Four Days late and a few Sound Bites Short

CBS finally reports on Johnathan Gruber's admission that Obamacare was passed by with holding information from voters.
Of course they left out the "stupid voter" comment because leftist elites (like the boobs that run CBS) agree with that sentiment.
Face it, the only reason they finally covered it is because it's becoming a bigger story than they can ignore.
Is it any wonder that Obama wants to move to regulate the internet?

More Media Deception

The deceitful leftist media has always had high praise for Sharyl Attkisson when she investigated Republicans questionable actions. As it should be.
The purpose of a fair and neutral press is supposed to be able to inform us, the voters, about politicians and whether they are representing us and our values. It's why the first amendment of our constitution exists.

Surprisingly they're not nearly as generous with her attempts to investigate Benghazi or Fast and Furious.The lapdog media will do anything they can to shield the Obamessiah.
Like Candy Crowley dropping to her knees to service Obama during his debate against Romney.
Attkisson says that CBS had the proof that Romney was right but then held onto it till after the election.
So as not to reflect poorly on the community organizer.

EPA Prepares to Lower the Hammer

So for the last week or so Obama and the democrats have been directing the propaganda arm of the democrat party (ABC, NBC, CBS and lesser watched networks...MSNBC,CNN well you know who they are) to really bang away at the whole "global warming" or "climate change" or whatever thing they're calling it this week in advance of the EPA's big announcement.
Really cracking down on the whole carbon thingy.

President Obama’s big carbon crackdown readies for launch

The EPA will launch the most dramatic anti-pollution regulation in a generation early next month, a sweeping crackdown on carbon that offers President Barack Obama his last real shot at a legacy on climate change — while causing significant political peril for red-state Democrats.
The move could produce a dramatic makeover of the power industry, shifting it away from coal-burning plants toward natural gas, solar and wind. While this is the big move environmentalists have been yearning for, it also has major political implications in November for a president already under fire for what the GOP is branding a job-killing “War on Coal,” and promises to be an election issue in energy-producing states such as West Virginia, Kentucky and Louisiana.
The EPA’s proposed rule is aimed at scaling back carbon emissions from existing power plants, the nation’s largest source of greenhouse gases. It’s scheduled for a public rollout June 2, after months of efforts by the administration to publicize the mounting scientific evidence that rising seas, melting glaciers and worsening storms pose a danger to human society.
“This rule is the most significant climate action this administration will take,” said Kyle Aarons at the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, one of a host of groups awaiting the rule’s release. Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) has urged the EPA to “go ahead boldly” with the rule, saying the agency must step in where Congress has refused to act.
But for coal country, the rule is yet another indignity for an industry already facing a wave of power plant shutdowns amid hostile market forces and a series of separate EPA air regulations. Coal-state Democrats like West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin have joined the criticism, echoing industry warnings that the fossil fuel was crucial to keeping the lights on in much of the U.S. during this past brutal winter.~snip~

Leave it to democrats and Obama to try and solve a problem that doesn't exist. So much easier to solve those than trying to stimulate the economy so the middle class won't cease to exist as we know it.
Oh hell...putting together a coherent foreign policy is next to impossible without a solution to the dreaded carbon footprint.

The only problem is that it's based on something the current administration knows all to well.
A lie.

Where Did ’97 Percent’ Global Warming Consensus Figure Come From?

~snip~But Cook’s 97 percent consensus claim was rebutted in subsequent analyses of his study. A paper by five leading climatologists published in the journal Science and Education last year found that Cook’s study misrepresented the views of most consensus scientists.

The definition Cook used to get his consensus was weak, the climatologists said. Only 41 out of the 11,944 published climate studies examined by Cook explicitly stated that mankind caused most of the warming since 1950 — meaning the actual consensus is 0.3 percent.

“It is astonishing that any journal could have published a paper claiming a 97% climate consensus when on the authors’ own analysis the true consensus was well below 1%,” said Dr. David Legates, a geology professor at the University of Delaware and the study’s lead author.~snip~

Workers and consumers are going to both take a hit from Obama's EPA one will lose jobs and income the other will see rates rise.
All for a "consensus" of .3%.

It just gets better and better don't it?
 

CBS:Obamacare Enrollees an Urban Legend

It must be really bad when even Obamas lickspittle subservient cheerleaders in the liberal/commie media can't even put a positive spin on Obamacare's failed rollout.
Their problem is that they really can't find anyone who has successfully navigated the online sign up. Mostly because,like most government programs, incompetent and lazy partisan civil servants are running it.

Even some of the kossacks are beginning to notice the downside of Obama's signature legislation. What's really hilarious in the comments is the way the guy is being attacked for simply reporting on his experience with his insurance company because they had to adjust his premiums,upwards,in order to comply with Obamacare.
If it wasn't so sad it would be funny that even the most ardent kool-aide drinkers can't ignore the obvious.
Putting government in charge of healthcare is a failure waiting to happen.

Even Obama's Media See's It

I was really surprised to see CBS covering the slow demise of America's middle class this evening.

Middle-class Americans see their incomes drop

(CBS News) ARLINGTON, Texas - In the presidential campaign, both candidates have made the election all about the middle class.
A report out Wednesday from the Pew Research Center shows us why so many members of that class are frustrated -- their net worth has dropped dramatically since the Great Recession. About 85 percent say it is more difficult than it was a decade ago to make ends meet.
The study of middle-class Americans, like New Jersey garage owner John O'Connor, looked at households with incomes ranging from $39,000 to $118,000.
New Jersey garage owner John O'Connor said the American dream is still intact, but the road to getting has gotten bumpier.
"We don't dine out." he said. "We don't go to the movies the way we used to. Like everybody, I think we've become more frugal," said O'Connor.
Between 2000 and 2010, median middle-class wealth dropped 28 percent from about $130,000 to $93,000. Lower real estate values played a big part. About 42 percent said their financial situation is worse now than before the Great Recession.
"This is the first decade in the post-World War II era where the middle class -- indeed all families -- have actually less income at the end of the decade than they had at the beginning of the decade," said Paul Taylor, who co-authored the report.
The study also found the percentage of Americans in the middle class fell from 61 percent in 1971, to 51 percent now. 

Of course they avoided showing the steep decline over the last 4 years while Obama has been steering the ship into the rocks.

While Obama, the lick-spittle liberal media and the democrats have been distracting people with Sandra Fluke, Romney's taxes, Chick-fil-a and Rep Akins idiotic statements the public at large has been losing financial ground and the security they once had.

We're all being cheated by the lapdog media and their democrat handlers, just out of earshot Romney/Ryan say they have solutions to the decline of Americas middle class. Yet we can't hear them over the constant shrill outrage of the liberal progressives about every distraction they can manufacture. 

Simply because they have no plans...no solutions...nothing but their record for the last 4 years and they sure don't want to talk about that.
