Tom Brokaw said Sunday on NBC’s Meet the Press that he couldn’t believe the President’s hands-off approach to the roll out of his signature legislative accomplishment.

After playing a montage of clips from President Obama’s Thursday press conference in which he claimed responsibility for the health care law’s failure, host David Gregory asked panelist Brokaw if this was the low point in the Obama presidency:

This is certainly a low point at a critical time, coming into the 2014 elections. And a lot of Democrats are beginning to bail on the idea of Obamacare. What’s striking to me about that statement, ‘We should have been aware’, I would think, given the importance of Obamacare, or the Affordable Care Act, eight months ago the President would have started every meeting with "How are we doing? Is that going to be ready? That’s going to be our big play for the second term." And demanding, from Kathy Sebelius and other people who are involved in it that they were ready, and sending people over there to take a look at the roll-out. That it suddenly landed in the way that it did, in utter chaos, and it’s not going to be an easy fix, is just inexplicable.
