Even More Obamacare Follies

"The White House has caught some flak recently for its hesitancy about identifying the threat of Islamic extremism, but their reticence is even broader than that: They won’t even call the Taliban terrorists.

Asked why the Obama administration agreed to swap Taliban members for Bowe Bergdahl when the U.S., as a matter of national policy, doesn’t negotiate with terrorists, Schultz stumbled through explaining that the White House does not view the Taliban as “a terrorist group.” Instead, he referred to it as “an armed insurgency.”

“This was the winding down of the war in Afghanistan and that’s why this arrangement was dealt,” he told reporters on Wednesday.

He noted that the Islamic State is ”a terrorist group” but maintained that the Taliban is not."


I guess the Taliban didn't get that message.

H&R Block, the nation’s largest retail tax preparation company warns that the newly released Obamacare tax code, officially called the Affordable Care Act, is likely to confuse millions of taxpayers who try to tackle their tax returns for 2014.

“Now that the Affordable Care Act has made health care a tax issue, no one can understand it,” H&R Block flatly tells taxpayers in a video that resides on its dedicated Obamacare web site.

A former IRS Commissioner agrees, and cautions that the new tax requirements will be a “shock to the system,” especially afflicting low-income earners who have never itemized on their tax return.

APNewsbreak: Democrats seek relief from health law penalties

The official sign-up season for President Barack Obama's health care law may be over, but leading congressional Democrats say millions of Americans facing new tax penalties deserve a second chance.

Three senior House members told The Associated Press that they plan to strongly urge the administration to grant a special sign-up opportunity for uninsured taxpayers who will be facing fines under the law for the first time this year.

The three are Michigan's Sander Levin, the ranking Democrat on the Ways and Means Committee, and Democratic Reps. Jim McDermott of Washington, and Lloyd Doggett of Texas. All worked to help steer Obama's law through rancorous congressional debates from 2009-2010.

The lawmakers say they are concerned that many of their constituents will find out about the penalties after it's already too late for them to sign up for coverage, since open enrollment ended Sunday.

yay democrats!!!
