Projected Obamacare Exchange Premiums Lower Than Expected

May 24, 2013 No Comments by

Okay, repeat after me: “Don’t, don’t don’t, don’t believe the hype!” Yes, there’s been a lot of talk about rising premiums and how Obamacare has made things so expensive that employers are now forced to cut the hours of low-wage workers. Well, newsflash: it isn’t even 2014, and the exchanges haven’t even been set up [...]

Papa John’s Pizza Set to Reduce Workers Hours Because of Obama Win

Nov 10, 2012 6 Comments by

A couple of days ago I wrote about the Las Vegas small business owner who said he had to fire 22 employees because President Barack Obama was re-elected. As evidenced by the many threats levied by various business owners prior to the election, many business owners are using Obama’s re-election as an excuse to sever [...]

Las Vegas Employer: “Obama Won, So I Fired 22 Employees”

Nov 08, 2012 8 Comments by

So, over $1 billion dollars was spent this election cycle to put President Barack Obama — a black man — out of a job. Still think there’s no need for Affirmative Action? Yep, think about that one for a while, folks. Speaking of which, CBS Las Vegas is reporting what I think to be a [...]

Paul Ryan Says “It’s About Opportunities, Not Outcomes,” But For Who?

Aug 14, 2012 1 Comment

Last weekend, when Paul Ryan spoke in Virginia after being introduced as Mitt Romney’s running mate and said, “It’s about opportunities, not outcomes,” it really stood out to me. In my opinion, nothing he said before or after that line matters. For me, that very line essentially framed the debate that is who is best [...]

Ann Coulter: Obama’s Democratic Base are “Stupid Single Women”

Aug 09, 2012 4 Comments

I suppose there’s a new definition of stupid. A definition that certainly doesn’t describe any woman opposed to the benefits of access to health care under the Affordable Care Act, which is otherwise affectionately known as ‘Obamacare’. I mean that’s what I think when I listened to Ann Coulter as she spoke to Fox’s Sean [...]

When Mitt Romney Spoke at the NAACP Convention, Dead Slaves Laughed

Jul 13, 2012 15 Comments

Mitt Romney gave a speech at the NAACP National Convention in Houston this week, and told black people to look into his heart. Sorry Mr. Tin Man, but that’s the same thing they said before the slave ships set sail, so I’m not buying it. Since then, the focus has been on his use of [...]

Jun 30, 2012 5 Comments

I never thought I’d ever see the day that members of the Republican party would take a stand, and fight for freeloaders who refuse to, well, be responsible. You know, the, “pull yourself up by your bootstraps,” and do the big boy thing that is purchasing health care coverage once ‘Obamacare’ goes into effect in [...]

Supreme Court Rules Health Care Law Constitutional, Obama Wins, & Republicans are Idiots

Jun 29, 2012 4 Comments

If anybody knows about what it’s like to be denied for having a “pre-existing condition”, it’s black folks here in America. So what did the Supreme Court do yesterday? They basically upheld a Health Care law that was ironically signed by the U.S. President with a melanin affliction. A pretty “big fucking deal,” as touted [...]

South Carolina Pushes Abortion Ban for Low-Income Victims of Rape & Incest

Apr 27, 2012 5 Comments

It looks like my right-wing friends in South Carolina are up to their usual foolishness again. This time, apparently an unborn fetus has more rights than a woman (or child) reliant on the state health insurance system — you know, mostly low-income women who happen to be a victims of rape, or incest? And, to [...]
