[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] The Democrats' new healthcare slogan, "Make America Sick Again," is a clunker with a majority of voters, according to fresh data from a Republican pollster.
The national survey, conducted for a GOP political group, asked 1,000 likely voters if they agree that, "If Republicans repeal the Affordable Care Act, it will make America sick again." Overall, only 32.1 percent of voters agreed, including, at 57.1 percent, a majority of Democrats; 64.8 percent of Independents disagreed, as did 85.9 percent of Republicans.
"Nearly 70 percent of respondents support repeal of ACA with a realistic modest transition period and letting people keep their coverage while they wait for the new law to be in place," read the polling memo prepared for American Action Network, a political nonprofit organization aligned with House Republican leaders. Even Democrats support this by a [48 percent to 43 percent] margin. Additionally, respondents disagree with the Democratic claim that if Republicans repeal ACA that it will make America sick again."

That's true, for a certain definitian of bipartisan that means completely mono-partisan.
[BREITBART] House Minority Leader Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. Formerly Speaker of the House, but it's not her fault they lost. Really. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace... (D-CA) now says the process of passing Obamacare ... aka the Affordable Care Act, an ineptly designed and worse executed piece of legislation designed to bring 17 percent of the U.S. economy under the direct control of the government. The previous iteration, known as Hillarycare, was laughed out of Washington. This stinker was passed on a party-line vote without being read... in 2010 was "bipartisan," and that only "tweaks" were made to the healthcare law using the reconciliation budgetary process.
Pelosi’s comments come as Republicans and President-elect Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... begin the process of repealing President Barack Obama If you like your coverage you can keep it... ’s signature legislation.
Obamacare passed in the House on March 21, 2010 with no Republican votes in favor of it and 34 Democrats voting against it.

Uninterrupted stinky politix by the Dem establishment. [POLITICO] Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower. offered an explicit warning to Republicans on Monday, saying Democrats are willing to slow down confirmation hearings for Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... 's Cabinet until potential nominees finish independent ethics reviews.
Democrats cannot stop Trump's Cabinet with filibusters, thanks to a rules change they pushed through in 2013, but they can prolong the process for weeks by forcing the GOP to burn through extra time before final floor votes are scheduled. Schumer suggested that such a delay could be in the offing.
"To spend an extra day or two on each nominee; even if it takes several weeks to get through them all in order to carefully consider their nominations...that’s well worth it," he said.

Just wait till Trump starts calling him names again. Stinky politics. Stinky Schumer. Yeah, I can see that becoming the Next Big Meme.
[DAILYCALLER] Outgoing White House staff and President B.O.-appointees are struggling to find new work after Donald Trump ...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States... and Republicans generally swept into office last November.
Thousands of Obama loyalists are struggling to find work in a city now dominated by the GOP, according to a report from Politico. "It feels like there are just thousands of us trying to find a job, and there are no jobs," Mira Patel, a longtime Clinton aide told Politico.
Democratic operatives and Obama staffers no longer have the more than 4,000 presidential appointed jobs to transition to after President-elect Trump takes office.
Politico describes how a generation of young operatives from the Hillary Clinton ... former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, sometimes described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world, usually described by the rest of us as a crook... campaign and failed down-ballot races are still managing their "shock and grief" from Clinton’s loss.

Better start getting in shape if you want to be a delivery driver these days. You may find yourself taking 100 pound packages to the third floor by stair wells, and that's rough even with a dolly.

I know of a prideful Yale grad, east coaster, upwardly mobile snobbish WH worker who found work in administration, at U of Idaho.
The joke involving his equally annoying wife during introductions...
"Where are you from?"
"Idaho."
"Yes, but where do you live?"

There are no jobs? Thought there were all kinds of jobs created by Obama. You mean these were fake jobs and numbers? Shame on you. You might be able to cobble together two or three jobs to make ends meet if you have any skills. It'll be O.K., you still have ObamaCare for awhile.

This is sort of like what happened in Silly Con Valley when the dot com bust happened and the "$33,000.00 a year to manage the coffee room" jobs dried up.

There are petrochemical and construction jobs available. Soon, there will be auto industry jobs available. Oh, those jobs are beneath you? Sucks to be you.

See war crime footage can you imagine having proof and signatures and orders and interviews and on the record testimony!
[Free Beacon] The Obama administration has paid Iran more than $10 billion in gold, cash, and other assets since 2013, according to Iranian officials, who disclosed that the White House has been intentionally deflating the total amount paid to the Islamic Republic.
Senior Iranian officials late last week confirmed reports that the total amount of money paid to Iran over the past four years is in excess of $10 billion, a figure that runs counter to official estimates provided by the White House.
The latest disclosure by Iran, which comports with previous claims about the Obama administration obfuscating details about its cash transfers to Iran--including a $1.7 billion cash payment included in a ransom to free Americans--sheds further light on the White House’s back room dealings to bolster Iran’s economy and preserve the Iran nuclear agreement.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Ghasemi confirmed last week a recent report in the Wall Street Journal detailing some $10 billion in cash and assets provided to Iran since 2013, when the administration was engaging in sensitive diplomacy with Tehran aimed at securing the nuclear deal.
Ghasemi disclosed that the $10 billion figure just scratches the surface of the total amount given to Iran by the United States over the past several years.
"I will not speak about the precise amount," Ghasemi was quoted as saying in Persian language reports independently translated for the Washington Free Beacon.
The $10 billion figure is actually a "stingy" estimate, Ghasemi claimed, adding that a combination of cash, gold, and other assets was sent by Washington to Iran’s Central Bank and subsequently "spent."
"This report is true but the value was higher," Ghassemi was quoted as saying.
