Democrats won’t bail you out…why let them bail-out insurance companies?

Obamacare mandates tax-payer bailouts for insurers who lose money supporting it.

Democrats wrote the law. They claim the ‘risk-corridor’ section is revenue neutral, but the fact is taxpayers are on the hook for that mandated insurance company bailout.

81% of Americans are against taxpayer bailouts for insurance companies, but it’s not as easy as it sounds to run individual GOP campaigns on this issue.

Republicans running for office in November run the risk of forcing insurance companies to send Democrat opponents huge campaign checks if they sound the bailout warning.

So it’s up to the GOP PACs and conservative news outlets to send out the alarm. Doing so on a national scale makes it more difficult for insurers to counteract with donations.

Ask everyone you talk to if they realize voting Republican could stop an insurer bailout.

The ‘informed voter’…and Dr. Carson’s politics of wishful thinking

Dr. Ben Carson won over many conservatives with his plain talk and common sense.

Unfortunately, it looks like he’s begun a journey down the Wishful Thinking Highway.

It’s true that many of today’s voters are woefully ill-informed. And it’s true that to vote responsibly requires the voter to make an effort to become informed. Yes…e-f-f-o-r-t.

As they say…‘Therein lies the rub’.

For the Low-Information voter, making an effort is not high on their priority. They see no difference between the need to vote…and the need to vote intelligently.

Rather than calling for acts (i.e.,making an ‘effort’) we know will be ignored, Dr. Carson would be well advised to follow a much more logical path to guide the ill-informed voter.

Make it easier for them; boil it down. Make it about Party ideology.

A nation where the economy is prosperous and growing benefits everyone…a nation where government picks winners-and-losers profits only the select few.

The Democrat Party believes in Big Government and crony legislation that favors a few select groups. The Republican Party supports free enterprise, and all business equally.

Business drives America. Everyone benefits, not just the select few.

Try using that logic the next time you talk to an ill-informed voter…

…after all, when was the last time Democrats bailed out one of them?

Proof ‘election cycle’ Democrat Senators are in trouble now…and Hillary’s in trouble in 2016

Drudge has a developing lead that Michelle Obama won’t help in Senate races.

Despite bogus reasons she may give, the real reason she won’t stump for Democrats is there’s a blow-out coming, and she doesn’t want her ‘brand’ tarnished when it happens.

For the GOP…that’s the good news for 2014 midterms.

The bad news? Protecting her ‘brand’ means she has political office in mind.

Move over Hillary…

…looks like there’s another Obama planning to overshadow your candidacy in 2016.

 

Obama blames bad intel…Intelligence experts blame bad president – daily briefs hold the answer

First the ‘Blameless-in-Chief’ said bad intel estimates failed us on Islamist resurgence.

Now comes a DoD/Intel official who lays the blame right where it belongs…on Obama.

Rush Limbaugh is right…the Daily Briefing reports will tell us who failed.

Wonder why Obama won’t offer them up to validate his claim?

Obama/Democrat ‘open-border’ policy enables the spread of disease (UPDATED)

The agencies responsible for securing our borders are controlled by Obama.

Border chaos created by Democrat policies have opened the door for disease.

And the most vulnerable among us are children, who rely on adults to protect them…so reports of mystery diseases and close contact with Ebola indicate a critical gov’t failure.

Republicans have fought an uphill battle against Obama and his Democrat cohort to make them control our southern border for 6 years, for just such a reason.

Voters should keep that in mind when they go to the polls in November.

Fighting back against the Democrat Financial Racism that devastates minorities

It’s no secret that Low Income jobs are predominantly held by minorities.

So, when Democrat energy policy drives costs sky-high, they’re hit hardest.

When Democrat minimum wage hikes take effect, low-income jobs fade away…

…and a Democrat illegal immigration amnesty policy gobbles up the rest of them.

Policies that unfairly penalize minorities are the classic definition of ‘racist’.

Why does the Democrat Party commit Financial Racism against minorities?

Americans get the government they vote for…besides, who needs daily intelligence briefings?

“Report: Obama Has Missed over Half His Second-Term Daily Intel Briefings”

…but blames the intelligence community for underestimating extremist Islamist threats?

Obama staffers say the Poser-in-Chief prefers reading the briefings on his iPad…

…maybe the dog ate that too?

A president’s most important job is to keep Americans safe…

…and Obama attends 42% of the daily briefings key to that crucial function.

Americans get the government (and thus, the national security) that they vote for.

Congress should defund programs Obama’s team won’t account for

The accounting system, used to manage Obamacare, doesn’t track expenditures?

Isn’t that the ‘accounting’ part?

“Federal health insurance officials can’t tell Congress how much the government has spent since 2010 selling Obamacare to a key segment of the market, according to the Government Accountability Office.”  (Thanks, Washington Examiner)

‘Can’t’ should be changed to… WON’T.

Federal law requires all tax-payer funded programs be tracked. Administration officials who won’t obey federal law should be punished to the full extent of the law.

And Congress should defund programs not complying with accountability requirements.

Immediately.

(If Obamacare was working, you can bet Obama would be releasing data. How bad it’s failing is demonstrated by their unwillingness to provide any data at all.)

There’s no denying the Democrat ‘Financial Rape’ of Women

Liberal angst over our Sunday post begins, but BlueCollar refuses to be ‘gender-bludgeoned’…rape is defined as “an act of plunder, violent seizure, or abuse.”

Democrats, through their energy policy, fit that definition to a ‘T’.

Blogged first in July, and re-stated here, to support our Sunday post:

If a GOP ‘war-on-women’ screed is defined by $20/month contraceptive costs…

…then Democrat policies that cost an extra $200-$300/month is Financial Rape.

Democrat energy policy drives an artificial spike in energy costs. Energy touches every part of our lives…manufacturing, agricultural, service industries – all energy dependent.

Electricity we depend on; gasoline for the daily drive to work; power to run our factories that manufacture goods, and harvest/deliver food products to your grocery store…

…all facets of our lives are affected when “energy prices necessarily skyrocket”.

Democrats love to hammer Republicans as conducting a war-on-women, because the GOP thinks the personal use of contraceptives shouldn’t be taxpayer subsidized.

How is it Sandra Fluke gets worked up over the possibility she may have to spend her own money for a monthly $25 birth-control-pill prescription…

…but can’t be bothered to worry about having to shell out $200-$300 extra a month for food, electricity, and gasoline…as a result of ‘necessarily skyrocketed’ energy costs?

Is she really THAT clueless?

Or, since it’s Democrat policy, has she decided to relax and enjoy it?
