If #Obamacare was Fast Food…

From the brilliantly twisted mind of Glenn McCoy:

Yet another “adjustment” to Obama’s Glorious-yet-Ever-Changing Healthcare Plan

…but only because it’s politically expedient for the Democrats, of course.

And now, for the latest “adjustment” of His Lordship’s Glorious-yet-Ever-Changing Healthcare Plan for the Great Unwashed:

Sniveling cretin Harry Reid to #Obamacare victims: You’re Lying…

Big Lie 5658

Ever hear someone say something so blatantly false that you’re practically stunned into silence (at least temporarily)? Ever hear a lie so bold, so insanely mendacious, that you can’t honestly believe you heard it accurately?

#Obamacare website sign-up numbers even LOWER than expected… **UPDATE: only 26,794!

Guy Benson   –by Guy Benson; Political Editor, Townhall.com

The White House has been hyping its #My2K Twitter hashtag in an attempt to galvanize supporters to contact their Congressional representatives to demand action to avert the fiscal cliff.  The administration estimates that unless Congress moves, the average family’s tax bill will jump by more than $2,000, starting on the first of January.

The implication, of course, is that Republicans are once again standing in the way of resolving this problem.  Show of hands — as the media breathlessly follows every minor twist and turn of these negotiations, how many of you have seen this fact reported?
