President Obama’s health care situation has been causing problems for many people, but the government might have found a solution to the issue. The House passed a bill which will restore people’s health care policies that have been canceled due to ObamaCare. The bill passed with 261-157 vote. Out of those votes, 39 Democrats voted “yes” to approve the Republican-sponsored bill. The bill will allow insurance companies to sell old plans to customers who were insured previously for a year longer than the bill President Obama announced Thursday. Obama’s plan would only go into effect for those customers enrolled in the plans before the cancellation notices were issued.
First and foremost, I despise this dude with all my heart and soul– but this is just straight up comedy to me. Former Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney posted a flick to Twitter of his wife, Ann Romney, with their granddaughter and a little adorable chocolate baby boy. Now clearly, Mitt knows damn well that little chunky ball of joy is NOT his grandson, but he still had to go there anyways. He captions the pic, “Our 22nd grandchild was officially adopted today: Kieran James Romney.” BOY BYE! Check out the Tweet in the gallery.
You would think that when your father, a US Congressman, gets elected to office, that you should probably watch what you say on the internet. I suppose Arizona Republican Senator Jeff Flake never sat down with his son to school him on what to say. His 15 year old son goes by the name of “N1ggerkiller” when playing iPhone games and also has been known to tweet some of the racist isn. He also posted a video of him fake killing himself. The point of this story? His father, who votes on actual laws in this country, is still in office. Can we really trust someone who can’t even keep his own son in line? And it’s not only Flake’s son; this is a problem across the Republican Party. Check out the video and the article after the jump.
After many unanswered requests from Republican lawmakers to have, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the one remaining suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing, they finally got a response. It didn’t work well in their favor, seeing as those lawmakers requested that Tsarnaev be seen as an enemy combatant. After seeing a federal judge in the hospital, where he remains in critical condition, Tsarnaev got the news. Even though he is only able to communicate via writing, Tsarnaev still has not entered any plea. White House Press Secretary Jay Carney states, “He will not be treated as an enemy combatant.” Carney made it even more clear by adding, “We will prosecute this terrorist through our civilian system of justice.” I mean what would the military do to this guy that the civilian system wouldn’t do? Drop down bottom and check out the White House’s reasoning.
