(Washington Post) In a new video made and released by Al-Qaeda in Pakistan (which Obama claimed he has on the run) 72 year old Kidnapped American Warren Weinstein begs Obama again to negotiate with his captors, saying that he feels “totally abandoned and forgotten.”

Flashback: Remember subsequent to Hurricane Sandy while Obama was chasing votes he claimed “America’s tougher and we’re tougher because because we pull together, we leave nobody behind, we make sure we respond as a nation and remind ourselves that whenever an American is in need, all of us stand together, to make sure that we’re providing the help that is necessary.”

Riiight…

ObamaCare Website Crashed “Again” Less Than Two Hours Before Obama’s Friday Press Conference

(Washington Post) With less than 2 hours before President Obama was scheduled to give his end of the year news conference, the ObamaCare website crashed again, a message appeared saying that it was part of regularly scheduled maintenance.

After 3.50 years and $1 Billion of taxpayers money that has been spent to build the broken ObamaCare website we’re supposed to have confidence that government managed health care is somehow going to be efficient and hassle free.

Riiight…

According to Affordable Health California they claim ‘Covered California’ is simply swamped by enrollees with 53,510 signing up between 16-18 December, how many of them are Medi-Cal enrollees?

In November, California Political News reported that more than 72,000 ‘Covered California’ applicants qualify for Medi-Cal.

California Medi-CalA Deeper Look Into California Medicaid Program
‘California Common Sense’

“By enrollment, Medi-Cal is already the nations largest Medicaid program, In 2012 it covered 7.6 Million people or more than a fifth of the state’s population. As the second largest portion of the state budget and as one of the budget’s fastest growing expenses, Medi-Cal has historically been a target for cost containment–additionally, Medi-Cal’s relatively low (and still declining) reimbursement rates have discouraged more and more physicians from providing services to Medi-Cal patients, reducing access to care for many enrollees,” the exact opposite of what ObamaCare claimed that it wanted to change.

How many more ObamaCare/Medi-Cal enrollees will realize even more limited choices in the coming year with 70% of California physicians reportedly boycotting Covered California?

Uh Oh! Former Clinton Advisor James Carville: I’ve Become More Conservative as I’ve Gotten Older

James CarvilleJames Carville: Obama is Even Less Popular Than the Crack Smoking Mayor of Toronto Rob Ford –Image/Video –CNS News

(Politico) Former Clinton Advisor James Carville has dropped another zinger on Democrats and the Obama Administration recently, acknowledging that he’s beginning to see the error in his ways saying, “I do think that I’ve gotten more Conservative in some way as I’ve gotten older.”

In addition to his recent startling revelations about his own political views, Carville addressed the present day Democratic Party adding, “I do think a valid critique of Democrats or Liberal is that we seldom look at the world through the eyes of the Dry Cleaner or the guy with the Lawn Mowing service.”

President Obama maybe would benefit thinking about what Carville has said, before ‘The Obama’s” head out of Washington today for their annual luxurious 17 day Hawaiian vacation that most American’s can only dream about.
