EXCLUSIVE: Palin -- Bombs Away on Obamacare; Cruz Is over the Target
Americans who are fed up with Obamacare won a victory yesterday. The House voted to defund Obamacare while still funding the federal government to avoid a “devastating” shutdown. (I shall not digress, but it’s beyond distressing to hear liberals try to convince Americans that any government slowdown is comparable to “terrorism.”)
Now the battle goes to the Senate, and we’ll find out if Harry Reid is so committed to the horrendous “Un-affordable Care Act” that he’ll be the one to shut down the government to fund the unworkable Obamacare.Let’s be clear. Republicans in Congress aren't advocating a government shutdown. That’s why they voted in the House to fully fund our bureaucracy while defunding Obamacare. The conservatives in Congress are listening to the majority of Americans who do not want Obamacare.
Following the will of the people is apparently a novel idea in D.C. these days. Just ask Senator Ted Cruz and his liberty-loving posse on Capitol Hill who have led the charge to defund Obama’s train wreck.
Those of us who hang in there supporting a major political party with our energy, time, and contributions would like to believe that that party would praise principled conservatives like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee for following through on campaign promises. We’d like to believe that the GOP establishment would applaud the way these bold leaders have rallied the grassroots to their cause. But, no, such praise would require a commensurate level of guts and leadership, and the permanent political class in D.C. is nothing if not gutless and rudderless.
We’re now, once again, subjected to the “anonymous sources” backstabbing game. The Capitol Hill cowards are rushing to anonymously denounce Senator Cruz to any reporter with a pad and pen.
Welcome to our world, Ted. The same people have been denouncing conservatives like me for years (right after they ask for help fundraising for themselves or endorsing the latest candidate they’ve suckered into paying their exorbitant consulting fees). We can compare shiv marks next time we meet, my friend.
If the Senate doesn’t get behind Ted Cruz’s efforts to defund Obamacare, it won’t be because of any failure on Ted’s part. It’ll be because there weren’t enough principled leaders to stand with him, and that would be a tragic loss, not for Ted, but for America.
More and more Americans are waking up to the nightmare of Obamacare as its rollout continues. Hardworking families are losing their employer-provided health care coverage. Businesses are cutting back their employees’ hours to skirt Obamacare’s mandates. Americans barely scrapping by are discovering that Obamacare has made health care completely unaffordable. Those who aren’t part of a protected special interest group have been left in the cold.
When you’re living on a fixed income, having to pay hundreds of dollars more each month for health care will cut into your ability to pay for basic necessities like food, electricity, or gas (which has increased 90% under Obama). Open your eyes, America. When the full reality of Obamacare strikes home, we’ll thank God that principled leaders like Ted Cruz and Mike Lee took a stand to stop it in its tracks.
But the permanent political class is handwringing and howling that if there’s a government shutdown the media will blame Republicans for it. Here’s a little newsflash, GOP establishment: Whenever anything bad happens, the media blames Republicans for it. That’s not an excuse to roll over and play dead. It’s a call to follow the advice I give my daughters: Woman up, stand your ground, and fight like a girl!
I want no pity. I need no empathy. But use me as a barometer. Over the years, the leftwing media has falsely and irrationally accused me of everything from faking a pregnancy to abetting murder. They lie. Deal with it.
Republicans in Congress support funding the government. If the Democrats block these funding measures, a government shutdown is on them. In the meantime, stop the ridiculous hysterics. Heck, about the most significant thing that happened during the last government shutdown was Clinton hooked up with Monica.
As I said in my speech at CPAC this year, it’s time for the Senate to put itself on Cruz Control.
Ignore the peanut gallery pundits. They’ve written my political obituary so many times, I’m practically Lazarus. Now they’re trying to destroy Ted Cruz. Good luck with that, you weasels. Texans are just as tough as Alaskans. Smaller, but just as tough.
But here’s the important thing that none of these establishment backstabbers understand. It’s not the messenger that matters. It’s the message. You can try to take out someone like Ted Cruz, but that won’t stop the message from catching fire. The message is liberty, and it’s been resounding ever since a band of patriots dumped tea in Boston harbor.
The message only grows stronger. The grassroots is bigger than any one person. We the People will rise up, and we will make our voices heard. Right now, Ted Cruz is speaking for us in this Obamacare fight. God bless him for it.
Hang in there, Ted and Mike. You have millions of supporters among ordinary hardworking Americans. We support you because you don’t shy away from the fray. May your colleagues in the Senate gain the wisdom to support your excellent efforts so that you can see that the view is better from inside the bus than under it.
Oh, and a little reminder to Republican senators up for re-election in 2014: Moose season ends soon, allowing more time on one’s hands. So, we’ll be watching your votes very carefully this week.

Ted Cruz’s Gutsy Plan to Defeat Democrat Majority in Senate Sets Stage for Huge Obamacare Showdown
After the House of Representatives easily passed a continuing resolution that strips Obamacare of all funding on Friday, the bill now heads to the U.S. Senate where Democrats are eager to restore the flow of dollars to President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul.However, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) may have one more trick up his sleeve.
The Texas Republican is calling for “unity” within the GOP and asking senators to oppose limiting debate on the bill, preventing Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid from using “procedural gimmicks” to add Obamacare funding back in. In other words, filibuster the continuing resolution.

I would have felt a lot better if LSU defense would have
played a better football game against Auburn. But what this LSU football
team is able to accomplished is still very satisfying and as it stands
right now LSU 4-0 will read undefeated in everyone book.
Auburn ran the football between LSU defensive tackles,
straight up the LSU middle, that had the LSU fans worried right on up
until the last few minuets of the LSU vs Auburn football game. So I was
hoping to see a stronger purple and gold defensive line, especially from the LSU defensive Tackles and Ends, ( too much arm tackling ) but even with
that unfulfilled defensive wish, Jeremy Hill made up for a lot.-------------------

Jeremy Hill rushed for three touchdowns in LSU's 35-21 win over Auburn.Tags: Jeremy Hill
His offseason arrest aside, there is no denying what a game-changer the explosive, 6-foot-2, 235-pound running back can be for the surging sixth-ranked Tigers, who have quickly re-established their credentials as contenders in the Southeastern Conference.

Hill was quick to deflect some of the credit to LSU's young offensive line for opening "gaping holes."
"It was just up to me to make a couple of guys miss," Hill added.
Even Hill's defensive teammates talked about being "pumped up" on the sideline as they watched Hill tear off big runs.
"For him to be that big and run that fast, it's ridiculous," LSU cornerback Jalen Mills said.
Tre Mason rushed for 132 yards and had two short touchdown runs in the third quarter for Auburn (3-1, 1-1 SEC), the second cutting LSU's lead to 28-14.
Zach Mettenberger responded with his only touchdown pass of the night -- a 32-yarder to Jarvis Landry -- early in the fourth quarter as LSU (4-0, 1-0) dimmed Auburn's hopes for a comeback.
Mettenberger was 14 of 22 for a season-low 229 yards. He also threw his first interception of the season, but it wasn't that costly as LSU's 228 yards rushing helped it stay in control for most of the game.
Auburn's Nick Marshall was 17-of-33 passing for 224 yards and was intercepted twice. He also rushed for 46 yards.
Although LSU raced to a three-touchdown lead, Auburn refused to fold. Auburn pulled within two scores on Cameron Artis-Payne's 12-yard touchdown run with 6:33 left, then nearly pulled off a successful onside kick. Auburn recovered, but on replay review was deemed to have touched the ball before it went the requisite 10 yards.
"Our kids didn't quit and they're not going to quit," first-year Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said. "I'm very proud of our guys and with that attitude they'll have a chance to improve."
Auburn already appears substantially better than last season, when it won three games all year and went winless in the SEC.
LSU coach Les Miles applauded his team's fast start and its timely answers to Auburn's second-half surges, but Miles also said he would have liked the game to have "a nice, orderly finish," adding, "That was not what I consider orderly."
With rain steady throughout the day and well into the first half, ball security was a challenge early and hurt Auburn most.
Nick Marshall's fumbled handoff on fourth-and-1 on the LSU 41 led to Hill's long TD run three plays later for the game's opening score. Punter Steven Clark's mishandled snap on Auburn's second possession of the game set up Hill's 10-yard score to give LSU a 14-0 lead before six minutes had elapsed.
Already, Auburn was facing a larger deficit than at any point in its first three games.
"We kind of beat ourselves in the beginning," Mason said. "Mistakes after mistakes can get frustrating and that happened.
"We also have to figure out how to play in weather like this."
LSU was threatening to take a three-score lead when running back Terrence Magee fumbled on the Auburn 12, but Hill's slashing 54-yard run set up fullback J.C. Copeland's forceful touchdown carry to make it 21-0.
Auburn did not score until early in the third quarter. Mason's 2-yard TD run capped a 50-yard drive that began with Auburn safety Jermaine Whitehead's interception.
LSU responded immediately with a 75-yard drive that ended with Hill's third TD.
During much of the offseason, it wasn't clear if Hill would be able to play at all. His arrest for landing a punch outside a bar in late April violated his probation from an earlier misdemeanor plea to carnal knowledge of a juvenile. A judge placed further restrictions on Hill's probation, but agreed to let him remain out of jail.
Miles, who'd suspended Hill after his arrest, reinstated him when fall practice began and benched him only for LSU's season-opening victory over TCU. A week later, Hill scored on his first carry against UAB. He scored twice last week against Kent State, including a 58-yarder. He was even more dominant this weekend.
Game notes
Auburn WR Jaylon Denson was carted off with what appeared to be a serious knee injury in the first quarter. ... LSU DT Anthony Johnson appeared to hurt his left leg, but LSU did not provide any update on his condition. ...

Auburn vs. LSU final score: LSU holds on in Death Valley for 35-21 victory
By Connor Tapp @MeetMeAtTapps on Sep 21 2013,
Crystal LoGiudice-USA TODAY Spor
Stay connected
LSU jumped out to a 21-0 lead early in the second quarter, a run that was ignited by a pair of impressive Jeremy Hill touchdown runs of 49 yards and 10 yards. Hill's second touchdown came on the first play after Auburn fumbled an attempted punt on its own 10 yard line.
GIF credit: ESPN
Auburn had a chance to get back in the game in the fourth quarter after a 12-yard Cameron Artis-Payne touchdown run brought the score to 35-21, but the onside kick attempt recovered by Cody Parkey was reviewed and ruled to be illegal touching. From there, LSU and Auburn traded punts as the clock continued to wind down and Auburn's chances of scoring two touchdowns to tie it up to force overtime became increasingly slim.
With less than two minutes to go, Auburn quarterback Nick Marshall led a drive deep into LSU territory that threatened to make things interesting, but it stalled out on a failed fourth down attempt in which Tre Mason was dragged down on a screen pass at the LSU 12.
Box Score Hero:
LSU running back Jeremy Hill could have quit halfway through the second quarter and still would have walked away with this honor. Hill finished the night with 183 and 3 touchdowns on 25 carries and had 140 of those two minutes into the second quarter.
Rankings Ramifications:
LSU looked good, but so did everybody in front of them. Expect the sixth-ranked Tigers to stand pat.
But Did They Cover?
When LSU pulled ahead 35-14, it appeared that folks picking Les Miles' Tigers to cover the 17-point spread would be quite happy. But Auburn scored a late touchdown to secure a back-door cover.

Hill and the LSU offense didn't let a little rain -- well, a lot of
rain -- stop them from scoring at least 35 points for the fourth time in
four games.His diagnosis had a decided purple-and-gold tinge to it.
“We’re coming after you, Alabama,” O’Neal proclaimed.
Make that LSU and everybody else in college football.
But after the monsoon Jeremy Hill and LSU unleashed on Auburn in the kind of rainy, windy night on the Bayou that only a duck would have loved, maybe Shaq is on to something.
Why not LSU?
The No. 6 Tigers weren’t real thrilled with themselves over the way they slopped around in the second half of their 35-21 win, and Auburn’s fight and grit had something to do with that. But this is clearly an LSU team that nobody should discount in the SEC race.
“One thing about it is that we’re capable of a lot more,” said Hill, who romped for 184 yards and three touchdowns, 152 of those yards coming in the first half. “We just need to make sure we don’t let off the gas. You’ve got to do that for four quarters, the way we came out to start the game.
“That’s what it’s going to take to keep this thing going.”
LSU (4-0) led 21-0 at the half and had a chance to go up by four touchdowns midway through the third quarter, but bogged down inside the Auburn 20 and then came up short on fourth down when Les Miles called for a fake field goal.
It didn’t help that LSU’s defense gave up 333 yards of total offense in the second half, and Auburn ran 85 offensive plays in the game.
“The reason they had the ball as much as they did is that we kept giving it back to them,” Miles said. “We’re pleased, but not satisfied. We’ve got to play better. We’ve got to finish the game.”
Still, for a team that lost seven underclassmen a year ago to the NFL draft -- including six defensive starters -- it hardly has the feel of rebuilding.
Reloading is more like it.
Lost in the uproar over LSU’s collapse against Clemson last season in the Chick-fil-A Bowl and then the mass exodus of juniors leaving early for the NFL draft was that this is a program that’s stockpiled talent and developed that talent as well as anybody in the country over the last few years.
Maybe that’s why Miles squinted his eyes ever so confidently this offseason anytime somebody quizzed him about the challenge of overcoming the loss of so many key players and keeping pace with the other kingpins in the league.
Five SEC teams opened the season ranked ahead of LSU in the polls. But four weeks in -- and having some actual games to use as fodder -- it’s difficult to point to four teams in this league that are better than the Tigers.
Florida was dealt a huge blow Saturday with the season-ending injury to quarterback Jeff Driskel, while Georgia, South Carolina and Texas A&M have all already lost games.
It’s true that LSU is playing a slew of young guys on defense and has given up too many big plays this season, but defensive coordinator John Chavis knew it would be imperative to build some depth before LSU hit the teeth of its SEC schedule. Plus, the Tigers have two future pros in the middle in defensive tackles Anthony Johnson and Ego Ferguson.
So while the defense is a ways from being a finished product, the biggest difference with the Tigers is how explosive and balanced they are on offense.
First-year offensive coordinator Cam Cameron has made an obvious difference, and the pieces are in place to give more than a few defenses in this league fits. The Tigers have scored 35 or more points and racked up more than 400 yards in total offense in all four of their games this season.
“We know what we can be. You saw it in the first half,” said Hill, whose 49-yard touchdown run came on the Tigers’ first possession. “That’s the way it needs to be for the whole game.”
So how good are these Tigers?
We'll find out a lot more next week when they visit No. 9 Georgia in what will be the second top-10 matchup of the month involving SEC teams.
It was Alabama versus Texas A&M last week in College Station, and that game turned into a 49-42 shootout won by the Crimson Tide.
We could be in for another wild ride next week in Athens, especially with the way Georgia and LSU are scoring points.
In the past, it would have been difficult to imagine the Tigers being equipped to win an Xbox-type score-a-thon. But not so much anymore.
“We have shown flashes of breaking the mold of that old LSU team,” Zach Mettenberger said. “We do have explosive playmakers on offense, and we can make plays. We just need to learn to focus on every play and for four quarters.
“We’ve shown that we can still be a very effective offense even when we’re not playing our best. I’m just really anxious to see what this offense can be when we play four quarters and execute on every play.”
