Dave Ramsey Walks Through Obamacare – AND Yes, EVERYONE is Going To Pay More – You Can't Hide From Math….

When it comes to your position on Obamacare, financial guru Dave Ramsey says political parties don’t matter—only math.
“Your health insurance premiums are going to go way up,” Ramsey said on his Oct. 4 show. “They have to . . . it’s not a political statement. It’s that I know how to do math.”


Starting January 1, every health insurance company in America is required to take anyone as a customer, regardless of their health, and cannot charge them more.
Before Obamacare, insurance companies charged “sick” people higher prices because they were receiving medical care more often. But Obamacare forces healthier (often younger) people to pay for that care. While Ramsey understands the moral underpinnings, he said it doesn’t change the math — you will be forced to pay more.

This "McConnell Rule" Is VERY Worrisome – Chuck Schumer To Push Introduction of McConnell Plan For Future Debt Ceiling Increases….

This was discussed on NBC’s Meet the Press Sunday – With Senator Chuck Schumer announcing his intention to bring up this new fiscal rule.

Reid-Schumer
Essentially, instead of Congress having to vote to raise the debt ceiling, the Executive Branch would have unlimited ability to raise it and Congress could only vote to *disapprove it*.   Meaning, a super-majority would be needed in the Senate (66 votes) to BLOCK the President from raising the debt ceiling.
Mitch McConnell 3It is called the “McConnell Rule” because, unbelievably, it was Republican Senator Mitch McConnell’s idea. Go figure.…
(Via National Review Online) Senator Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) is planning on introducing legislation containing Senator Mitch McConnell’s proposal to change the debt ceiling and weaken Congress’s power over it.

“One way to avoid this from happening again is for us to implement the McConnell rule, which says that Congress must disapprove rather than approve increases in the debt ceiling,” Schumer said on Meet the Press. “If we were to do that, the chances of going up to the brink again, the chances of this kind of debacle would decrease. I’m going to introduce legislation to do just that, and it would really help.”

The Obamacare "Credibility Death Spiral" – Propaganda So Extreme, Even The Main Stream Media Won't Be Able To Avoid It ?….

Can White House propaganda be extreme enough the Main Stream Media will actually avoid participation?    Personally, I doubt it because the example of Benghazi Cover hangs too recent in memory.

bony-and-dried
However, there is such a thing as trying too hard; as in – trying so hard to keep up favorable appearances that your own credibility becomes dangerously at risk of ridicule.

[Again, I find it difficult to believe there is *any* level of White House propaganda so extreme the adoring media would ever call it out.   Because if such a sense or possibility even existed, they would most certainly have done so by now.]

All of that said, there does appear to be something, something unusual, something quite different, with this Obamacare fiasco.   Even CBS New’s Political Director John Dickerson says it could lead to a “credibility death spiral”: (more…)

Another Modern Example Of How Liberal Democrat Policies Support Segregation…. Los Angeles Students To Be Segregated By English Proficiency

We’re always astounded with how much success modern liberals have convincing people the divisive, segregationist, and yes -racist- group is always “the other guy”.   When the factual truth is that historical, and progressive, liberalism (ie. Democrats) is built on the cornerstones of separation and categorizing people. 
Yesterday we shared how Obamacare will group, or pair, patient treatment, by matching the race of the patient with the race of their doctor.  Another unfortunate example shines today:
 CALIFORNIA – America is already in danger of being separated into sub-sections by the lack of the one necessary element for a unified society – a common language.
Now the Los Angeles Unified School District has decided to take a further step backward by segregating classes by the level of English that students speak. In other words, those who speak fluent English will be grouped together, while those who struggle will be grouped together.
The change was apparently made due to a complaint from the federal Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights, which charged the district with failing to provide adequate services to English-learning students, the L.A. Times said.

Welcome Home – An Eight Minute Standing Ovation For Texas Senator Ted Cruz….

….  The bestest part about this article, the group was ‘WOMEN’ !  You can almost hear the Trembling Democrat Splodey Head’s now.   L 😀 L
(TEXAS – Via Reuters) Republican U.S. Senator Ted Cruz, a favorite of the conservative Tea Party movement, returned home to a rousing welcome in Texas on Saturday after his attempt to derail Obamacare with a shutdown of the federal government led to sharp criticism of his tactics as reckless and futile.
“After two months in Washington, it’s great to be back in America,” Cruz joked in speaking to a crowd of about 750 people in a packed downtown San Antonio hotel ballroom.
Cruz was greeted with an eight-minute standing ovation in an appearance organized by the Texas Federation of Republican Women. People in attendance, many of them wearing red to show their support for keeping Texas a conservative-leaning state, lined up to greet him. (more…)

Alaska

‘This is a self portrait of my self under a glacier in Alaska took with a 360 camera to get the most possible angles of the picture. This was by far  the most amazing experience. This cave took me more than two hours to reach on a  hike over a mountainside through swamps and about 30 minutes of walking on the  glacier itself. When I first walked under the Glacier it was the most breath  taking and scary experience I have lived’
