In late October, continuing a four-year pattern of making such claims, MIT's Jonathan Gruber, who along with Ezekiel "Zeke the Bleak" Emanuel is considered one of the two "architects" of the Affordable Care Act, aka Obamacare, pointed to a study which claimed that "the Affordable Care Act is working even better than expected, producing more coverage for much less money." But, as Wingfield noted in his Friday column, Gruber sang a totally different tune when quoted in the Washington Post on Thursday.

Actually anyone in this administration who had anything to do with mess as well as the entire Democrat party that voted for this in Congress should serve time in jail.

They want some CEO type to come in and run Obamacare, Mitt Romney is probably one of the few men in America that could do the job but they wouldn’t let him do what was necessary.

Do any of these “architects” and czars ever hold a real job in the real world? Or do they all live off the public dole in fake ivory tower make-work jobs where they get patted on the back for every harebrained idea that crosses their mind? Have any of them ever balanced a budget in either their personal lives or in business? Have any of them every had to meet a payroll? Have any of them ever created any wealth? Or have they only confiscated it from the real producers?
