Democrats Next to Move to Unionize Obamacare Doctors
Canada Free Press, by Warner Todd Huston

In another sign that our healthcare industry is soon to be just another arm of the Democrat Party, Chicago Democrat Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky thinks itâ€™s a great idea if doctors unionize.

This will completely end any chance that doctors will care about patients. They will instead become just another uncaring, slipshod union hack that wonâ€™t much care about the excellence of his work because heâ€™s protected by union rules. Patients will no longer matter.

Doctors will be just like officious DMV employees. Just like lazy Streets and Sans guys. Like all those little bored, arrogant placemen that work for government.

You, the patient, will no longer matter at all.

Obama plan to lift top tax
rates would plague millions of
small businesses, study warns
Washington Post, by J.D. Harrison

Should Congress allow the tax rates for the nationâ€™s highest earners to expire at the end of the year, millions of small businesses could be forced to cut jobs and wages, placing an enormous strain on the already sluggish economic recovery, according to a new study. A bitter debate has recently swept the Hill over the future of the Bush-era tax rates, which are scheduled to increase in January. President Obama has proposed extending the cuts for another year, but only for mid- and low-income families, allowing the cuts to expire for households that annually bring in more than $250,000.

Taxpayer watchdog calls on IRS to probe re-branded Texas ACORN branch
FOX News, by Perry Chiaramonte

The former Texas ACORN chapter has a new name and a scheme to collect donations and divert them for political use in a way that abuses tax laws governing charitable organizations, according to a Washington-based public interest group.

Cause of Action, a nonprofit taxpayer watchdog, charged in a letter to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration that the tax-exempt Texas Organizing Project (TOP), formed from the ashes of scandal-ridden ACORN, is using money funneled to it by a closely associated group called the Texas Organizing Project Education Fund for political activity.

The fund gave nearly 80 percent of its revenues -- approximately $640,000 -- to the advocacy group in 2010, leading Cause of Action officials to believe its reason for being is to raise charitable donations to send to TOP, which is permitted to fund political activity. TOP has used its website to solicit support for Mary Ann Perez, a Democrat running for state representative.

Obama frags military voters
Washington Times, by Editorial

President Obama goes out of his way to appear to support the troops. But when it comes to voting, he would like to keep them out of the fight.

The Obama for America Campaign, the Democratic National Committee and the Ohio Democratic Party are suing the critical swing state of Ohio to strike down a law that makes it easier for members of the military to vote. Under the law, people in uniform may cast early ballots in person up to the day before an election, instead of the previous Friday cutoff for other voters.

Democrats have a transparent political motive. A May 2012 Gallup survey showed Mr. Obama trailing Mitt Romney among veterans 58 to 34 percent. â€œAbout a fourth of men are veterans,â€ Gallup reported, â€œand it is their strong skew toward Romney that essentially creates the GOP candidateâ€™s leading position among men today.â€

Report: Auto bailout cost taxpayers $3.4B more than estimated
The Hill, by Alicia M. Cohn

The federal government's bailout of the auto industry will cost $3.4 billion more than previously thought, according to revised estimates this week from the Treasury Department.

The department now says the taxpayer burden is $25.1 billion, up from the last quarterly estimate of $21.7 billion, Reuters reported Monday.

The 2009 federal bailout of General Motors and Chrysler continues to play a key role in the presidential election, particularly in the critical swing states of Michigan and Ohio.

President Obama has touted the bailout as a successful accomplishment in his first term. Romney has argued that the auto bailout was not such a success. He says many jobs were lost â€” particularly in Michigan and Ohio â€” which have still not been recovered. The high cost to taxpayers can only help Romney's argument.

This is EXACTLY why he didn't do this in his first term and EXACTLY why business' are NOT hiring right now. All of Dumbo's "tax increases" are slated to begin in 2012. For him to claim it worked for Clinton and will work again is utter bullxhit! Sorry idiots....this is a whole different economic time we're in and the 200-250k crowd wasn't part of the Clinton tax hike. So...Obama knows damn well this will sink the ship... :smt006

In Harvard essay, young Michelle Obama
argued for race-based faculty hiring
Daily Caller, by Charles Johnson

During her third and final year at Harvard Law School, first lady Michelle Obama â€” then named Michelle Robinson â€” penned an article for the newsletter of Harvardâ€™s Black Law Students Association (BLSA), arguing that Harvard and its students were perpetuating â€œracist and sexist stereotypesâ€ by not intentionally hiring minority and female law professors on the basis of their sex or skin color.

The 1988 essay, titled â€œMinority and Women Law Professors: A Comparison of Teaching Styles,â€ ran in a special edition of the BLSA Memo. The future first lady justified her demands for more black and female law school faculty by attacking the â€œtraditional model,â€ in which law students were educated through the Socratic method.

She also opposed the traditional meritocratic hiring principle, where professors with better legal pedigrees were more often hired, arguing that it limited the success of women and blacks.

Question edge,

if one of your kids was confronting a life and death medical situation, which doctor would you prefer?

a White doctor who is the best in his field, or the minority doctor who failed twice before they changed the grading curve that finally allowed him to pass?

which one would you prefer to treat your child?

Obama's Long History of Political Racial Solidarity
Breitbart's Big Government, by Charles C. Johnson

Many people were taken in by Barack Obama's hopey-changey 2008 campaign. They thought that this was the real Barack Obama -- a man of optimism and vision. But the 2012 campaign has shown a side of Obama that the American public seems to be increasingly disturbed by. What they don't know is that it was 2008 that was the exception to the Obama campaign strategy; 2012's racially polarizing campaign is right up Obama's historical alley.

Back in 1999, Illinois State Senator Barack Obama made clear what he thought of black voters: they were all the same. Or, at the very least, they ought to all vote the same. In an interview with Chinta Strausberg of the Chicago Defender, he explained that the black legislative caucus wasnâ€™t unified enough on economic development.

The then-state senator was talking about a plan for riverboat casinos, which he opposed because it â€œtook care of some already wealthy people.â€ He hoped to shame black politicians who voted for the riverboat casinos, to make them â€œfeel guilty enough about some of the thingsâ€ they do â€œfor these rich folks.â€

â€œThe [black] caucus is not functioning as it should,â€ Obama told WCGIâ€™s Cliff Kelley in late May 1999. â€œThe problem right now is that we donâ€™t have a unified agenda thatâ€™s enforced back in the community
and is clearly articulated. Everybody tends to be lone agents in these situations.â€

In Obamaâ€™s mind, all black legislators had to vote the same way. Why? Because of their race.

Obamacare law designed
to unionize 21 million
health care workers
Daily Caller, by David Martosko

In a book set for publication Tuesday, a politics and government professor at The Citadel claims President Obamaâ€™s 2009 health care reform law was, in part, a union-driven effort to organize 21 million health care workers.

In â€Shadowbosses: Government Unions Control America and Rob Taxpayers Blind,â€ Mallory Factor describes a December 9, 2008 memo from Service Employees International Union (SEIU) Healthcare president Dennis Rivera to the Obama-Biden transition team.

That memo outlined a legislative proposal calling for â€œincreasing the capacity of the health care workforceâ€ as part of a larger health care reform initiative.

The SEIU and the Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), Factor writes, later coordinated with other public-sector unions to spend â€œliterally hundreds of millions of dollars promoting Obamacare.â€

The Daily Caller requested comments for this article from the SEIU, AFSCME and a White House spokesman. None of them responded.

How is that going to play with R+R...they both support abortions for rape (don't know if that means a legitimate one or not though) and in cases to save the life of the mother...

Report: ACORN network still active under new names
Washington Examiner, by Sean Higgins

The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now or ACORN famously came under fire a few years ago because its political affiliates engaged in electioneering and lobbying. There was also an embezzlement scandal, allegations of facilitating voter fraud and a notorious video sting by conservative provocateur James Oâ€™Keefe. The organization officially announced the closure of its offices in 2010 after losing government funding due to the controversies.

But that doesnâ€™t mean it vanished from the landscape altogether. The nonprofit watchdog group Cause of Action published a list today of â€œstill-active ACORN entities, ACORN allies, and rebranded ACORN organizations.â€

The connections between these groups and the old ACORN groups include: having the same physical location, sharing leadership or staff or having the same tax ID number. â€œFor some of these groups, all they did was legally change their name. Nothing else changed. The corporate structure, leadership and staff are the same,â€ said Karen Groen Olea, Cause of Actionâ€™s chief counsel.

At least two of the groups, Affordable Housing Centers of America and Mutual Housing Association of New York, have received federal dollars, Cause of Action said.
