Where the hell is the Republican leadership to counter the administration lies?

Where is the Republican leadership?
Why aren’t they challenging this? Fighting it? Trying to combat the lies? They are letting Obama and the media create the narrative.
You know damn well if for example this were a Republican administration having a press conference touting the benefits of a policy they passed, for example tax cuts, that the democrats would be having a press conference of their own, getting infront of every camera and microphone they have, to discredit the Republican claims. Harry Reid would be calling the Republicans liars, Nancy Pelosi would trot out some human prop like kids and use them as why it is bad policy, Chuck Schumer would be screaming about how much of an outrage this is, etc, and then the media fact checkers would be working round the clock overtime to dig anything up that could discredit the narrative.
Republicans need to do more than just prepared statements released by their public relations spokespeople. That’s not going to cut it, thats like trying to put out a fire by peeing on it.

The have to publicize the numbers right? As in how many people actually used the exchange, that's public information?

THey need to do studies and have the data to back it up first. Let Obama and Co. Obfuscate and look foolish first
It really doesn't matter if people sign up or not..the failure of Obamacare is the high costs and shitty coverage. People are MANDATED to buy insurance or pay a fine. It's pretty telling that they could barely reach 7 million, even if they did reach that number.
Just because someone gets covered doesn't mean they'll like the coverage they get or the cost of it. People tout this as some huge win for the administration, but it isn't.

The Republican leadership/establishment are too busy fighting the Tea Party and Conservatives.

Challenging what? Fighting what?
You haven't even offered anything. You just said "they're lying, somebody do something about it."

I personally do not think that anyone should counter this administration. This entire disaster is the democrats' doing and they need to own it. If any member of the GOP steps in and offers solutions, they will simply default back to the GOP being the problems with the entire clustefrick that is the democrat's affordable care act.
frick them. Let them own it. Elections have consequences. 2014 will be a blood bath.
It's over. Dems are done.

That's because the republican establishment agrees with what Obama's doing. Should be obvious to everyone by now.

Part of the answer to your question relates to the power of incumbency. Dems control the data and the message. Frankly I don't believe any of the numbers because they are liars. In other words, elections have consequences.

There is manner for addressing them properly from the military. It is called the ROAD program, which means "Retired on Active Duty" for the mental status of elder officers not quite being right in the cabeza.
