Two months ago, to much fanfare by the progressive community, HHS, if not Dr. Jonathan Gruber, were delighted to report that as of August 15, Obamacare enrolment had hit 7.3 million sign ups, well above the 7.0 million goal.
Then a week ago we learned that "projection mistakes were made" after the "Obama administration revised its estimate for Obamacare enrollment, now saying - with the bruising midterms safely in the rearview mirror - that it expects some 9.9 million people to have coverage through the Affordable Care Acts insurance exchanges in 2015, millions fewer than outside experts predicted."
The administration said Monday that around 7.1 million people across the country who picked plans during the current years open-enrollment period were still paid up for their coverage. Thats down from the eight million who the administration said had picked plans as of this spring.
Fast forward to today when moments ago Bloomberg reported, that "the Obama administration included as many as 400,000 dental plans in a number it reported for enrollments under the Affordable Care Act, an unpublicized detail that helped surpass a goal for 7 million sign-ups."

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Here’s some more on the current enrollment clusterfark that nobody seems to be reporting on ... further grubering of the numbers is the result:

For those of us who lived thru the cold war and remember Pravda reporting that the latest Soviet five year plan had hit their grain targets, these reports are becoming ominously familiar.
Who is going to signup this time around? The people with the highest incentive to signup have already done so. There is another round of insurance cancellations in the private market and from small businesses terminating coverage. People with incomes under 400% of FPL would certainly take a look at the exchanges for a subsidy, especially if they have an unaffordable chronic condition.
This whole Marxist administration has lied from before they were elected/appointed and have no plans to stop it.
Why not?
They have fooled enough Americans to obtain an “electoral coup” without having to ever tell the truth so when you’re on a “roll”, you just keep on “rollin’”.
Thanks for the ping.
Thought for the day: since all this ‘untruth-telling’ is not reported in the MSM and ‘Lefties Weekly’, the Lefties don’t suspect that such a thing is possible. The GOP will have an easy time when they form a Regime. Kinda gives them a free hand. Right? Grin.
Just a few months ago or so on The Hill website I was in a debate with a flaming liberal over this very thing. He kept on calling obamacare a raging success and pointed to the enrollment numbers as proof. I warned him that the administration has a record of cooking the books (census, unemployment, illegal alien deportation, etc) and the enrollment numbers of obamacare was no different.
We kept on going back and forth, him citing the enrollment numbers as proof of the success and popularity of obamacare and me warning him that he is being lied to by the administration because the enrollment numbers are fake.
I also added that sooner or later that the truth will come out and as a result he will come to realize that he has been made a fool of due to him believing obamas enrollment number lies and repeating them as if they were gospel.
He just wouldnt listen to me so I just walked away from our debate, seeing how hopeless it was trying to talk some sense into him.
Well...
WHO IS RIGHT NOW YOU EFFING MORON???????
