>>I didn't utter a single word about the website that hadn't been said by many (including supporters of the law). If you read the length TIME online article, the President himself viewed the first few months as a horrible embarrassment.
You're saying it's OK to say one thing and do another because "they did it too."
Sure it was an embarrassment but that's not what you labeled it, contrary to the learned principles you declare today.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
