But then again, I remember TP threats to destroy ObamaCare any way they could, and they did manage to engineer a government shutdown while they were at it. How much of a stretch is it to at least acknowledge the possibility of another kind of sabotage, such as hacking or deliberately bad programming by people in their employ? The shoe fits the suspect like a glove.

(2 apologies: right now I can't play the video so I don't know exactly what Russia's alleged to have said, and I frequently must beg forgiveness for my mixed metaphors. As a one-time English major I certainly know better, yet remain in love with them like a guy you know is bad for you but he's sooo much fun.)

Meanwhile the GOP keeps bleating that the law is a total disaster and people are getting hammered financially. Lies upon lies upon lies. May there please be a hell so they can rot there.
