Our goal over the next 15 months is to make sure the 2014 elections will not just be a referendum on Obamacare ... and we're finding that it’s not easy to persuade our Democratic allies to stick with our talking points and walk off an electoral cliff!
This outcome of the disaster called ‘Obamacare’ was perfectly clear long before the 2012 elections, yet this same Washington Post kept its mouth shut about it, instead parroting the same lies we’ve heard from this Administration since 2009. If anything, the WaPo should be apoligizing for the role it played in all of this. After all, they were the ones who endorsed this less than one year ago.
———A lot must have happened behind the scenes -——
It will be interesting to see if what happened off stage is ever revealed
What did happen?
falling apart or not, it is the law and wreaking havoc on the economy as it was designed to do.
The feckless republicans in the house, who supposedly control the purse strings, continue to fund the monster. Until the republicans put the country ahead of themselves, we continue to lose.
I don’t expect any change in the republicans in my lifetime (I am old).
If anything, the WaPo should be apologizing for the role it played in all of this.
My learned guess is that a lot more mainstream media monkeys are going to suffer buyer's remorse over ObamaCare before this disaster is over ... but you're delusional if you think these masters of perfection will even recognize they were at fault, let alone apologize for their stupidity.
The GOP needs a few more (maybe a lot more) crotch fighters like Ted Cruz...
One of the huge differences between conservatives and liberals.
Conservatives are more than happy to live under the same laws they want for everyone else.
Liberals expect to be exempted from the laws they expect everyone else to live under.
Hehehe... hahaha... ho... he...
Rut-roh. I think the joke's on me.
“Liberals expect to be exempted from the laws they expect everyone else to live under.”
Yes, and liberals are very happy to vote for ‘freebies’, as long as the costs are paid for by someone else. They all thought they were going to get free medical care, and that the only people who were going to get hurt were ‘those rich doctors and hospitals and insurance companies etc.’. In the end, they pushed through a law that hurts many patients, and makes money for specific ‘fat cats’ who were in bed with the administration during the planning phases of this disaster. And, overall costs go up, not down.
Do not worry. Everything is on schedule for single payer.
It is rather ironic - isn’t it?
The most hard core supporters of obama (college kids, blacks and latinos) are getting hammered by the policies of obama.
But they will never learn.
Interesting that the Wa Post describes the debacle of Obamacare as a rejection by the unionts who are the Dem political funding army. The Wa Post doesn’t mention anything about Americans’ health or the quality of American health care. The criterion of failure for the Wa Post is a failure in political support for Dems. This is revealing.
Excellent point. One fine post!
Astute observation.
Object lesson: Voters in Detroit over the last few decades.

Am proud to say he is my Senator
Really hope he replaces McConnell as leader
His first act would be stripping the likes of McCain and Graham of any leadership position
I note that 11.2 percent of neurologists, just one specialty area of health care, have recently chosen to leave the profession. That is more than one in every ten of these professionals who spent many years perfecting the ability to treat multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, stroke, and other maladies. The burden of administrative complexity that eats away at the time available to practice medicine is a serious threat to health care in general. However, Obamacare is designed to push the delivery of care down to nurse practitioners and less costly but less knowledgable health care personnel. At the same time, Obamacare pushes quality measurement to counter the lowering of quality of care. It puts the stresses on the backs of the practitioners. Guess whose health care will suffer? In addition, the added patient load and requirements to treat/insure will shift the cost to already overburdened taxpayers and working people. Obamacare doesn’t fit the real world and has been an obvious tragedy from the start.
But, tens of millions voted for this kind of gov’t. There is no one to protect these voters from themselves. Too bad the rest of us get dragged into their debacles.
