More than a mistake

Little Green Footballs:

The DNC is spinning wickedly, trying to minimize the effects of the CBS Killian memo scandal and relegate it to the nasty, but not too serious, realm of “dirty tricks”—who cares who did it, can’t we just move on?

But since the earliest days of the scandal I’ve been writing that the seriousness of this issue cannot be exaggerated. Someone, somewhere, sat down with a copy of Microsoft Word and set out to deliberately influence one of the most important elections in US history with fraudulent documents. The implications of this are huge, even if the DNC is not connected in some way.

This is why I’ve been so determined to keep the issue in the forefront. It’s not about Dan Rather, ultimately. It’s about the collusion of news media with the farthest of the far left, the new fascists who are so sure of their ideological purity that they give themselves permission to lie, cheat, steal, forge ... whatever it takes to advance their holy cause. CBS News has become so corrupted by this “true believer” mentality that their employees drive CBS News vans with anti-Bush slogans openly displayed in their front windows—at the height of the Rathergate scandal.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
