Yes, that's right. Speaker of the House John Boehner, who personally and single-handedly shut down the government (by refusing to bring a clean CR up for a vote) in an effort to sabotage the Obamacare has now signed up for ... Obamacare.
Apparently, Boehner -- who actually has a government health plan, and didn't really need to take up any bandwidth on this -- went shopping for on the DC exchange in order to demonstrate that it would be a difficult and frustrating experience. (Speaking of which, let's talk about switching plans with Portico recently, a difficult and frustrating experience in its own way.)
He thought that he had succeeded in, um, failing to enroll, and blogged about it.
And then he discovered that he had in fact enrolled. Meaning that he failed to fail, which seems about like the way Boehner's year is going.
Per the guy at Salon, Boehner probably got a pretty good deal, too. Probably not as good as his government plan, but still pretty good for private insurance.
