ConservativeBlog.org /
In their increasingly desperate attempts to find a way to defend the accumulating disasters of ObamaCare, I've heard more than a few liberals in recent days make the claim that, problems or not, ObamaCare is better than the status quo. Their argument frequently rests on the oft-cited, but thoroughly misunderstood, ...

Obamacare Propaganda Isn’t Effective When The Hard Truth Is Smacking You In The Face

ConservativeBlog.org /
Yesterday the Dept. of Health and Human Services made another sad attempt at convincing people that the number of people losing their health insurance isn’t really that bad.

Disgusting Demagogues Drive Down Ratings

ConservativeBlog.org /
When the only tool you have is blind hatred, you tend to treat everything with vitriol. That appears to be the working motto of MSNBC. Rather than reporting news or analyzing President Obama’s laws and policies, the network’s talking heads seem to spend the majority of their time tearing down ...

Harry Reid is Not Learning from the ObamaCare Fiasco

ConservativeBlog.org /
You'd think that in the middle of the ObamaCare meltdown -- ObamaCare having just barely been approved with no bipartisan consensus and bypassing ordinary Senate procedures -- that Majority Leader Harry Reid would have learned something. He didn't: He just used the "nuclear option" for presidential nominees, allowing the Senate ...

1. “It’s not that it’s not working. It’s still being developed and tested.”  Thus spake Henry Chao, deputy chief information officer of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, during an Energy and Commerce Committee hearing yesterday.  Apparently 30%-40% (or is it 60-70%?) of Healthcare.gov still has to be built, including ...

If ObamaCare Is to Make Us All Baby Daddies, I’d Like to Know Why

Black Conservative Calls Out Baldwin Bullying

ConservativeBlog.org /
Alec Baldwin has anger issues.  But it’s apparently OK because he’s progressive. Depending on which way the hatred flows, it seems that one can get a pass from the professional feelings lobby of the left.  In other words, one can be hateful on occasion as long as that person is ...

Cooper Counters Oprah on Obama, Race and Respect

Billionaire media mogul Oprah Winfrey, the top celebrity according to Forbes magazine’s ranking, apparently still feels that she is burdened by her race.

It’s Time for Big Pharma to Apologize

A ‘Surreal’ Train Wreck

ConservativeBlog.org /
