| Seven Anarchist Senators Seek Obamacare Delay »
October 24, 2013
New Hotness On The Left: Obamacare Was Sabotaged!!11!If a group under siege can demonstrate “that there has been a conspiracy, which has transformed politics and society,” the British writer David Aaranovitch, astutely observed in Voodoo Histories, then they can convince themselves that “their defeat is not the product of their own inherent weakness or unpopularity, let alone their mistakes,” but is instead “due to the almost demonic ruthlessness of their enemy.” That piece is by Charles C.W. Cooke, so of course you should read the whole thing. He got a little ahead of himself, though Amusingly, the president’s defiance has simultaneously inspired his base and irritated the press corps. Friendly journalists such as Ezra Klein, Greg Sargent, and Ryan Lizza have been brutally honest about the scale of the mess, while, in the alternative universe that progressive users of social media inhabit, frustrated defenders of the rollout have started to blame the usual suspects. Do a quick search on Twitter for the words “Koch sabotage” and you’ll find an astonishing number of results. The same goes for “Koch Obamacare” and “Koch ruined,” too. ... leading to this inevitable update:
They'll all come around eventually. As for myself, I usually don't go in for these conspiracy theories. When Team Orca screwed that system up royally, there were those on the right who floated the theory that it must have been DDoS'ed or something, when in reality it was obvious that it was a botched rollout. But in this case, there's something to this sabotage idea. And I only say that because the HQ has obtained an exclusive photo of the saboteur in action. ![]() That, right there, is the man who screwed up the federal exchanges. To paraphrase Hanlon's razor, never presume malice when incompetence is an adequate explanation ... and that guy is chock-full of incompetence. | Recent Comments
