The latest gaffes come from Democrat Rep. John Dingell of Michigan and Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois. Dingell explains that it takes time for the government to set up a system to "control" people:

Dingell: The harsh fact of the matter is when you’re going to pass legislation that will cover 300 American people in different ways it takes a long time to do the necessary administrative steps that have to be taken to put the legislation together to control the people.
And when questioned about the cost of Obamacare and the new taxes being levied to pay for it, Dingell expalins that this is the cost of the America "we" want to have. With the majority of people opposed to the measure, "we" clearly doesn't include the general public:
Durbin: If you’re making over $200,000 a year, you’re going to pay slightly more in taxes. It’s the cost, I think, of having the kind of America we want to have.
So what do you think? Honest mistakes or moments of honesty?
