It looks like the best way to repeal ObamaCare is to implement it

My new American Thinker post.

Even Joe Klein is seeing the handwriting on the wall: ObamaCare is in big trouble! Klein is blaming it on incompetence but I have a couple of words for Joe and other startled liberals who can't believe what they are watching.


ObamaCare is in trouble because it violated a couple of rules that a nice counselor taught me at a high school Junior Achievement class in Wisconsin.

First, don't bite more than you can chew. In other words, who in their right mind thought that bureaucrats could take over 1/6 of the US economy competently? How arrogant are these people?  Is everyone around Obama drinking the same Kool Aid? 

Second, don't promise more than you can deliver even if your audience is stacked with "low information" voters. At some point, even a "low information voter" concludes that the guy at the podium is a charlatan.

My guess is that Senate Democrats will start taking ObamaCare apart. In fact, 79 senators including several liberal lawmakers voted to kill the "medical device tax". 

It will get worse for ObamaCare when Senators and Representatives start getting phone calls and messages from voters complaining that their premiums are going up and employers are cutting back hours to avoid the new rules and regulations.

ObamaCare is Exhibit A that liberalism does not work. However, I just never thought that we would win the argument by letting the liberals implement it.

God works in mysterious ways doesn't he?

Darvish is alsmost perfect and Elvis will be here for a long time

What a day in Rangers' history. 

We started out with the news that Elvis Andrus, the very talented shortstop, signed a deal that will keep him here for another 5 years.   

Yu Darvish, the young pitcher from Japan, had a perfect game going with 2 outs but lost it on a ground ball up the middle.

These two stories have something in common:

1) Darvish and Andrus are the future.  Texas' management is once again demonstrating tha they will spend the money to keep core players.

2) Pitching and defense win championships.  It's fun to watch 3-run homers but good pitching and a solid team up the middle is the right formula to win in October.

We congratulate the Rangers for keeping Andrus here and salute Darvish for an amazing pitching perfomance last night.
