President Obama Succeeding at Insuring Those Already with Insurance

By Dr. Larry Kawa

Our beloved President Barack Obama apparently forgot to tell the American people the small print when he announced that over 2 million Americans are now insured because of Obamacare. As it turns out, 89 percent of all people who have signed up for health insurance on the monstrosity known as healthcare.gov already had health insurance. According to the Wall Street Journal, respected management consulting firm McKinsey & Co. found that only 11 percent of Americans who bought healthcare insurance through healthcare.gov were previously uninsured. Only this administration can force an insurance company to cancel an individual's policy, then force that individual to buy health insurance from the government, and call it a success story.

I Pity New York but Not New Yorkers

By Joe Messina

New York has always been a micro history of this great country... Well, NO MORE! New York and its politics is becoming a symbol for the very things this country has always fought against. Freedoms in New York are being lost at an alarming rate. The Twitchy.com staff summarized Governor Andrew Cuomo best as basically saying, attention all wingnuts bitterly clinging to the "extreme" notion that there's a "right to life," there's "no place" for you in the state of New York! Here’s what the Governor said about New York state elected Republican representatives: "Are they these extreme conservatives who are right-to-life, pro-assault-weapon, anti-gay? Is that who they are? Because if that's who they are and they're the extreme conservatives, they have no place in the state of New York, because that's not who New Yorkers are." There is a very large number of New Yorkers who are religious, God-believing, right-to-life-believing people and, obviously, voters. Many of whom just simply want to go about their business and let people live their lives. Those people are about to get bitten. Between Cuomo and DeBlazio, they are almost guaranteed that there really is no place for them in New York. [more...]

Why New York City Shouldn't Be in the Education Business

By Kerry Lutz

I draw liberally from a recent expose in the New York Post which clearly demonstrates why the limited government espoused by our founders is the best way to go, especially when it comes to education. Public School 106, located in an extremely poor section of Far Rockaway Queens in New York City, is perhaps the worst public school in the nation. As the Post reported extensively, the principal runs a school of "no." The kids had gotten no math, reading or writing books for the rigorous Common Core curriculum. (We won't even go into the efficacy of this misguided anti-American educational effort here). The 234 students received no gym or art classes. Instead they watched movies every day. The school nurse has no office equipped with a sink refrigerator or cot. The library is a mess with nothing in order. [more horrors at this and other schools...]

The Deterioration of the Two Major Parties, Income Disparity, The NSA Decision, Iran and Obamacare

By John LeBoutillier

On this week's POLITICAL INSIDERS, we discuss the President's NSA decision, the Democrats' deterioration due to Obamacare, the shocking Gallup finding that 42% of Americans say they are worse off today than one year ago, and the long-term political fall-out from income disparity. Watch our two shows here: Sunday Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Monday on the Dot Com. [more...]

Media Matters Gropes to Defend Union Opposition to Federal Classroom Predator Bill

By Kyle Olson

Since when did the effort to keep sexual predators away from children become a controversial issue?  When the National Education Association and American Federation of Teachers decided to put collective bargaining and adult employees' so-called rights ahead of child safety. A bill in Congress – introduced by Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives and passed by a voice vote in that chamber – would require a background check for government school employment applicants and would bar those with certain serious felonies from being hired. The felonies? Murder, rape, spousal abuse, arson and kidnapping. [more...]
