Ha-ha-ha.  I\u2019m not kidding.  Wolf Blitzer spoke with correspondent Brian Todd about the Obamacare website.  He said, &#8220;Brian Todd has been taking a closer look at this part of the story.  What are we seeing right now well into a week into this new program, Brian?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>TODD:  We spoke to Robert Lushevsky. He is a health care consultant who has clients who are insurers. He says, his insurers who dealt with the administration in the months ahead of time, he says the insurers that he dealt with had contentious meetings with people at HHS and other Health Care officials who were in charge of this. Contentious meetings in the months before this roll out, warning them, &#8220;This isn\u2019t working. It\u2019s not going to be smooth. Don\u2019t do it, right then.&#8221; He says those warnings were ignored. They went full speed ahead, and said, &#8220;We\u2019ll work these problems out.&#8221; Now, there\u2019s been a bit of pushback from the White House.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_82221\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushTruthDetectorWolf.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  So hallelujah.  CNN has just learned that the regime knew it wasn\u2019t gonna work.  The regime didn\u2019t care.  That\u2019s what they won\u2019t admit.  And Wolf, he hears this, and get this.<\/p>\n<p>BLITZER:  If they had three years to get this ready, if they weren\u2019t fully ready, they should accept the advice that a lot of Republicans are giving them. Delay it another year, get it ready, and make sure it works.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Whoa, ho-ho-ho-ho.  No, no, no, Wolf, did you really mean to say that?  Oh, be still here, my heart here.  Did Wolf really say that?  Play that again.  I\u2019m not sure what I just heard what I heard.  Play it again. <\/p>\n<p>BLITZER:  If they had three years to get this ready, if they weren\u2019t fully ready, they should accept the advice that a lot of Republicans are giving them. Delay it another year, get it ready, and make sure it works.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Oh.  Uhhh, this is so unusual.  Wolf Blitzer actually just said, &#8220;If they had three years to get this ready, if the weren\u2019t fully ready, they should accept advice a lot of Republicans are giving them. Delay it another year, get it ready and make sure it works.&#8221;  See, Wolf, they weren\u2019t gonna do that because then the sticker shock &#8212; see, next year\u2019s an election year.  You can\u2019t have what\u2019s happening now happen in an election year, Wolf.  This is why it didn\u2019t matter whether it worked.  They have to roll it out now.  They\u2019re planning on the fact that you and your buddies in the media, and therefore everybody else, will forget this by the time one year from now rolls around.  That website, by the way, the original projected cost, $93 million.  The end cost, $643 million.
