Republican talking points as if they were truth. They are desperate to build up the Republican Party for next year's election.

as they try to confuse people into believing that Healthcare.gov is the PPACA. If they want to do that, fine. But they are principally obligated to report on the successes of the PPACA through the State exchanges. And that is something they're not doing at all.

So we can safely conclude that every American propaganda outlet (including M$NBC) is out to bolster Republicans and take down Democrats. Let's hope they'll fail as miserably next year as they did last year.

and pissed that the ACA is working perfectly now. He wasn't planning to have to report THAT so he makes up by trashing President Obama on bullshit. I can't stand Todd.

See because they brought in the private sector ( who set up the website to start with) to fix the problem that means they admit that the " government run system" doesn't work.

Uh Chuck, it isn't government run. It is FINALLY sort of regulated but it is still private insurance providers ..... You miserable drip

how Republicans keep getting a "pass" for their obstructionism and lack of accomplishments but they continuously hammer President Obama as though he can somehow (they never explain how) make the Republicans cooperate with him and that their failure to do their jobs is his fault. Because, he's certainly been willing to give the Republicans a lot to get their votes but nothing has worked. It sickens me that the Republicans' generic ballot numbers are up because of the ACA rollout and how they plan to parlay those problems into more votes next year. I would like to think that the ACA rollout won't be an issue by next November but the Republicans have an annoyingly effective tactic of making hay out of issues that have long since passed their expiration date (i.e. Benghazi- though most people never really latched on to it).

The ACA is a DIASTROUS failure!

EPIC failure

Economic BEATDOWN!

Day after day we are subjected to words which convey a doom and gloom scenario where none exist.

I have to say that the intent is to topple the government just for a news story.

Have I got that right Lara Logan?
