Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has ignored congressional inquiries about an expensive program, which the Government Accountability Office recommended she cancel, that hides Obamacare cuts to Medicare Advantage until after the presidential election. HHS has spent $8.3 billion on a demonstration project that, in theory, “test[s] whether a tiered bonus structure would produce better results” by providing bonuses to insurance companies. “The G.A.O. said the project ‘dwarfs all other Medicare demonstrations’ in its impact on the budget, but is so poorly designed that researchers could not tell whether the bonus payments

Alec Baldwin has a stern warning for the country. "America will never be great again under a Romney administration," the volatile actor sonorously intoned in a recent, rambling Huffington Post screed. If Mitt Romney is elected, Baldwin tells us, only "rich people" will find the country great. "Everyone else will be asked to dial down their [sic] expectations of what it means to be an American, again," he warns. It is clear that Baldwin isn't paying attention to his fellow Americans because as a nation we are already lowering our expectations for the future.

A large majority of black Americans who head to the polls in November will vote for President Obama, but the question is whether they will turn out in the numbers he needs given the election lacks the symbolism of the 2008 contest. Obama, who has rarely spoken of race since his election, has faced criticisms that he failed to tackle black unemployment, which was 14.1 percent in August, compared with 8.1 percent overall. His opponent, GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney, formed a Black Leadership Council this month to try to connect with black voters on economic issues.

It has been said that a democratic republic such as ours is a do-it-yourself enterprise. People change the course of this country through conversation, debate and, eventually, consensus. As the 2012 elections near, these debates, particularly the upcoming presidential and vice presidential debates, take center stage. In light of what has been a long and tumultuous political season, here are my strongest arguments for Mitt Romney, Rep. Paul Ryan, and fellow conservatives to explain to their fellow Americans why President Barack Obama does not deserve a second term.

A New Jersey lawmaker has proposed a right-to-die law for that state's terminally ill people which, if passed, would make the state the third in the nation after Oregon and Washington to allow those with deadly diseases the chance to end their own suffering. The Death With Dignity Act would allow a "qualified patient to self-administer medication to end life in a humane and dignified manner," said the bill, introduced this week by Democratic Assemblyman John Burzichelli (D-Gloucester). But as the Star-Ledger noted, it would not be easy to qualify to receive life-ending drugs.

Retiring Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) said he once tried a pot-infused brownie — and it made him sleepy. Frank is an advocate of legalizing and taxing marijuana, but he said Wednesday night that he does not regularly use the illegal drug. "No, I don't," Frank told CNN when asked if he smoked marijuana. “I smoke a cigar or two a day. I did have a brownie once. It made me sleepy.” Frank went on to say that he thought the drug should be legalized as an issue of fairness, pointing out the effects

Put together in response to the film "Innocence of Muslims," rally organizer Tarek Baydoun said, "We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to sow the seeds of hate and discord against the religious beliefs of others."

The Campbell Soup plant in Sacramento is closing as of July 2013 as the company say it is taking steps to ‘improve supply chain productivity’, according to a company release. (snip) “We employ about 700 people at the Sacramento plant and unfortunately those jobs will be eliminated,” said Campbell Soup Company spokesperson Anthony Sanzio. The company says the Sacramento plant, built in 1947, is the oldest in their network and has the highest production costs on a per-case basis.

Well you weren't expecting that, were you? When the American contingent decided that it wasn't going to listen to the UN speech of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran yesterday, it wasn't because they were going to get a lecture on the principles of Twelver Shi'ism. They can't have foreseen (can they?) that Mr Ahmadinejad would get through an entire half hour without any reference to wiping Israel off the map, Jewish evil, or 9/11 conspiracy theories. He didn't even talk about that video. Instead, he gave us a lecture about the return of the Mahdi, the Shia Messiah, in the

As much as this video does to prove the dangers inherent in Barack Obama’s far left extremism that has come at the cost of TRILLIONS of dollars that will quite possibly cripple the economic future of this country’s children and grandchildren, there is also something clearly very sad in seeing a human being so devoid of pride, reason, and personal responsibility and sharing their reasoning for why Obama should be given another four more years. Just keep the “free” stuff that we all must pay for coming, eh? This is Obama’s America

Growth in the US economy between April and June has been revised downwards. Gross domestic product (GDP) in the second quarter grew at an annual rate of 1.3% in the second quarter, down from the previous estimate of 1.7%. One of the reasons for the cut was the worst drought for 50 years, which cut farm inventories, the Commerce Department said. Analysts said that the figures available for the third quarter suggested even slower growth. Figures on Thursday showed that demand for long-lasting manufactured goods, known as durable goods, fell sharply in August. Official figures showed that durable goods

The meaning of reams of new data from groundwater testing in a remote Wyoming gas field where the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency sparked concern last year will be a matter of interpretation. Does the new science shore up damnation of hydraulic fracturing — the petroleum industry practice of blasting water, sand and chemicals deep beneath the water table? Or does it refute criticism of the technique as too much anxious hand-wringing? No one is making either claim yet.

Samuel L Jackson unleashes a profane tirade on apathetic voters in a shocking new pro-Obama campaign ad titled 'Wake the F*** Up!' In the startling video, the famously-fowled-mouthed actor confronts the sleepy members of a family with vulgar Dr Seuss-style rhymes that beg them to become active in the president's re-election campaign and blast Republican Mitt Romney. The clip ends when the little girl who accompanies Jackson, Susie, makes a disconcerting exclamation of her own, screaming 'wake the f**** up!' out her bedroom window. The spot is an open admission by a liberal interest group that voters have lost

“To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves and abhors,” Thomas Jefferson once wrote, “is sinful and tyrannical.” If the sage of Monticello is correct, then California’s powerful labor unions—along with the state government that both empowers and is empowered by them—are sinful and tyrannical indeed. In the Golden State, as, alas, in several other states, unions automatically deduct employee wages and funnel them to political campaigns—without the consent of the employee.

(Snip) The group submitted an analysis and letter calling for investigation on the grounds that “there is good reason to believe GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney may be criminally liable for false statements he made in 2011 in his federal financial disclosure filing (form SF-278)—in apparent violation of the federal False Statements Act (18 U.S.C. §1001).” In July, the Boston Globe had

We discover--yet again, you might say--that Germany, Holland, and Finland will not stand behind their solemn pledge of solidarity when push comes to shove. Spain’s premier Mariano Rajoy has been betrayed. Nobody should be entirely surprised if he and the Spanish arch-nationalists in his circle offer a condign riposte, and bring down the entire temple on the heads of the creditor powers. He bit the bullet and agreed to the highly intrusive terms of a €100bn eurozone rescue for the Spanish banking system on a specific understanding: that the ESM bail-out fund would ultimately take over the burden by recapitalising

Giuliani called the administration’s action a “scandal” and said the U.S. media is a “disgrace” for not reporting on it.

Reacting to Cutter saying that women are “not really concerned about what’s happened over the last four years,” Hannity ripped into Cutter for the statement, while Malkin referred to her as a “shameless lying liar.” (Snip) Hannity was set off by Cutter’s most recent statements about the female vote.

Jewish education is all about profanity, bestiality, and dishonesty--if George Soros, Samuel L. Jackson, and Sarah Silverman are to be believed. The so-called "Jewish Council for Education and Research," in reality a super PAC backed by Soros's son Alexander, has produced a new anti-Romney ad in which Jackson exhorts a family to "Wake the F--- Up!" and work for President Barack Obama's re-election. Earlier this year, the Jewish Council released an ad in which Silverman simulates sex with a dog to mock Jewish GOP donor Sheldon Adelson. There is nothing "Jewish" at all about these ads--far from it.

A photograph has emerged of Michelle Obama as a student at Princeton University in the early Eighties. It shows the First Lady at the age of 19, rocking head-to-toe denim - the height of fashion in 1983 - standing with her legs crossed and hands in her pockets. Her hair is worn naturally curly, a far cry from the sleek looks we see her sporting today, proving that even as a student she was in touch with the latest trends. The picture was provided by Kenneth Bruce, who lived next door to Mrs Obama

The first presidential debate is only a week away, but the L. A. Times is laying the groundwork to explain a bad Obama performance in the contest. In a September 26 article, L. A. Times writer Christi Parsons is already foreseeing the possibility of a rocky Obama performance. Her reason why Obama may under perform? He's busy. As far as Parsons is concerned, Obama is at a disadvantage for the up coming debates because he is busy being president and has less time for debate practice than Romney. "President Obama has blocked out three days to prepare
