I agree. I still suspect that there were repub. plants on the team building the website. Obama dropped the ball by not checking it first, but I don't see how that website could have been so screwed it up if it were not sabotaged. I'm not happy with ACA but it's a place to start.
What we have come to expect from the congress is name calling, posturing, blaming, obstructing, and undermining everything. The world hears what our ambassadors and Sec. of state says and then hears congress people second guess, accuse and otherwise undo everything. We look like i***ts.

Every condominium board in the nation has a list of projects with cost and time estimates, contractor’s bids, zoning approvals, etc., etc. But tax cutters have reduced the federal (and many state) governments to a level that, outside of the DOD, we have no registry of all the nation’s infrastructure with state of condition, maintenance schedule, plans, available contractors, pending contracts, environmental impact, regulatory and zoning approvals, etc., etc. Small government zealots have starved the beast into imbecility!

It’s a wonder that the stimulus accomplished what it did:

The government does not have a software capability. It is forced to hire private enterprise to create a system. And it must hire the lowest bidder, who has to cut corners to make a buck.

We have to go back to civil service government employees who take p***e in their work.

Conservatives are not patriotic. They are just cheap and stingy.

You get what you pay for.

The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country. – A. Lincoln

Ah yes, what can be accomplished with bi-partisanship (RINOS and DINOS). You make such an excellent argument.

Just think how WWII would have been so much more difficult to win if Republicans had stood their ground about keeping the US out of "Europe's War" known formally as the America First Committee.

Just think how much longer it would have taken to defeat Germany if Republicans would have insisted on a balanced budget because economic catastrophe would soon occur due to the unsustainable debt spending rising first above 80% and later 113% of GDP.

Considering how much was accomplished with the sides united, I wonder how much better that obamacare site would have been if both sides had worked together as they did together in support of WWII?
