Benghzai versus Syria
I'm surprised I haven't heard this in the media or talk shows.
A year ago we had the President, Sec State, Press Secretary and every gov't talking head telling us that a video caused the violence in Benghazi.
Now the same ****** in office are telling us that Assad used Sarin gas, while the Germans and others have said their intelligence shows the rebels or rogue units did it.
Is it that Americans have this unbelievable capacity to believe what's on the news? Is it that we have blind trust in our government? WTF?
So far we're not in this fight, and yet we've managed to become the most hated player on the field, as well as laughed at by every country in the world. Good job, Barry.

Much like people believe in a mythical creature in the sky waiting to show you his love by damning you to eternal hellfire for not loving him.

Obamacare reality
from Instapundit blog:
MAYBE THE GOP IS PLAYING INTO OBAMA’S HANDS BY STOPPING THIS TRAINWRECK. A longtime reader emails:
Through serendipity I’ve ended up working in HIT (health information technology). I take 50 calls a day with independent insurance agents/brokers to navigate the hoops to qualify to sell on the FFM (Federal Facilitated Marketplaces). The Government websites they need to access to register are riddled with random error messages, and simply attempting to log in to complete this process routinely fails. The agents/brokers are, to a person, terrified. If they cannot complete this process by October 1st (the deadline) they are hosed. Nobody knows what to do, and this will only get worse when millions of consumers join the fray of the marketplace. It appears nobody scaled the back end to accommodate this exponential growth. And now?, It’s too late. It’s like the owner of the White Star line getting a telegram about the Titanic sinking and saying “We need to order more lifeboats.” And these are the smartest guys in the room? #soscrewed. For obvious reasons, don’t use my name please..
Some journalism on this subject would be nice.
