I was thinking about this earlier today, or last night. Before the “Economic Traitor” bomb got dropped.

During the French Revolution, the leftist (they were leftists) totalitarian government attempted to inflate away its problems by just printing up a crapton of paper money.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius had three-and-a-half years to build the Obamacare exchanges. Now, GOP House members in charge of oversight want answers as to how the online system that cost taxpayers over half-a-billion dollars has failed on such a grand scale.

On Thursday, House GOP members of the Committee on Energy and Commerce sent aletter to Sebelius requesting an oversight briefing to occur no later than October 16th. The letter says Sebelius’s staff told lawmakers that the Obamacare exchanges were “proceeding on schedule and did not identify any problems like the ones now being experienced on HealthCare.gov.”    Continue reading “Experts: Obamacare Tech Failures only Beginning”

Remember this next time the corporate media are trying to sell the next war…

Before the White House’s Syrian War flop, networks like CNN, MSNBC, Fox News and Bloomberg TV wheeled out at least 22 different men who they claimed were “pundits” and “commentators”, but in actuality were merely bomb and missile salesmen – who held director, board and shareholding positions with military giants like Raytheon, DC Capital Partners and BAE Systems.   Continue reading “At Least 22 Defense Industry Stakeholders Used as ‘Pundits’ by US Media to Sell Syria War”

More DC Truckers along with many other vehicles have continued to pour into the nation’s capital today, as day three of Ride for the Constitution commences.

WEB Notes: Yesterday we covered the firing of these generals and today in a video. It does not take a rocket scientist to figure out these generals are being purged from the system and it is not because of their “crimes.” Understanding that two of the generals were in control of nuclear weapons is extremely alarming. What is it that they were told to do that they failed to go along with…
