Here’s some links that I’ve had up in my browser window for a few days:

• Surprise, Obamacare costs more, helps fewer than originally predicted

The announced expectations was that it would attract 375,000 people by the end of the year.  It has only 8,000 enrollees, which means it missed its mark by 97.9%.  If any other major and controversial government program missed its delivery goals by 97.9%, would the Post report it in such anodyne terms?  For instance, if 97.9% of a military-weapons system failed to get delivered on time, how would the Post report that?  I doubt that the opening paragraph would be that “the Pentagon didn’t get as many artillery weapons as expected.”

• The 1950s were horrible, until they weren’t or Frank Rich is a hack.
• Where does 2010 fit on the warmest year list? (Hint: Don’t guess high)
• TSA goes after a pilot for pointing out the insanity of airport security.
• Eric’s Last Wishes – have a box of tissues handy.
• What is marriage? (Not to be confused with: Why the proprietor of Hoystory is still single.)
• After you read that last one, you might want to read this one.
• So, how’s that Gitmo thing working out for President Obama?
• Stephens Media used to be Donrey and that was enough reason not to like them before.
