"I really don't know that is wrong with this thing - it feels worse than just a flat tire..."
Presidential historians will tell you this happens to most Administrations. Usually during a second term. However, my belief is the history books will show October of 2013 as one "dozzie of a month" for Barack Hussein Obama.
Lets take a look back at this month, shall we?
- ACA Website - The only bad thing about the short term government shut down was it took two weeks off the spotlight from this train wreck. Most people who have only a molecule of IT experience have never seen anything like this. Years to prepare, no beta testing, and hundreds of millions spent on .... nothing. The President has called for an IT "surge" to get this mess up and running before the end of November. Stand by for more sticker shock on this lemon.
- ACA Costs - "The price of your insurance will come down under my health program." Au contraire El Presidente! (a little French and Spanish added). We are now being told that some plans are going up either because you are being "gouged" by your insurance company, or "you are going to benefit by getting more for more". What if you don't want more? Tough toenails - all policies have to be up to "ACA standards". I guess government "pro-choice" only applies to ....(never mind).
- ACA Plans - "If you like your insurance plan, you can keep it." Oh-oh. Another whopper told by our Campaigner-In-Chief. It seems there was some fine print, an asterisk so to speak, in that promise. If you have a policy though an employer, it will probably not change. However, for those poor slobs who are self insured - they are receiving "Dear John" letters from their current provider. Oh well - it seems that Hawaii was not like the brochure after all.
- NSA Snooping - "Plausible Deniability"...or something like that. Or it is like Sgt. Shultz on Hogan's Heroes saying, "I know nothing!" Or it is just a another damn lie. The apologists are already out this morning saying the usual - "Well G.W. Bush did it too!". Maybe he did, maybe he did not. We must remember Mr. Obama ran on the "anti-Bush" platform. You remember - "Bush and Cheney have shredded the Constitution, so now we are hated by everyone in the world." Whether the President knew about this and lied, or did not know about it and is just incompetent, going forward our reset button will need a reset button.
- Benghazi - All I have to say about Sunday night's expose on 60 Minutes is this - IT IS ABOUT "BLEEPING" TIME SOMEONE IN THE PRESS STARTED DOING THEIR JOB AND REPORTING THE TRUTH!! If you did not see it, even if you hate CBS or 60 Minutes for what they have done to journalism in the past, I encourage you to go online and see this one piece. The Administration is dirty, dirty, dirty on this one and innocent people died for nothing. Heads should roll, and roll now. David Axelrod said this was an "imaginary scandal" - it does not seem so imaginary right now.
