Interesting article in the WSJ about the similarities (actually pretty much exactly the same) between what Seblius, on behalf of HHS, is doing with respect to soliciting private money to pay "Enroll America" to advertise the benefits of Obamacare because Congress won't appropriate the money. When Olver North did it, it became the "Iran-Contra Affair."

Yet one more thing.

Wait a second, does this mean the reporters are off their knees and wiping their mouths off, and actually doing their job? HOLY SH*T about time.

Looks like HHS misplaced the memo that you can't do that... "Article I of the U.S. Constitution does not permit government officials to spend money that Congress has refused to authorize or appropriate."

I really think they are trying to ram this corruption and scandal down our throats and tell us that's how "progress" is done ("The New Normal"). When they had a compliant press it was easy to do, but now... people are starting to wake up and wipe the crust from their eyes. I just hope they have good prescription glasses to help them see a little more clearly.

I hope it's not too late.

To avoid scrutiny by appropriations committees, the administration seems to have created more czars than the Romanovs.

Nice.
