Hmm. Funny that. You see, according to Clown Carney the debacle known as HealthCare.gov had 375,000 visitors by noon on Monday. Evidently magic was part of the revamp since they usually don’t have the numbers so quickly. Wink wink, nudge nudge.

A pitiful liberal bitterly clings to the claim:

Bingo.

And a truth-boom shreds the magical claim regardless of its veracity or lack thereof:

Most people trying to sign up on http://t.co/SHUhLTJc4W are not going because they want to, but because the plans they had were CANCELED.
