Quote of the Day, Only The New York Times Would Say This Was ‘Paradoxical’ edition.

The New York Times, coming down from its schadenfreude high to discover that, nope, Obamacare is still a steaming, radioactive hot mess that is also on fire*, writes:

Problems finding providers or drug coverage are occurring mainly on state exchanges paradoxically because those Web sites are working better than the federal insurance exchange used by 36 states.

Translation: the states are (marginally) better at complying with federal regulations than the federal government is itself. Raise your hand if this shocks you.

*And how did Barack Obama manage that uniquely mixed metaphor?  Well, to quote the philosopher: it wasn’t easy.  He really had to work at it.
