"Incredibly, Many 'Smart' Conservatives Still Don't Get It"

How can they not get it? How can smart, savvy conservative commentators and news analysts still not understand that ObamaCare is doing exactly what was intended?

Okay, by conventional thinking - using generally accepted principles and standards - one would assume that a massive government program supposedly created, and certainly sold, to help people would actually be intended to help people. In other words, the program, like ObamaCare, would be designed to make our lives better. But in the era of Obama, such assumptions are not just faulty, they're naïve…and even dangerous.

In the court of public opinion, the evidence is overwhelming that ObamaCare, with all its echoes and offspring, was never, ever intended to do what the sheisters and shady dealers promised. We now know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Obama and his deceitful minions lied to us - willfully, repeatedly and without reservation - in order to sell America a bill of goods to cover up all the bads of ObamaCare.

We now know, without a doubt, that people who were assured, over and over again, that they could keep their health insurance, their doctors, their hospitals - we now know they were deceived. Millions of people were wickedly tricked, and their trust was trampled.

We now know that, when their lies, their deceit, their trickery are exposed, ObamaCare advocates and apologists resort to more lies, more deception, and even press intimidation and back room strong-arming of insurance companies to shut up and play ball…adding cruel insult to catastrophic injury.

We now know that foot-dragging and finger-pointing by ObamaCare caretakers is designed to cover up the abject failure of the program peddled to help the millions of uninsured to sign up for affordable health insurance. Sure, you can find the occasional "success story" told by some grateful Obama supporter, but overall the enrollment has been abysmal. And the minions happy-face and tap dance their way across the stage of the Obama's theater of the absurd.

We now know the media - the mainstream media - is at an existential crossroads. Reporters, editors, managers must now decide whether they will try to reclaim what's left of their professional souls and tell the truth, or sell out completely to the false gods of crony journalism. In fact, American liberty may ride in part on that incredibly important decision.

But what about the so-called "conservative" media? As we asked at the beginning of this report, how can they not get it? Not recognize that ObamaCare is, was, and always has been a brute-force wrecking ball, swung with careless abandon by a demolition crew intent on crashing the free-market-based health care system in favor of one that's government-run, centrally planned and managed by the self-serving masterminds?

Consider the analysis by Charles Krauthammer, who said that ObamaCare is a "program that's doing the exact opposite of what's intended". Krauthammer also called ObamaCare a "disaster" because it's throwing far more people off their existing insurance than it's signing up, now, or possibly ever. Well, duh! From all the evidence, wouldn't you say the train wreck law is doing an awesome job of wrecking the system so the progressive masterminds can rebuild it?

What about conservative commentator Pat Buchanan, who went on TV to declare that ObamaCare is a "manifest act of incompetence on the part of the administration". Really? Wouldn't the evidence strongly suggest, no…insist, that administration overlords have been incredibly competent in plunging the country's health care system into chaotic disarray. So they can seize control and impose emergency measures more to their authoritarian liking.

And those are just two examples of many instances where Right-leaning commentators won't, can't or aren't honest or insightful enough to see that one must shift the axis of analysis and judge Team Obama by different standards. It's hard to imagine judging an American President and his administration this way. But in the age of Obama, anything goes - any lie, any deceit, any trick - anything goes in order to achieve their greater good of a lesser America.
