La Loi, C’est Obama

My article from the Dec. 24, 2013 issue of FrontPage Magazine: La Loi, C’est Obama By Matthew Vadum In a move worthy of a Third World banana republic, President Obama used his extraconstitutional lawmaking wand and secretly extended the Dec. 23 Obamacare enrollment cutoff by 24 hours, usurping the authority of Congress. This is only the latest in a long series of capricious, imperial, impeachable, ad hoc adjustments that the 44th president has made to his creation. Each and every unilateral abridgment or abrogation of the Affordable Care Act, as monstrous as the statute may be, is an affront to the rule … Continue reading La Loi, C’est Obama

ObamaCare: A Christmas Gift from the Poor to the Rich

My article from the Dec. 20, 2013 issue of FrontPage Magazine: ObamaCare: A Christmas Gift from the Poor to the Rich By Matthew Vadum The increasingly desperate Obama White House is encouraging Obamacare supporters to make Christmas a living hell for those Americans still not convinced that putting the federal government in charge of health care is a good idea.

Microsoft Hacks Into HealthCare.gov

My article from the Dec. 19, 2013 issue of FrontPage Magazine: Microsoft Hacks Into HealthCare.gov By Matthew Vadum As part of the continuing charade that Obamacare can actually be fixed, the Obama administration is hiring Microsoft Corp. executive Kurt DelBene to revamp the super-expensive, taxpayer-funded vortex of malware that is the HealthCare.gov website. It is all part of the White House’s unrelenting drive to reinforce the left-wing narrative that the misnamed Affordable Care Act can succeed without dramatically disrupting society. Americans increasingly understand that Obamacare is a deliberately cruel, cynical, Machiavellian vehicle to redistribute wealth, cripple private-sector insurance companies, and … Continue reading Microsoft Hacks Into HealthCare.gov

Sebelius: Above the Law?

My article from the Dec. 13, 2013 issue of FrontPage Magazine: Sebelius: Above the Law? By Matthew Vadum Top congressional watchdog Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) had to warn Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius this week that obstructing a congressional investigation is a federal crime. Sadly, we have reached the point in America at which members of President Obama’s cabinet aren’t even squeamish anymore about flouting court orders and legally enforceable congressional directives because they feel secure in the expectation that they will never be held to account. These Democrats know that their misdeeds will not see the light of … Continue reading Sebelius: Above the Law?
