Obamacare: Senate bill limits summary of benefits to four pages
Sadly, there is no such page limit on any version of Obamacare drafted by Congress. Sen. Reid’s (D-Nev.) version of Obamacare, however, does mandate a page limit for insurance companies, and it should prove quite interesting in its implementation.
Read MoreDemocrats refuse to point out bill sections that will improve health care
Challenge the media. Challenge your friends. Challenge the congress-critters. And yes, challenge yourself. We’ve pointed out specific sections of current health care legislation that will make things worse for Americans. We’ve given you the page numbers. We’ve told you exactly what it means and what it will do. Why don’t the statists (lefties) point out…
Read MoreReid Health Care Bill: The dissection continues – Tort Reform
This is truly priceless. How Sen. Reid (D-Nev.), or any other senator, for that matter, can propose this language with a straight face is perhaps a good indication of how bad the Senate version of Obamacare is.

Roll Call reports: “Despite promises from Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) that Sen. Arlen Specter (Pa.) would retain his seniority after switching parties, Specter will be put at the end of…

Of all the stupid idiotic things this guy says and gets away with … this was perhaps the highlight of the Sunday Morning Talk shows and, may I say, assures me of another great year on the show. David Gregory pins Harry Reid down on his ‘o6 comment, “the war is lost.” This little weasel…
