OK, so its Jonah Goldberg Day on GraniteGrok

hey, if it is good, it’s good – and our job to bring it here (emphasis mine):

That’s what makes the reaction to Obamacare so interesting. Several times now, the president has endeavored to explain that it’s not that big a deal millions of Americans are losing their health-insurance plans against their will. The people who had plans they liked didn’t understand that the plans they liked were no good — they were the actuarial equivalent of trans fats, don’t you know? The fact that the people who held them liked them, thought they were good, and wanted to keep them doesn’t count for much, because the government knows best.

The president can’t say it as plainly as he would like, because to do so would be to admit not only that he lied to the American people, but that he thinks the complainers are ignorant about their own needs and interests.

That is Progressive Socialism hubris:

You don’t know what is best for you (but I do and will ram it down your throats – and you will like it, you”ll see)
