A member of Corey's own team was fired and is now suing her office after he testified that prosecutors had kept evidence from O'Mara. Not So Fast: Congress Is Still in an Obamacare Trap Lawmakers and staff can breathe easy — their health care tab is not going to soar next year. The Office of Personnel Management, under heavy pressure from Capitol Hill, will issue a ruling that says the government can continue to make a contribution to the health care premiums of members of Congress and their aides, according to several Hill sources. A White House official confirmed the deal and said the proposed regulations will be issued next week. - New York Times Yet a detailed analysis of this issue by Heritage Foundation experts found that the Office of Personnel Management does not have the legal authority to do what the Obama Administration promised Congress last night. House Votes to Bar I.R.S. Action on Health Law Under the (curent) law, the I.R.S. will play a key role. It will provide tax credits to low- and moderate-income people to help them buy private insurance.

“ Amen I say to you; if serpents dwell in your house do you not  cast them into a pit and blowtorch them?  McCain is the greatest disappointment in Republican history......what has he accomplished? 1. He ruined Palin's political potential 2. He ushered in the absolute worse Prez inAmerican history 3. He is the leading proponent in amnesty for Illegals 4. He has given the enemy more comfort than any other Republican in history. And the list is very much longer......he will never make it through another election after he lied to his constituents concerning Illegas in his state......he has reversed every stand that got him squeaky by last election.
