Obama says Republicans share some blame for health-care law's failures

#16  That's right. There were a bunch of Republicans that didn't vote for McCain or Romney.

#15  Laura Jarrett, daughter of Valarie, is an executive at CGI (Canada). So is her husband. It isn't just only Moochelle's friend.

#13  As a socialist, he firmly believes in re-distribution. Everyone gets an equal share.

#12  $600,000,000.00+ for a website that no workie!

Where did the money go? Same place it went with Solyndra and all the other boondoggles handed to his cronies.

#11  Â“ThereÂ’s probably no bigger gap between the private sector and the public sector than IT,” Obama said. “What we probably needed to do on the front end was to blow up how we procure for IT, especially on a system this complicated. We did not do that successfully.”

Excuse me, but it was no bid contract. Is he saying that he had no choice and so it had to be a no bid contract? And that he had no choice in vendors? That it just had to be an old crony of Moochelle's? Really? And WaPo let's him get away with that? WaPo doesn't challenge that remark at all?

#10  This is what Cruz's song and dance was about. Making it clear to the world who owned this and who oppossed it. Obama can't change that (well for the cool-aid drinkers looking for talking points he can but for rational folks).

#8  Tire company sells 1million tires.

200,000 tires blowout in the first 100 miles.

Even if all four wheels received faulty tires, this would cause *at best* 50,000 car wrecks in that one year.

#7  A Democratic President, a Democratic House and a Democratic Senate all passed a bill that none of them read, because they "won"...

Now I know what it was like to read Pravda.

#5  I read the whole thing, and it could have easily been titled, "Health Care Law Still Has a Long, Long Way to Go".

Even if, as continues to be promised, the website handles 80% of the ... applicants on December 1st, there is another milestone in January pertaining to actually sending our hard-earned money to the insurance companies on behalf of those subsidized.

Unfortunately, most readers won't get past 'The Pubs Did It', because that's what they believe going in.

But DO read the whole thing - it is very telling.

#2  The man ("I won")had the Donk controlled Congress (Reid and Pelosi) pass it before anyone could read it and without any bipartisan negotiations or vote and now wants to desperately blame someone else for the failure of his 'landmark' achievement. Next 'counter revolutionary saboteurs' are to blame.
