Obama lies about his own mother to sell Obamacare
“ Once she was back in Hawaii, the hospital billed her insurance company directly leaving Ann only to pay the deductible and any uncovered expenses, which she said claimed to be several hundred dollars a month. Scott Wright said Dunham, who wanted to be compensated for those costs as well as for her living expenses. She filed a separate claim under her employer’s disability insurance policy. It was that claim with the insurance company Cigna that was declined in August 1995 because as Cigna investigators said, her condition was known before she was covered by the policy. Dunham protested the decision and informed Cigna that she was turning the case over to my son, an attorney, Barack Obama. Cigna did not budge,” Glenn continued.
“September 1995 Dunham traveled to New York for an evaluation at renowned Memorial Sloan‑Kettering. She returned to Hawaii, began a new course of treatment. She died in November. A dozen years later her son turned ordeal into a campaign pitch for national healthcare. But the story Obama told Scott Wright was abbreviated. The abbreviation was to leave out the fact that she had health insurance and it paid for her treatment. Though he often suggested that she was denied health coverage because of a preexisting condition. It appears from her correspondence in her own writing that she was only denied disability coverage. That’s a different story altogether but one that nobody in the press seems to care.”

These practices are not unique to Obama. George W. Bush also scheduled heavy travel for political purposes at taxpayer expense in the first half of 2003, as he prepared to run for reelection.
But Bush traveled a handful of times less frequently than Obama and only held four fundraisers outside Washington. He also made more purely non-political journeys than Obama, including trips to then-relatively safe GOP states like Texas, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia and flight to Illinois, a state he could not have hoped to win.

But Garver and other administration officials are getting heat from some of the most famous astronauts on the planet, not to mention members of Congress and aerospace industry executives. Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon, and someone never known to be a rabble-rouser, recently co-wrote with fellow Apollo astronauts Jim Lovell and Gene Cernan an op-ed in USA Today declaring that the space policy of the Obama administration is in “substantial disarray.” The astronauts protested the decision to kill the Constellation program, the George W. Bush-era plan for a new lunar mission with new rockets and spacecraft.
Here’s Bob Crippen, who was the pilot of the first shuttle mission, STS-1, back in 1981: “I’ve never seen NASA so screwed up as it is right now. . . . They don’t know where they’re going.”
Even one of NASA’s senior people here at the Kennedy Space Center, Mike Leinbach, the launch director who will supervise the final countdown and launch of Atlantis, has blasted his agency for the lack of direction.
“We’re all victims of poor policy out of Washington, D.C. — both at the NASA level and the executive branch of the government,” Leinbach said recently at a news conference here. He said he was “embarrassed” about the lack of guidance.
