Why The Chamber of Commerce Is Planning To Attack Conservatives and Tea Party Candidates…

Yesterday we shared the story of the CoC announcing their intention to spend $50 million in order to protect and maintain establishment Republicans.     Yesterday the SCF (Senate Conservatives Fund) also sent out a distribution letter notifying supporters of the same issue.
However, the SCF misses the point when they note:

“The Chamber is pro-bailout, pro-stimulus, and pro-debt so it’s no surprise they want to elect more liberal Republicans.”

GOP-versus-Tea-PartyAll of which is true but that’s not the primary impetus behind the current $50+ million for the 2014 election cycle.
The reason the Chamber of Commerce is willing to spend so much money to protect the Mitch McConnells of the world was openly discussed a few weeks ago when the Chamber President appeared on Neil Cavuto.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is heavily invested in two legislative constructs.   First, immigration reform.  Second, maintaining Obamacare.
John Boehner has promised to deliver immigration reform next year.  Nancy Pelosi openly admitted as such and it is widely expected to be the platform for President Obama’s entire State of The Union speech.
Bottom line – Establishment Republicans are going to deliver Amnesty legislation on behalf of the CoC request. (more…)

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce Announces Plans To Spend $50 Million To Defend Establishment GOP Republicans…

Setting aside the agenda bias inherent in this article (last line) it just once again solidifies what direction the Republican Establishment choose to take.   The cocktail party is going to relentlessly work to destroy anyone who would loosen the ever desperate, yet dying, grip on their ideological power. 

Before we can destroy the anti-freedom liberalist contingents we must first rid ourselves of the toxic infection that remains the Republican Party Decepticons.  It begins with getting rid of Mitch McConnell – Support the Tea Party.

(Via Ballot Box) The Chamber of Commerce is planning to spend at least $50 million on a campaign to boost establishment Republicans in primaries against Tea Party challengers, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The group’s broader aim is to help the GOP win Senate control and block Tea Party Republican candidates who might lose otherwise winnable seats to Democrats.

“Our No. 1 focus is to make sure, when it comes to the Senate, that we have no loser candidates,” Chamber political strategist Scott Reed tells the Journal. “That will be our mantra: No fools on our ticket.” (more…)

Liberalism is Flailing And The Media Help To Identify Their Position

The progressive mantra of modern liberalism is flailing miserably everywhere you look and the media protestations of a “Do Nothing Congress” are flares shooting up from their encampments identifying exactly where they reside.

All around us are signs the various liberalist causes are visibly in the minority.   The odd thing is how willing the progressives are to out their failing positions.    Against the liberal yard-stick of emotional legislative advancement, which is diametrically antithetical to freedom, the media are proclaiming congress as failed.
However, when you consider that stopping intrusion by government into your life is a central tenant of freedom this congress is the most successful in a decade.
Coast to coast people are showing their pushback against the nanny state.    People are rising up, or using their TV remotes, or tuning their car radios, or expressing their voice, to reflect an ideology of freedom in opposition to the current federal administration and the beliefs they visibly represent.

Stompy Feet Stomps – It's Obvious He Can't Wait To Get The Heck Outta There…

Milli Vanilli stopped doing live concerts as soon as the audience became aware they were lip-syncing.
Look at his face as President Edsel is being questioned.  Then listen to what Obama actually says in his response.   “I’m not concerned with polling, I don’t pay attention to polling” [… seconds later …]  “When I was a senator I was polling at 70%“.   Think about it.

Obamacare – Sebelius Says "Some Will Pay More"…. Let's Discuss The "Some"

A video of HHS Kathleen Sebelius is making the rounds on social media and blogs.   In the video she admits that “some will pay more” for health insurance under the ObamaCare program.


Cut to chase.  Get down to brass tacks.   Stop the BS.   Say what is.  She says “some”.
Here’s what is taking place – If you had insurance prior to ObamaCare you will pay more, period. (more…)

Dictatorial Fiat – White House Demands Insurance Providers Give "Free Coverage" Or Else They Will Be Thrown Off Exchanges Next Year….

(Via Forbes)  Of all of the last-minute delays, website bungles, and Presidential whims that have marred the roll-out of Obamacare’s subsidized insurance exchanges, what happened on Thursday, December 12 will stand as one of the most lawless acts yet committed by this administration.
Kathleen_Sebelius 4
The White House—having canceled Americans’ old health plans, and having botched the system for enrolling people in new ones—knows that millions of Americans will enter the new year without health coverage. So instead of actually fixing the problem, the administration is retroactively attempting to force insurers to hand out free health care—at a loss—to those whom the White House has rendered uninsured. If Obamacare wasn’t a government takeover of the health insurance industry, then what is it now?
On Wednesday afternoon, health policy reporters found in their inboxes a friendly e-mail from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, announcing “steps to ensure Americans signing up through the Marketplace have coverage and access to the care they need on January 1.” Basically, the “steps” involve muscling insurers to provide free or discounted care to those who have become uninsured because of the problems with healthcare.gov.

A House Divided – Boehner Attacks Tea Party ? We Knew This Was Coming – So Don't Be Surprised…

So Speaker John Boehner doesn’t LIKE US ?
duh
In 2009 we had a decision to make.   Either assemble our rapidly growing force under a new structure, a new political party; or align and take over an existing structure, and existing political party.     A prudent decision was made in 2010 to just take over an existing structure – Conservatives became insurgents within the Republican Party.
912-teaparty-dc-09Initially the GOP saw benefit to our association.   Through us they could gain back the House of Representatives, and we did.   We handed them the gavel as a stop-gap measure to slow the growth of the infection, big government, that was killing our freedom.
But the GOP doesn’t like us.   We are not *their* type of people.  We are surly, deliberate, loud and, according to them, unrefined extremists, jihobbits and terrorists and such.   They consider us a rowdy bunch more comfy with a beer straight from the bottle and incapable of appreciating the aroma of their preferred vintages.
In short, they don’t like us.  We represent a risk to their influence, careers and livelihoods built upon retention of power.
Screw em’. (more…)

Nancy Pelosi: Speaker John Boehner Has Promised Amnesty Bill Next Year (Next Congressional Session) "He Told Me Yes"….

Amnesty Legislation – Mitch McConnell supports it,  The U.S. Chamber of Commerce supports it, The Republican Party Supports it, every single Democrat supports it, and you are going to get it whether you want it or not.
WASHINGTON DC – House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said she spoke with Speaker John Boehner on Tuesday and asked when an overhaul to immigration laws could be considered in the House.
He told me yes, we have to wait until next year,” Pelosi told reporters on Wednesday morning.
Democrats have been pushing House Republicans to hold a vote on a landmark immigration reform bill that was passed in June, or try to work on their own immigration legislation. But Republicans have been apprehensive, with the most conservative members opposed to anything that could provide a pathway to citizenship or legalization for undocumented immigrants.  (continue reading)

PolitiFact 'Lie Of The Year' Award – From The Lying Liar That Lies: "If you like your health care plan, you can keep it, period"…

(Via Politifact)  It was a catchy political pitch and a chance to calm nerves about his dramatic and complicated plan to bring historic change to America’s health insurance system.
Liar 1.0
If you like your health care plan, you can keep it,” President Barack Obama said — many times — of his landmark new law.
But the promise was impossible to keep.
So this fall, as cancellation letters were going out to approximately 4 million Americans, the public realized Obama’s breezy assurances were wrong. (more…)

Spontaneous White House Combustion Possible – "Skippy" and "The Fixer" Both Under One Roof…. (With Jarrett ?)

Delicious news – President Obama is hiring John “Damn Skippy” Podesta to join his inner circle and advisors.  Podesta was for Bill Clinton what Denis “The Fixer” McDonough is to President Obama.

Now both “Skippy” and “Fixer” are part of the Obama circle with Valerie Jarrett still looming.   That is a highly volatile mix.   Explosive and unstable in the extreme.
However, it makes sense against the backdrop of a Hillary run in 2016 because Team Clinton needs to have their interests represented quickly. (more…)
