Is this the right time to "shut down" HHS? The short answer is "yes."
Understand that without funding, 200,000 of the 230,000 folks who work at HHS will continue their work . . . . . . so, there is no shutdown, in view.
Secondly, the common Democrat myth about the sequester shutdown, was the supposed "hit the GOP took" in the Democrat sponsored polls taken in early 2014. Question: if the shutdown hurt the GOP, why the most one sided election results in a hundred years, namely the 2014 midterms.
Lesson. Don't listen to the lies of those who cannot win a midterm election. The fact of the matter is this: THERE WAS NO BACKLASH TO THE GOP'S STAND ON CUTTING EXPENSES AND TAKING A STAND. NONE.
It is my hope that the House will stick to their guns and stop the over-reach of this Utopian One Worlder. Respect for law and order is much more important than some stinking Leftist poll. And the American people understand much more than folks want to believe.
The path to a landslide victory in 2016 is clear, if not predictable. In a word, it can be summed up by "anybody but Jeb Bush."
Washington Post, 2/126/2015: The last time Jeb Bush spoke at the Conservative Political Action
Conference, he delivered blunt talk — an unwelcome lecture, in the view
of many — about the problems with the Republican Party.
“All too often we’re associated with being ‘anti’ everything,” Bush said in 2013. “Way too many people believe Republicans are anti-immigrant, anti-woman, anti-science, anti-gay, anti-worker, and the list goes on.” Bush will return to the conservative gathering Friday as one of his party’s leading possible presidential candidates — but one who still needs to find the right way to connect with the conservative activists who have not joined establishment donors in an early rush to back him . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The timing is critical for Bush, 62, whose all-but-certain candidacy has attracted legions of financiers and supporters this winter. Despite his fast start, Bush is not outpacing the rest of the GOP field, and some potential rivals — particularly Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker — are gaining traction among conservatives as they begin to travel and raise money ahead of the nominating contest.
Editor's notes: What the reader might miss is the fact that the Washington Post has given the GOP candidacy to Jeb Bush with the words "all but certain candidacy," and the statement, "[he] has attracted legions of financiers and supporters." But, before the Post's editor's can get into the next paragraph, they have to admit that "Bush is not outpacing the rest of the GOP field."
Just another example of Progressive "intellectualism." What is more than humorous is the knowledge that these people will not understand the criticism, will not see the contradiction. But there it is, in black and white. Bush's candidacy is all but certain, however, he is not outpacing the GOP field.
The fact of the matter is this: Jeb has no intentions of winning the GOP nomination via conservative support within the party. We get lectured everyday by a man who does not speak above an 8th grade level (see the Politico article, here) and cannot write a budget proposal (the first president to ever fail in this regard - see "After Notes" below).
How Jeb plans on gaining the nomination without the conservative vote, is not apparent to this writer. I mean, conservatives walked away from the elections in 2006 and 2008 and, to a lesser degree, in 2012. The two elections that drew conservative support were the two recent midterms, both landslide elections for the GOP. If you understand that all elections since and including Reagan's, have been determined by the attendance or lack thereof, of the conservative membership within the GOP, you will appreciate just how critical Conservatives are to any election. No one was enthused by H Bush in his re-election bid versus Clinton., and he lost. And no one was interested in Bob Dole's campaign versus Clinton's re-election bid. and he lost
How strong is the conservative vote? Think about this: GW Bush was admired by conservatives, in spite of the fact that he often push big government legislation. And, because conservatives supported the man, the Marxist Party we like to call "The Democratic Party," could not defeat the man, in spite of record political donations into the Democrat coffers and control of the national media.
Take it to the bank: if the GOP nominates a candidate that conservatives can support, the next president will be a Republican. Hillary is an awful candidate. She has no core values, no campaign strategy that is not 1990's Democrat politics, and no record that demands our attention, and, the biggest obstacle of all: she is far from being charismatic "on the stump."
With a healthy GOP candidate, the 2016 election could be a landslide. We only hope that Obama continues to be "Obama." That will be perfect, and this editor, at least, believes that Obama can't help but be a pain, for the Democrats, in the coming election cycle.

Another article establishing climate slowdown as to warming. Always remember, "global warming" is regional warming," only and always.
Editor: Just to be clear, warming trends have leveled off as of 1998. Scientists believe the trend could go on for another 5 to 10 years. What is curious to me, is the fact that while warming is on a level trend, green house gases have continued to increase. What does this mean? Well, it can only mean one thing: the earth compensates for much of the pollution we send into the atmosphere. Last year, there was a volcanic eruption in Argentina that pumped the equivalent of the auto pollution of 150 million cars for 20 years. How many such eruptions are there, each year.
Anyway, the Daily Caller story establishes the existence of climate slowdown.
Daily Caller:
U.K. scientists are saying the so-called “pause” in global warming could continue to the end of the decade. But scientists warned of accelerated temperature rises once the global warming hiatus has ended.
For the last 15 years, global surface temperatures have not been rising nearly as fast as most climate models predicted — a period called the “pause” or “hiatus” in global warming. Scientists have offered dozens of explanations for the warming hiatus, and now U.K. scientists are saying the 15-year pause could go on for at least another five years.
Scientists with the U.K.’s Met Office, the country’s top climate agency, and the University of Exeter report there is a 25 percent chance the hiatus in warming could go on for another 5 years, and a 10 percent chance warming could be on pause for another 10 years. The study found a less than 1 percent chance of another 20 years with little to no warming.

Before Obama leaves office, he will have succeeded in his goal of allowing Iran to become a nuclear power.
Emerging deal would allow Iran nukes after ten years . . . Edging
toward a historic compromise, the U.S. and Iran reported progress
Monday on a deal that would clamp down on Tehran's nuclear
activities for at least 10 years but then slowly ease restrictions on
programs that could be used to make atomic arms. The U.S. initially
sought restrictions lasting up to 20 years; Iran has pushed for less
than a decade. The prospective deal appears to be somewhere in the
middle. One issue critics are certain to focus on: Once the deal
expired, Iran could theoretically ramp up enrichment to whatever level
it wanted. Associated Press
Hillary's War on Women is clearly framed in the disparidy between what she pays male staffers versus female staffers. Ditto Obama.
Not news. The Democrats never really solve any of the social problems they claim to care about. Why? Because if they did, they would have nothing to run on in the next election. That is why they did next to nothing in their first two years with Obama (2009/2010). They had the legislative clout to solve all domestic issues. The GOP could not have stopped them. But that would have given them nothing to run on in 2010 midterms. Didn't make much difference. They got their collective buns kicked, anyway. As to their implicit war on wages: they passed the Lilly Ledbetter Equality Wage Act, with much fan fare. Turns out, the bill solved nothing, did not resolve the inequality wage issue, and, now, the Dems are whining about the GOP because of their (Democrats) gross and repeated incompetence. But the Media plays the game and the Ignorants who vote for these people remain in self-imposed darkness.
43 burned alive near last weeks burning of 45 captives. So, how is Obama's policy of denial working out?
Fox News: The jihadist group Islamic State, or IS, burned alive on Saturday 43 people kidnapped in the western Iraqi province of Anbar, a security official told Efe.
The IS militants caged their hostages, who were mostly police and members of the pro-government Sunni militias called Salvation Councils, then set them on fire.
The radical group kidnapped the victims more than a week ago in the Al Baghdadi area of Anbar province.
Last Feb. 17, the IS executed and burned more than 40 people in the same area, most of them members of the police and the Salvation Councils.
Anbar province is largely dominated by the jihadists, and Al Baghdadi was one of the few cities where the Iraqi government was still in control.
