Faced with rising costs and residents still without health insurance, Vermont lawmakers are poised to pass a single-payer healthcare plan, which would reshape how the state’s doctors are paid and become the first of its type in the US. (more)
Forget comedy clubs, if you really want a laugh these days you simply have to venture over to the Media Matters website. The extent to which the organization is willing to contort reality to keep fellow “progressives” in line is nothing short of an expert yoga class. Given their recent “declaration of war” against Fox News for perceived bias, and the questionable legality of it given the group’s “charity” tax status, this is as surprising as the sun rising in the east each morning. There is no length to which Media Matters’ employees will not go to defend anything Democrats do; it’s what they’re paid to do. So it came as little surprise that on the one-year anniversary of Obamacare’s passage, Media Matters was there to defend the unpopular law. (more)
It’s funny how life works. Even when I agree with Barack Obama, I am still offended by his Big Brother attitude and nanny state tactics. Obama’s actions remind me of a dictator who thinks he knows better than you or me. Last week, President Barack Obama erased any doubt that he sees himself as a king rather than as the elected servant of the American people. Obama declared he would not defend a law passed by the Congress of the United States called DOMA (The Defense of Marriage Act). (more)

Nevertheless, it is necessary if we are not only to repeal Obamacare but replace it with reform that puts the American people — not employers or government — in control of our access to medical services. (more)
Yesterday, a federal judge in Florida declared unconstitutional Obamacare’s mandate that all Americans purchase health insurance — the linchpin of the unpopular law rammed through last March by congressional Democrats. If the mandate is ultimately struck down by the Supreme Court, Obamacare will unravel and Congress will have little choice but to reopen the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act for amendment. That would enable us to reverse the government takeover and adopt a patient-centered approach. (more)
WASHINGTON – Sen. Lindsey Graham plans to introduce a measure today (Tuesday) that would allow states to opt out of key components of the new health-insurance law if their legislatures and governors authorize it. (more)

Will the Department of Health and Human Services’ current “two-waiver-a-day” rule keep Obamacare away, effectively waivering the law obsolete? (more)
I’m sure that many of you have driven a car for so many years that eventually the engine gives out. You can put in a new muffler or a new radiator. You can replace the transmission and put on a new coat of paint. But if the engine has failed, then that car won’t run again until you put in a new engine. (more)
