Former Democratic staffer, burned by Obamacare: “I was wrong. Very wrong.” Congressional staffer spent two years enduring the slings and arrows of outraged constituents, unhappy over her Party’s crap sandwich. She’s since lost her job and now has to buy health insurance under the law she defended. The result? Petard, hoisted, yada, yada, yada.

Dem on ObamaCare: “We will own this problem forever”
Dem on ObamaCare: “We will own this problem forever.” As the signs in all the tourist trap souvenir stores say, “You BREAK it, you OWN it.” FYI: here’s the LA Times “sticker shock” story the mail alluded to. The pull quote: “I was all for Obamacare until I found out I was paying for it.”
Libertarian Jesus
Libertarian Jesus. “Render unto Caesar what is Caesar’s…” not “From each according to whether they’re my cronies, to each according to my need.”

NBC says Obama admin. knew millions could not keep their health insurance
NBC says Obama admin. knew millions could not keep their health insurance. “Obama administration has known [this] for at least 3 years: …50 to 75 percent of the 14 million consumers who buy their insurance individually can expect to receive a ‘cancellation’ letter or the equivalent over the next year because their existing policies don’t meet the standards mandated by the new health care law. …[sources] say that many of those forced to buy pricier new policies will experience ‘sticker shock.’” It’s not a lie, it’s just a truth they decided not to tell until well after the election.
60 Minutes confirms Benghazi is a real scandal, and you’ve been lied to
60 Minutes confirms Benghazi is a real scandal, and you’ve been lied to. “…the heart of the report is that there were clear and unequivocal warnings which were ignored, and the Obama administration lied about these warnings after the attack.” Too late to deselect Obozo and everyone knows Congress wouldn’t dare impeach him. Is this CBS’s way of saying “No mas Clintons”?

Granholm jokes that Obama will supervise writing the Obamacare website code
Granholm jokes that Obama will supervise writing the Obamacare website code. Supervise???? Unless that involves putting, fundraising or blaming George Bush for stuff, not likely.
Democrat Alan Grayson accuses MSNBC’s Martin Bashir of collaborating with the KKK
Democrat Alan Grayson accuses MSNBC’s Martin Bashir of collaborating with the KKK. Ladies and gentlement, Alan Grayson, Congress’s evil clown: “The point I’m making is that if you don’t speak out against [racism], then in effect, you’re collaborating with it. And, in fact, if you give someone like me a hard time for speaking out against it, then maybe you’re collaborating with it.” [FF 5 min in if you can’t stand wading thru the rest of this nonsense.]

A gentleman of quality
A gentleman of quality. King Barry is making the world like us again… not: “There is in it a visceral antipathy, an almost palpable hostility toward Obama, as if by one betrayed, not just by a president reluctantly putting the interests of his country first, but by a worthless common grifter.” By George, I think they’ve got it!
McArdle: Obamacare fiasco isn’t a single-payer conspiracy
McArdle: Obamacare fiasco isn’t a single-payer conspiracy. “Even if the individual market functionally disappears, most people will still be covered, and most politicians will be unwilling to endorse a program that takes away what they have.” The problem is politicians no longer seem to give an airborne fornication about what “the people” want – and the people reelect the same jackasses that ignore them anyway.
Census Bureau: Means-tested gov’t benefit recipients outnumber full-time year-round workers
Census Bureau: Means-tested gov’t benefit recipients outnumber full-time year-round workers. “That means there were about 1.07 people getting some form of means-tested government benefit for every 1 person working full-time year round.” What are those still working waiting for? Last one on the bread line gets… well, nothing since there’ll be no one left to make any.
Obama flees Obamacare disaster for New York fundraiser
Obama flees Obamacare disaster for New York fundraiser. “The president will fly to his two New York fundraisers on Air Force One gratis because he’s also got a quick non-partisan stop at a local high school.” He’s hoping Democlowns can retake the House in 2014. Last time they had full control, they did so many wunnerful things – like pass ObamaCrash. Death Spiral.
Now available: Prices for every insurance plan offered on Healthcare.gov
Now available: Prices for every insurance plan offered on Healthcare.gov. “Is this information … supposed to be public? I thought the whole point of forcing people to register before showing them the prices is that they didn’t want you to see how expensive the plans are until you’d already been lured with the promise of subsidies.” Maybe Snowden is working for HHS now. Go directly to the spreadsheet here.
Saudi Arabia severs diplomatic ties with US over response to conflict in Syria
Saudi Arabia severs diplomatic ties with US over response to conflict in Syria. Hmmm, what to do, what to do…. We dunno, but someone better get fracking….
Craigslist makes turning food stamps into cash a SNAP
Craigslist makes turning food stamps into cash a SNAP. “On the bright side, at least the Craigslist website is working.” From the comments: “The other cool thing about SNAP is that after you sell it to someone you can call the office and tell them you lost yours. They will give you a new card on the spot, no questions asked. I’m not sure that any tracking of the ‘lost’ card is done.” Awesome.
Is there ObamaCare ‘propaganda’ on our favorite shows?
Is there ObamaCare “propaganda” on our favorite shows? Well, if there isn’t, it’s likely the only kind of left-wing propaganda our favorite “shows” are missing.
Jon Stewart on ObamaCare glitches – You can’t spin this turd
Jon Stewart on ObamaCare “glitches”: “You can’t spin this turd.” You don’t spin it Jon, you make a sandwich from it. After all, you voted for it.

“Wind Turbine Syndrome” blamed for mysterious symptoms in Cape Cod town
“Wind Turbine Syndrome” blamed for mysterious symptoms in Cape Cod town. Headaches, ringing in the ears, insomnia and dizziness… due to one’s proximity to wind turbines? No wonder so many green energy proponents say NIMBY! [Video at the link.]
State media, Jerry Brown ignore CA’s worst-in-nation poverty rate
State media, Jerry Brown ignore CA’s worst-in-nation poverty rate. “…why isn’t the fact that California is worse off than Mississippi and West Virginia front-page news? Or back-page news? Or news at all?” We’re at the point where it would be big news if journ0lists actually started reporting the news….
Obamacare Enrollment Plan B – Phoning it in
Obamacare Enrollment Plan B – Phoning it in. Dept. of Redundancy Dept: “Obama encouraged Americans seeking insurance to sign up the old-fashioned way by calling 1-800-318-2596. But when I tried calling the number… I got referred back to the website Healthcare.gov and its live web chat feature.” Hey, if the website then tells you to call, you could be caught in an infinite ObamaCare loop! Cool!
Dickerson: Obama headed toward “credibility death spiral” on Obamacare
CBS News political director John Dickerson: Obama headed toward “credibility death spiral” on Obamacare. Spiral baby, spiral. BTW, this is the same doofus who advised Obama to destroy the Republicans back in January. Oh, how the mighty stupid have fallen. [Video at the link.]
White House not being honest about ObamaCare problems, says Ezra Klein
White House not being honest about ObamaCare problems, says Ezra Klein (on MSNBC, no less). “These aren’t glitches. The website, to a first approximation, simply isn’t working.” Just like everything else the Quagmire-in-Chief does.

Thousands get health insurance cancellation notices
Thousands get health insurance cancellation notices. “…the cancellation notices, which began arriving in August, have shocked many consumers in light of President Barack Obama’s promise that people could keep their plans if they liked them.” If the media had done their job, consumers wouldn’t be “shocked” now.
NYC mayoral candidates to add Muslim holidays to school calendar
NYC mayoral candidates to add Muslim holidays to school calendar. “At this rate, city kids will be in school until the end of July. … advocates for other religious and ethnic groups are clamoring for their days to be recognized too.” July? At this rate, they’ll be in school about 3 weeks per year.
Grand Theft Nation: Red States, younger Americans see highest rate hikes from Obamacare
Grand Theft Nation: Red States, younger Americans see highest rate hikes from Obamacare. Check out the rate hikes for Adults aged 27 (first column) and then remember that this scheme needs young, healthy people to sign up in droves in order to subsidize everyone else. Hey, Illinois! Your young voters got a 114% increase! Way to go!
NRO: WH may have to consider “unthinkable options” if website meltdown continues into November
NRO: WH may have to consider “unthinkable options” if website meltdown continues into November. “Exit quotation via HuffPo: ‘[F]ailure of this magnitude would discredit a core premise of this presidency, that government can do big things to improve Americans’ lives.” After 5 summers of no recovery (among other things), that discredit thing should be in the rearview mirror by now. Maybe one last big THUD with the stupid hammer will finally drive the point home.
