Medicare Actuary says cuts will put hospitals in the red

Mark | April 25, 2010

Well, a month or so after the democRATS passed the health care reform bill on their own (remember the only thing bipartisan about this bill was the vote against it) we find out in a report by the Medicare’s Office of the Actuary that: In particular, concerns about Medicare could become a major political liability [...]

obama’s “Health Care” Army

Mark | April 13, 2010

Do you remember during the campaign when obama said this? “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded.” Well guess what … he got it! [...]

Transparency Paradigm Shift

Mark | April 7, 2010

Here’s our government in Colorado working to shift the paradigm on transparency.    Transparency is a term that is bandied about constantly these days.  It came from folks wanting the government process to be less secretive about their machinations.  That’s a noble goal. The link above however shows our government here in CO working to [...]

Mark | April 3, 2010

Quick note here … Sarah Palin targets Markey and Salazar, both here in Colorado, for their health care reform votes.  Yes, I said targets, but not with a gun you ninnies.  

It’s not about reform, it’s about control

Mark | March 24, 2010

In my last post which was about the IRS hiring over 16,000 armed agents to enfoce this health care reform disaster I ended with this: Hmmmmmm are they building a wall to keep out the beasties?  Or is that wall being built to keep you in? Well, it seems that Rep John Dingell heard my [...]

Time to enforce your new right to health care

Mark | March 22, 2010

Many on the left fought for health care reform under the banner of civil rights.  Health care is a right. Our lefty government types agree and have secured that right for you, but not how you think. I’d like to explore this right with today’s news that the IRS will be hiring over 16,000 armed agents to enforce your new right.  [...]

Durbin Says Insurance Premiums Will Go Up Under Senate Health Plan

Mark | March 11, 2010

The democRATS say it over and over, health care reform is about affordable premiums and access.  Well according to Sen. Dick Dubin, the premiums will go up even if the Senate Health Care Reform Bill is passed. So … why would we want that bill passed?  Our favorite Botox Bela Pelosi says they have to [...]

Redistribution of Wealth Disguised as Health Care Reform in Colorado.

Mark | February 25, 2010

Health Care Reform … ain’t it grand! That grand is about what it is going to cost everyone per month for coverage starting next year when HB 1021 gets passed.  Just another mandate, just another premium increase.  No big deal, right?  I thought health insurance reform was to lower costs. This bill won’t, this bill will [...]

Colorado Health Insurance Future Revealed

Mark | February 17, 2010

Colorado’s health insurance future is revealed … and it ain’t pretty.  Now I’m no Nostradomus … I don’t even know how to spell Nostradamus, but those who live in California and have an HMO managing their health care are living our future. If we want to avoid their health insurance fate, we had better stand up, speak [...]

Lies about Bush and Healthcare

Mark | February 9, 2010

One of the things that irks me the most is ignoring the truth.  Even worse, lies.  Private health insurance has a tough enough road to hoe without its foes bending the facts.  Yet we hear it over and over.  Here is a fine example from the Lefty Martian James Carville: “It is under his disastrous [...]
