Health Care Law’s Achilles Heel? A Growing Legal Morass
There are a number of well-kept secrets about the health care law, but I think the increasing legal morass has become the most important. “Morass” is a negative word: A growing number of citizens, businesses, and the state of Oklahoma have turned to the court system to seek relief. This means Americans are – or […]
NEGOP: Help us understand how you differ from Democrats
I am in receipt of your recent Chairman's Report update, and would like to report an injury; I have some bruising of the chin area, sustained when my jaw hit the floor from incredulity.
