@CuffyMeh That dude's a real useful idiot. All that matters is the final (phony) outcome, not all the incompetence & lies that preceded it?

Evidently. At least according to Politico’s Glenn Thrush, who has long suffered from a bad case of sycophantitis. Check out his latest fit of lapdoggery:
So I just woke up from a six-month coma and noticed Obamacare more or less hit its 7 million registration target. Did I miss anything else?
— Glenn Thrush (@GlennThrush) April 1, 2014
Pitiful.
@GlennThrush You're still in a coma.
— Donna (@DonnaB511) April 1, 2014
@GlennThrush Nah. Just the return of the Cold War and #Russian adventurism. That's all.
— John Bechard (@JohnBechard) April 1, 2014
Heh.
Citizens rightly gave him the business.
@GlennThrush Do you find bit strange WH didn’t know enrollment #s for months and is giving out real-time updates today?

Bam!
.@GlennThrush 7 million gross, how many net? How many have paid, also how many lost coverage due to Obamacare? #details #doyourjob

Oh, he is totally doing his “job”:
Nope. Sources say go back to sleep. @GlennThrush pic.twitter.com/RTLVaI7Sqm
— VACUOUS CIPHER (@THE_DAILY_BLEAT) April 1, 2014
Perfect.
@GlennThrush Yeah, you missed the part where that 7 million figure isn't backed up by any hard data whatsoever.
— LetItBurnUSA (@LetItBurnUSA) April 1, 2014
@GlennThrush Yep. You missed the 33 million still uninsured.
— TheWordOfDog (@Lubyanka13) April 1, 2014
@GlennThrush It also met its target of making health insurance affordable. #ohwait

@GlennThrush you missed people having freedom of choice.

This Twitter user helpfully sums things up for Thrush:
@GlennThrush A couple of things. You can't keep your plan. Or your Dr. Not gonna save $2500. And 6 million + lost their insurance. 🙂

Get it now, lapdog?
Yes, @GlennThrush . Nobody wears fedoras anymore.
— Get It Right in 2016 (@DraftRyan2016) April 1, 2014
Speaking of fedoras, here is an exit theory that might explain Thrush’s absurdity.
@CuffyMeh Maybe the fedora covers the bandages from blunt force head trauma? Because that would explain a lot.
