As the implementation of Obamacare rolls into high gear, we’ve been given insight into how it will be implemented in general. On January 20, the Department of Health and Human Services announced that it would not exempt health plans provided by non-profit religious employers from the requirement to provide “contraceptive services.” … Today the department is announcing that the final rule on preventive health services will ensure that women with health insurance coverage will have access to the full range of the Institute of Medicine’s recommended preventive services, including all FDA -approved forms of contraception.

Appearing as a guest on Wednesday's The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC, Time contributor and MSNBC analyst Toure asserted that Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain “serves a massive psychological purpose” for the GOP as he offers a “Herman Cain card” that can be used by Republicans when they are accused of racism. He went on to charge that Cain is “giving comfort to racism.” Below is a transcript of the relevant exchange from the Wednesday, November 2, The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC: TOURE, TIME CONTRIBUTOR: But this is a major moment for the GOP because Cain is a really important candidate – perhaps more important than any of the other candidates – because he serves a massive psychological purpose because there's a lot of people in the GOP who have been critical of Obama and have been made to feel that they are racist because of their criticism

Liberals had a dim view of Herman Cain’s character long before this week. They automatically ascribed bad motives to him and to his GOP supporters.

There they go again. The American left, caught in the act of brandishing their electronic rope for yet another conservative black man, is busy dodging their long and horrendous history of racism

Left-wing actor Sean Penn slimed the Tea Party as motivated by racism, charging on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight on Friday evening that an impediment to President Obama’s success is “what I call the ‘Get the N-word out of the White House party,’ the Tea Party.” At a time when Herman Cain tops polls of Republican primary voters, Penn proceeded to allege, without citing any evidence, that “there’s a big bubble coming out of their heads saying, you know, ‘can we just lynch him?’” (video below) In between Penn’s two jabs intended to discredit the Tea Party, Piers Morgan helpfully boasted of how actor Morgan Freeman, on his show three weeks ago, “was very passionate about that very subject, saying there are elements of the Tea Party who just, as he said, want to get the black man out of the White House. He said it on this show.” Audio: MP3 clip which matches the video Indeed, Piers Morgan’s program has become the place for celebrities to disparage the Tea Party. As recounted by NB’s Noel Sheppard, on the September 23 show, Morgan Freeman asserted the Tea Party’s attitude is “we’re going to do whatever we can to get this black man outta here.” The night before, actor Alan Cumming of The Good Wife , denounced the Tea Party as driven by “homophobia and racism.” Of course, Penn is not opposed to all protest movements: “I applaud the spirit of what’s happening now on Wall Street.” From the pre-recorded interview on the Friday, October 14 Piers Morgan Tonight on CNN: SEAN PENN: I would love to see Barack Obama be Bulworth

My further thoughts on J. Christian Adams’ book Injustice, which paints the Obama/Holder Justice Department and especially the Civil Rights Division as a place of reckless lawlessness.

Radical Islam, black racism, illegal immigration, the anti-war, gay and women’s rights movements are all just useful tools exploited by a much bigger plot against America. Obama is the face on the movement, but al-Mansour is the brains and money behind the movement. International Saudi powerbroker Dr

Morgan Freeman, in an interview to be aired on CNN Friday evening, says that President Obama has made racism worse in America. Chatting with Piers Morgan, the Oscar-winning actor also blames the Tea Party saying they're “going to do whatever [they] can to get this black man outta here” (video follows with transcript and commentary): PIERS MORGAN, HOST: Has Obama helped the process of eradicating racism, or has it in a strange way made it worse. MORGAN FREEMAN: Made it worse.

Obama’s presidency lurches from fad to fad — from gays in the military to “green jobs” to the “Buffett rule.” Hyped as a profound presidency, it has turned out to be an embarrassingly frivolous one.

From The Blaze: Remember in July when President Obama told a Latino rights group that he wished he could “bypass” Congress in order to get things done? Here’s a refresher: Well if you thought that was just an anomaly, or an off-the-cuff remark, you may want to think again.  On Wednesday, Obama repeated the sentiments [...]

From Townhall.com: A little over two years ago, a black man educated at Ivy League schools was democratically elected to the most powerful office in the world. Most people saw the election of Obama to the U.S. presidency as decisive evidence that affirmative action policies are no longer necessary, if they ever were. Obama seemed [...]

From CNSNews.com: In at least three court cases, President Obama’s Justice Department has argued in favor of federal law enforcement officers using race as a factor in determining whether to stop someone for a suspected immigration violation.

From CNSNews.com: Alan Keyes, a conservative activist and former diplomat, said Wednesday that President Barack Obama and liberals in Congress are promoting a dependence on government that mirrors slavery.

From NewsMax.com: Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich slammed the Obama administration’s firing of a USDA official Sunday as a panicky response that shows they’re not prepared for the big issues facing the nation. “If the Obama administration is this afraid of Glenn Beck, how do they deal with the Iranians?” Gingrich asked on “Fox News [...]

From Human Events: The Democrats are depressed about their collapsing poll numbers, so it’s time to start calling conservatives “racist.” As we now know from the Journolist list-serv, where hundreds of liberal journalists chat with one another, and which was leaked to Daily Caller this week, journalists cry “racism” whenever they need to distract from [...]

From Human Events: President Obama was supposed to be post racial. When you ask him, he says, he doesn’t believe the attacks on him are racial. But everyone from his wife to the head of the NAACP tells it another way. They believe any attack on the President is racist or racial. Dick Morris calls [...]

From Right Wing News: One of the more bizarre tics of liberal thinking on foreign policy is that they believe everyone in the world is basically just like us. They believe they have roughly the same hopes, dreams, concerns and way of looking at the world. So, since they believe they think the way we [...]
