WASHINGTON – With the Supreme Court giving President Obama’s new health care law a green light, federal and state officials are turning to implementation of the law — a lengthy and massive undertaking still in its early stages, but already costing money and expanding the government.

The Health and Human Services Department “was given a billion dollars implementation money,” Republican Rep. Denny Rehberg of Montana said. “That money is gone already on additional bureaucrats and IT programs, computerization for the implementation.” (more…)

There are literally hundreds of possible examples of the actions being advanced upon our nation by the entrenched ideology of liberalism.
Meanwhile moderates call for a pragmatic approach toward finding common ground.

(The Washington Times) — Federal immigration authorities have begun granting tentative legal status to illegal immigrants under President Obama’s deportation halt — and in some cases are even ignoring the administration’s eligibility rules to stop deportations for those who shouldn’t qualify, according to the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.
Rep. Lamar Smith, Texas Republican, said he’s learned some illegal immigrants who have been in the U.S. less than five years have had their deportations canceled, even though Mr. Obama and Homeland Security Secretary Janet A. Napolitano had listed the five-year mark as one of their criteria. (more…)

A Court source tells Salon the chief justice wrote the majority opinion and much of the dissent in the Obamacare case….
(Salon) This past weekend CBS News’ Jan Crawford reported that Chief Justice John Roberts switched his vote in regard to upholding the bulk of the Affordable Care Act. Crawford reports that Roberts voted with the rest of the court’s conservatives to strike down the individual mandate, but in the course of drafting his opinion changed his mind, and ended up siding with the court’s four liberals to uphold almost all of the law.

Roberts arrives in Malta

In response, according to Crawford’s story, the four conservatives then independently crafted a highly unusual joint dissent. If so, this would represent a powerful symbolic gesture: Joint Supreme Court opinions are rare. Normally a justice authors an individual opinion, which other justices may choose to join. Jointly authored opinions are reserved for momentous statements of principle, such as in Cooper v. Aaron, when all nine justices jointly authored an opinion declaring that the court’s anti-segregation decisions were binding on state governments that disagreed with the court’s constitutional interpretations.

Happy Independence Day

The speculation about the actual encounter between George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin continues to be obfuscated and presented in disingenuous terms.   It is time to address the actual known facts about the physical encounter.  Period.
As a 17-year-old matriculating young man Trayvon Martin was actively a follower of Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) style street fighting.   Research into his known interests reveal that Trayvon was not only prone to enjoyment of MMA street fighting, but he was an avid follower and participant. This is evidenced by his own U-Tube subscriptions to MMA fights and his conversations with others about it.   He watched videos, followed MMA fights, and even participated with other friends in acting it out.

Again, as a reminder, if you look at Arm wrestling brother subscription Trayvon had to trujillodragonhulk, on the surface it seems innocuous. But it deals with, and showcases, underground fighting, and MMA style street fights. Go check it out. It looks like it became an interest to Trayvon around the time he had a signficant growing spurt, about a year ago (April/May 2011). (more…)
