ObamaCare to Cost 1.16 Trillion Over Next Decade

 Michael Barone has picked up the baton from Charles Blahous of George Mason University's Mercatus Center and is trying to call attention to the real cost of ObamaCare, not the smoke and mirrors, advertised cost.  Click here for the article on RealClearPolitics:  Michael Barone's article on ObamaCare's cost.

As Mr. Barone points out, Blahous' analysis is not getting any serious attention from the White House.  Like the Debt Commission, our President picks and chooses which critiques are to be dignified with a serious response, and in this election year nothing that fails to play to his political advantage is considered dignified enough.  Barone mentions the recent shoddy response to the Supreme Court's critique of ObamaCare as a prime example. 
My favorite quote from Mr. Barone about Mr. Obama:

"Someone needs to tell him that combining arrogant condescension with intellectual shoddiness is not a winning political tactic."
