Ken Cuccinelli Talks About Challenging Obamacare and the EPA

Obama Regime Warns Supreme Court: Stay Away From ObamaCare…
[Guest post by Aaron Worthing; if you have tips, please send them here .] I predicted two things the last time one of these videos dropped. First, there were more.

And of course it ends with the words, “To be continued…” Exit question: who is the fastest man on Earth? Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli running in front of a camera to announce an investigation. (Note: that is a joke and a prediction; he hasn’t announced anything yet.) Hat-tip: Hot air .
