Yet Another Partial Transcript From Darrell Issa

Mother Jones

I’m not feeling too well this morning, so I’m going to take a break. Maybe I’ll be back later depending on how things go.

In the meantime, since I don’t want to leave Richard Cohen at the top of the blog all day, check out Steve Benen here on yet another “partial transcript” from Darrell Issa, who apparently is desperate to drum up some kind of Obamacare scandal but can’t actually find one. So instead he leaked a few pages of testimony from HealthCare.gov’s chief project manager which, as you can guess, left out a few wee details. And which news organization fell for this transparent trick? Did you guess CBS? Congratulations!

Quote of the Day: Chris Christie Suddenly Gets Shy

Mother Jones

From Chris Christie, suddenly getting shy about expressing an opinion on immigration reform:

Well, listen, I can have an opinion about lots of things, George, but we’re not going to go through all that this morning are we?

This came after Christie had wasted a good chunk of the morning by evading three previous questions about his views on immigration. I guess that once you become a serious presidential contender, that old-school Jersey bluntness has to be mothballed. Apparently Christie has caught the John McCain disease.
