SEN. JUSTIN JONES, TASTELESS & SHAMEFUL



Yesterday morning we learned that Virginia State Senator Creigh Deeds had been stabbed in the head and chest by his son, Gus, 24, before Gus shot himself dead in the family home.  Deeds was critically injured but made it to a hospital where his condition this morning was upgraded to fair. 



And for that, we can be thankful.



However, yesterday afternoon the Washington Post reported that Gus had psychiatric problems and that on Monday a magistrate had ordered an evaluation.  But the Deeds family reportedly live in “a very rural area” where “hospitals are few and far between,” so there wasn’t a bed to immediately take the boy.



But that didn’t stop Nevada State Sen. Justin Jones (D-Mayors Against Guns), chief proponent of an anti-gun measure in the 2013 legislative session, from hopping on Twitter to make political hay of the tragedy.



At 12:48 pm, while Sen. Deeds’ life was still hanging in the balance and the motive behind the attempted murder/suicide by his son remained unclear, Jones tweeted:



“When we don't properly fund mental health, politicians are in danger, literally.”



Seriously?!!

PROJECT TO RESTORE AMERICA 11/20/2013

A Devastating Poll on Obama -- and Obamacare
By Michael Barone
Wednesday, November 20, 2013

"The Affordable Care Act's political position has deteriorated dramatically over the last week." That, coming from longtime Obamacare cheerleader and Washington Post blogger Ezra Klein, was pretty strong language. And it was only Wednesday.

That was the day after the release of a devastating Quinnipiac national poll. It showed Barack Obama's approval rating at 39 percent, with his disapproval rating at 54 percent — sharply down from 45 percent approval and 49 percent disapproval on Oct. 1, the day the government shutdown began and healthcare.gov went into (limited) operation.

Bilbray-Kohn Steals Pages from Joe Heck’s
Job Creation Handbook

In a Q&A interview with Andrew Doughman of the Las Vegas Sun, Democrat congressional candidate Erin Bilbray-Kohn coughed up a few fuzzballs.

When asked why she was running, Bilbray-Kohn said she “kept watching as my friends and neighbors were losing their homes and their jobs” while Congress, “instead of focusing on jobs and creating a more secure economy, wasn’t doing its job, and that’s what finally pushed me.”

Now, I don’t know about you, but I’m not buying that “Made in DC” cookie-cutter response for a minute.  But let’s accept it for argument’s sake.  Which raises the question I’ve asked before: 

What would Bilbray-Kohn do, as a freshman congresswoman, likely in the minority party, that would create more jobs and a more secure economy?  Inquiring minds wanna know.

This much we do know.  When Bilbray-Kohn’s party was in control of the White House, the U.S. Senate and the U.S. House of Representatives, it passed the so-called “stimulus” bill that was supposed to create jobs and a more secure economy.

THE FOUNDATION

"The essence of Government is power; and power, lodged as it must be in human hands, will ever be liable to abuse." --James Madison

GOVERNMENT & POLITICS

The Writing Is on the Wall

Ancient Babylon
It has been obvious for some time that ObamaCare is full of lies, and that one of the primary lies was this: "You can keep your plan. Period." Barack Obama "apologized" for this "misstatement," while other Democrats are torn between arguing Obama said nothing wrong and asserting that they knew all along that you couldn't keep your plan.
The latter group is far closer to the truth. Former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy unearthed a brief filed by the Justice Department in Priests for Life v HHS that acknowledges and argues for regulations that would cancel millions of insurance plans: "Even under the grandfathering provision, it is projected that more group health plans will transition to the requirements under the regulations as time goes on. Defendants [the government] have estimated that a majority of group health plans will have lost their grandfather status by the end of 2013."

Supreme Court Won’t Stop Texas Law Closing Abortion Clinics
Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia issued an opinion today indicating the Supreme Court will not get involved in a case out of Texas that has abortion facilities there appealing a law that has closed numerous abortion clinics that can’t protect women’s health.
In a big victory for pro-life advocates in Texas earlier this month, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned Judge Lee Yeakel of the Western District Court in Austin and restored key portions of a pro-life law in Texas that will ultimately stop abortions and could close abortion clinics. Abortion clinics appealed that decision to the Supreme Court and Justice Scalia issued a ruling today saying the high court will not get involved. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/19/supreme-court-wont-intervene-on-texas-law-closing-abortion-clinics/
World Watches Albuquerque, New Mexico: Will It Ban Abortions After Five Months?
After months of a fierce campaign between pro-life advocates and abortion campaigners, who have poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into keeping late-term abortions legal, voters in Albuquerque, New Mexico decide today whether or not they will ban abortions after five months.
The ban would have far-reaching effects, as it would prohibit abortions at Southwestern Women’s Options, a notorious late-term abortion facility that kills unborn babies by shooting them through the heart with poison. It is considered the largest late-term abortion facility in the United States. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/11/19/world-watches-albuquerque-new-mexico-will-it-ban-abortions-after-five-months/

The President is a Liar: President Obama did not mis-speak, nor did he get his facts wrong. The President blantantly lied to the American people. The President is a liar. Why is that so hard for some folks to say?
--With Coach Dave Daubenmire

Rising To The Level Of Their Own Destruction
The crystal clear window into liberalism and progressivism is Obama Care. With the Obama Care legislation passed only by Democrats (liberals) it is owned by Democrats lock, stock and barrel. Democrats own whatever the outcome of Obama Care will be and it will be a fitting pay back for their arrogant, know-it-all paternalism. The conservatives in the U. S. House and Senate knew what this legislation meant and not a single conservative voted for the law.......

Btw,*This is a "DAILY" Newsbriefer. "If you DON'T see one DAILY, say something". THX


And don't forget the last newsbrief at the end......and, whew, what an isuue this is!

Thank You all again......
for your kind, super-complimentary comments about our NewsBriefer. You are THE best. You humble us. May you, all patriots, our readers, partners, and theirs, etc. have a Great Thanksgiving...even if many stores seem to be turkeys in ducking it. 
Question:  We and many of our readers have the same question of you...     
     What is the big deal about you publicly releasing (not to the media) YOUR OWN, ACTUAL, reportedly sealed and vaulted at $5 million taxpayer expense, VALID, RIGHTLY-CERTIFIED as YOUR OWN "Original Hawaiian Birth Certificate" document, Mr. Obama? 
     Without it, anyone wanting to defend you does not have the definitive proof needed that you are "POTUS Eligible".  That's because BOTH of the only images seen are INVALID and/or NOT-RIGHTLY CERTIFIED..  Since neither were released by you and both done on-line, there should be no issue on your end.
    So, we urge that you release it without delay so that this matter will be promptly concluded, so that the country heals and so that we can all then move forward.  Thank You.

For November 20, 2013
Good Morning from London.
I'm over here to participate in Thursday night's Oxford Union debate.  In the meantime, two housekeeping items for you.  First, I'll be sending out the Morning Briefing the rest of the week even though I'm here.  It actually works out well.  I can get up here by 9am and its still 4am in Macon.  Second, as we do each year Thanksgiving week, we will be running the Morning Briefing as needed.  If there's big news, you'll get the Morning Briefing, but otherwise all of you and I are traveling and cooking this week and the news slows down.  I will brief you on anything important that happens, otherwise enjoy your family next week.
Take care,

1.  Collapse of the Leviathan
106,000 Americans have put an Obamacare plan in their shopping cart on one of the state or federal Affordable Care Act websites. It is not that 106,000 people have paid for a healthcare plan. The federal government has decided to tabulate those who have paid for an account and those who have merely selected an account without checking out from the website as having gotten a healthcare plan.
Less than 27,000 have actually checked out from the federal government’s own healthcare exchange website. Meanwhile, 5 million Americans have lost healthcare coverage thanks to the Affordable Care Act. It will, we now know, take longer to get the website fixed than it took to win World War II — and even then the Obama Administration intends to consider it a success if only 80% of Americans can log on. Imagine if Amazon.com considered it a success if only 80% of its customers could check out. . . . please click here for the rest of the post
