Decisive action on the VA
Two decades ago, I had the pleasure of working with a Viet Nam vet while lobbying on health care rationing for the National Right to Life Committee. He told me then that the Veterans Administration health care system was awful and he avoided it like the plague. When he told me that, I just assumed […]

Costs, benefits, and private parts
*Disclaimer, some of this post talks about medical exams on female genitalia. If that’s gonna bother you, go check out this post. No hoohas there. Yesterday, I came across an article on a study by the Annals of Internal Medicine on the efficacy — or lack there of — of routine pelvic exams. The study […]

D-Day
Today is the last day to sign up for health insurance to be covered by the original January 1 deadline set by Obamacare. Things are changing day by day, so that deadline — at least for the purposes of getting hit with the tax — is probably not valid. Although if you are relying on […]

And on Mother’s Day weekend. And the Arlington Homeschool Book Fair. (I’d miss Miller […]

Scandalapalooza
Wow. Yesterday was one for the history books. In one day we learned: We learned that the Benghazi talking points were lies.

Holy Health-Care, Batman!
Here’s a bill I could actually support. It addresses the actual problem of health insurance affordability while not imposing huge economic burdens or more government bureaucracies. Also, ONE PAGE LONG! Woo-hoo! Won’t have any “read the bill” problems there. No, it doesn’t address everything wrong with the health care system, and there would probably still […]

Oh, health care
Nineteen ninety-four, the year of HillaryCare, was my first summer as an intern at National Right to Life Committee. That was a very busy summer fighting government rationing healthcare, taxpayer funded abortion on demand, involuntary euthanasia through the denial of life saving treatments, good times. (Okay, so I mainly made copies and stuffed envelopes. Papercuts! […]
