Re: Obamanation here today
I've noticed that some threads start to have that problem when they get up over 100 pages. I use firefox and I was thinking it might be browser specific, but I've been too lazy to check.Is anybody else having trouble opening up this thread to the most recent posts?

Re: Obamanation here today
Once Obama lied, he had to back pedal a bit.......he's a dirty campaigner and nothing else!! Just because you raise money for a group, it doesn't mean "YOU FUND IT" !!

ObamaCare Waivers
By Adam Bitely
Want out of the new ObamaCare regulations? All you have to do is be a big business that offers mini med-plans and apply for a waiver from the Health and Human Services Department. Just simply indicate that it costs your business too much money and they will grant you an exemption.
Wouldn't it be nice if all Americans could back out of ObamaCare so easily?
Over the past few weeks, headlines have been made nationwide regarding large companies amending their health care plans or announcing plans to discontinue their plans altogether in light of new ObamaCare regulations. These companies range from McDonald's to 3M.
3M is dropping coverage for its retirees, achieving exactly what the Obama administration intended when they designed the Health Care bill. The government has created an incentive for companies to save money by dumping their Health Care coverage for their employees and retirees, which in turn dumps them into the government system.
McDonald's is currently providing mini-med plans for nearly 30,000 employees. With increases mandated by ObamaCare on the annual limits of such plans, McDonald's indicated that it was too expensive to offer the plans with the increases. That's why McDonald's applied for a waiver to be exempt from the annual limits increase on the mini-med health care plans. So in 2014, when the exemptions are no longer granted, McDonald's will most likely cancel the plans altogether dumping more people into the government system.
Just look at how the annual limits increase over the course of the next two years, according to the HHS:
· For plan or policy years beginning on or after September 23, 2010 but before September 23, 2011, $750,000;
· For plan or policy years beginning on or after September 23, 2011 but before September 23, 2012, $1.25 million; and
· For plan or policy years beginning on or after September 23, 2012 but before January 1, 2014, $2 million.
The effect ObamaCare is having on individual Americans becomes clearer with each passing day. As the government hands down more regulations to put ObamaCare into effect, we will see a continued reduction in the number of people on employer health care plans. And this is all further evidence that the current health care plans Americans enjoy will continue to decrease as ObamaCare takes effect, standing in direct contrast to Obama's promise that most people would be able to keep their current Health Care plan.
In fact, the U.S. Department of Labor admitted as much in a recent regulation where they estimated that up to 69 percent of private health plans will lose their grandfathered status by the end of 2013 — forcing their customers to change providers whether they want to or not.
While government bureaucrats sift through 1,500 requests from businesses to receive waivers on annual limits increases, many Americans are in fear that they will soon be without the health care coverage they currently have. One thing is for sure though, it sure would be nice if all of America could apply for a waiver to escape the impending doom of ObamaCare.

Re: Obamanation here today
(Washington Examiner)- Organizing for America, the permanent incarnation of the Obama presidential campaign, has a new offer to its members: send money now and be automatically registered for a chance to win a trip to meet Barack Obama.
It will happen October 22, when Obama appears at a rally for faltering Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in Las Vegas. “The president will be kicking off the final push at a grassroots rally,” an Organizing for America email says. “We’re saving three backstage passes for supporters like you.”
Obama has been criticized for appearing at high-dollar events like a soiree at the Washington DC home of former network newswoman and White House health care spokeswoman Linda Douglass. That event cost $30,400 to attend. This one will be different. If you send in just $3 between now and 11:59 p.m. Friday, you’ll have a chance to win — air fare, hotel, and “backstage pass” to meet Obama.
And it’s even better than that. Read the fine print of the email, and you’ll see — at the bottom, just like a contest on the back of a box or a six pack of soft drinks — “No purchase or contribution necessary to enter. Void where prohibited.” Even if they don’t send in any money, winners will receive “one round-trip ticket within the continental U.S. to Las Vegas; hotel accommodations for one; and a meeting with President Obama at a rally even on 10/22/10 (approximate combined retail value $1,200.00).” The email does not specify how much of the $1,200.00 is for the plane, how much is for the hotel, and how much is for meeting Obama.

Subj: Obama Hides 2 Armies in Healthcare Bill See Video
I listened to and watched this clip with disbelief as I saw the actual wording (pages) in the health care bill that have absolutely nothing to do with health care. I'm now very concerned that Obama is in the process of creating a "personal military" for use in manipulating/controlling the general population.
This guy is becoming more devious and frightening every day....and the mainstream media has
never mentioned this clandestine scheme that has a $4 billion price tag!

Re: Obamanomics
This morning we entered the I-5 at Hermosa and headed North. A little way up, there was one of Obama's green signs about recovery.
Within a mile of that sign in any direction, there wasn't any work project. So, I figure Obama created 2 or 3 jobs just having that sign erected !!
