While the Supreme Court upheld the ObamaTax mandate which will increase taxes mostly on those making less than $100,000, one other portion of the ruling disallows the Federal Government from defunding states that refuse to expand Medicaid. The way the ObamaTax law was written, if a state refuses to expand Medicaid to take in far […]

Did you hear the latest on Massachusetts “Conservative” Senator Scott Brown? He is all in on Obama’s unconstitutional recess appointment of Richard Cordray as head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. And he is getting some positive press from supporting Obama here. Unfortunately, it is from the Huffington Post. GOP leaders bitterly accused the president of […]
