Headlines like these make me wonder if many in the media are just delighting in creating the mess they've made...and continue to make. If you print bullshit like that, of course some are going to believe it.

Why the hell would Dems get stuck with the blame...unless the media obfuscates reality and creates attention grabbing headlines like those?

3. Forget the little - I have none at all. All about $$$ and ego, nothing about the greater good.

4. Why WOULD Democrats get the blame

I know that that's the spin the Republicans are intended to create and one that some people -mostly Fox watchers- might believe but if and when Republicans actually start hacking away at the PPACA, there will be a direct line from what they do to whatever happens next that Democrats can easily point to.

5. Exactly. Framing the headline like they did is just remarkably...can't even find the words!
