Rush hasn't been this flummoxed since he accidentally let his NAMBLA membership lapse. [View all]

The ACA is working. The target number looks like it's going to be reached. The increase in health care costs has slowed dramatically. Limbaugh knows he has to lie, but what lie to tell? "Cooking the books" sounded promising, but there's not a shred of evidence to support that, and it doesn't appear to be taking hold. Lying about the number of sign-ups can be easily disproved. He could try to trot out another phony horror story, but people are getting tired of being laughed at after being exposed as either fools or bullshitters.
What's a paid professional liar/propagandist to do?
