ObamaCare exchanges cost $4.6 Billion - at least $474 Million of which was completely wasted

At one point, state exchanges were all Democrats wanted to talk about. "Sure," they'd say. "The federal website is a mess, but the state exchanges are doing great work!" Ignoring all polling to the contrary, they'd tell you that state exchanges were evidence that the public loved Obama's boondoggle. Their "overwhelming, irrefutable, success" was trotted out as proof of ObamaCare's grand efficacy.

GAO: Despite apocalyptic warnings the onerous, machiavellian, sequester cut exactly 1 federal job

If you were paying attention during the battle over the sequester, you remember the apocalyptic warnings. Democrats claimed that if Republicans went ahead with the measure - which was invented and pushed by Obama's White House - federal employment numbers would be decimated. This, they said, would thrill GOP membership, because they hate the poor, downtrodden, underpaid and overworked federal machine. If the left was to be believed, permanent job cuts would mandate the firing of thousands of government employees who would then wander the streets, participating in underground, winner-gets-a-bowl-of soup bumfights in order to survive.

Poll: ACA more despised than ever, while Nevada faces 90,000 cancellations and price hikes

Democrats have long been promising that, once people get signed up, they're going to love ObamaCare. Candidates are going to run on its merits, and the law is going to be a big positive for Dems during the 2014 midterms. Those who were still against it were a small, dwindling minority. As soon as the signup date passed, and the target numbers were (allegedly) reached, negative perception was supposed to fade away.

Uh-oh. New poll suggests 'blame Bush' may not be working like it used to...

Terrorism? Bush's fault. The Ukraine? Bush's fault. Benghazi? Bush's fault. Smallest labor participation rate in 30 years? Bush's fault. Terrible GDP? Bush's fault. Soaring gas prices? Bush's fault. Stagnant 'recovery?' Bush's fault. Mid-East collapse? Bush's fault. ObamaCare's many failings? Somehow, mysteriously, also Bush's fault.
