Media Can’t Spin ObamaCare ‘Debacle’

You know it’s a complete botch when even the Democrat-Media Complex — NBC, ABC, CBS — can’t ignore the failure:

    “What difference at this point does it make?” Hillary Rodham Clinton

    Sure the networks can say bad stuff about this now, after the Republicans have already caved.

    Stacy, developing story out of southern Illinois. Two Saudi visiting soldier trainees sexually solicited a 12 yr-old American girl playing in her yard.

    Here’s the worst of it. The Saudis are going to post the bail $$, and local TV reports it’s now possible they’ll skip town and go back to Saudi Arabia never to be seen or heard from again.

    Friggin’ unbelievable!!!

    Of course, any thinking person with a passing acquaintance with economics would have realized long ago that believing that a new massive bureaucracy designed to bring 30 million people into a system for less money and more “benefits” was the functional equivalent of believing tossing a virgin into a volcano helped crops grow. The allure of magical thinking is very strong. What’s amazing is the self-professed “smart” people buy in and keep doubling down no matter how often they’re shown to be wrong.

    The problem is that throwing a virgin into the volcano won’t wither the crops on the vine; the Obumblecare rollout is going to make things worse, not just leave them alone.

    I have read this “debacle” was scripted to set up the requisite conditions for a “single payer” system — the ultimate, real goal all along… The media is just following the narrative, on cue, as planned!

    The eventual, inevitable and orchestrated single-payer (socialised) health-care system will be “blamed” on those Republicans…

    Well, as they say, because the Dems voted for it (Obamacare) they have to own it.

    Forget this, the new talking points are out and in use: the Republicans did it, the problems are their fault.

    Seriously. These people move too fast for parody. You think you’ve made a joke, and turn on the news and the talking heads are, with straight faces, repeating what you just thought was an obvious gag.

    Well put!…although I can’t really say whether or not throwing a virgin into a volcano will or will not help the crops grow. You see, everytime I try to find a virgin around where I live, I can’t find one.

    The guys were stationed at Fort Leonard Wood (“Lost In The Woods” in Army slang) and tried to abduct a girl in Pulaski County where Lot in the Woods is located. That’s not far from Rolla which is about 20 miles up I-44.

    The Liberal Establishment is a self parodying mess. It’s what you get from “mainstreaming” insane idiots instead of putting them in a a nice safe place for their sake and that of society.
