With website improved, Obama to pitch health plan
Reuters ^ | December 2, 2013 | By Mark Felsenthal

President Barack Obama will try to sell the American people on the relaunch of his troubled healthcare program on Tuesday in a bid to restore confidence in his signature domestic policy initiative and, more broadly, in his presidency.

"In his remarks, the President will discuss the ongoing work to strengthen the website and reach Americans seeking these new healthcare options," a White House official said. "He will also focus attention back on the core principles of reform that have been lost in the attention on the website, and invoke the successes that are already flowing from the law."

Barry has put on his lying face. Everybody faint! We’ve all got healthcare now. Don’t worry. Be happy!

Odd, with the reports on how “well” the site works now, more “customers” (rubes) are the last thing you would think they would want. Then again, the Medicare sign up works...

The difference being that the stuff the Sham Wow Guy is hawking actually works, and it’s cheap to purchase as well.

Too much sell and not enough BUY!

They will find that when people see the prices and the deductibles signups will be dismally low.

Charlotte’s web(site) is in better shape than Obama’s.

In his case, it’s “oh what a wicked web we weave when we try to deceive”.

Obama and his spiderlady.

President ShamWow.

Obama is a clinical retard when it comes to anything technical.
In the past, incompetents who managed to get elected president had enough cleverness, if lacking actual smarts, to find and surround themselves with people who were actually knowledgeable and competent.

He thought "faking it" would work. And it did for so long that applying bigger and bigger lies without consequences emboldened him to jump the shark.

And this time it can't work.
Even the low and no-information voters can no longer swallow the bullshit.*

I’ve been listening to Sirius radio for the last seven years and the only channels I listen to are commercial free music and the Patriot station. I had to switch company vehicles temporarily and had to start listening to local radio again. I am absolutely stunned at how many advertisements I hear promoting healthcare.gov and the musicians they’re using to do this. My jaw hits the floor every time. They’re begging people to come to that website and this was before the “fix” too.

That is ridiculous, how can you possibly afford that?

The dems have literally taken the best healthcare system in the world, and destroyed it.

How many Americans are going to go without health insurance now because these ridiculous plans are so expensive, and there really is no pay-off.

Guaranteed that once Obamacare starts working, after the millions lose their health care, go to sign up for some on the exchanges. They are going to see this and say it’s just not worth it anymore. So 40 million uninsured turns into 200 million uninsured.

I have to pay my bills, feed and clothe myself, house myself, I’m not going to be able to afford health insurance. Oh well.

Yeah... he should pitch it all right. Into the garbage.

Well, when we get numb to evil, sometimes God makes it hit us harder. That’s a sign of hope. If there wasn’t any hope then we’d go softly into that bad night... we’d get all our mercy while here.

It works until the insurance part comes in. Guy here in Georgia even had an id number with humana but they have no record. This website is a turd with a layer of wrapping paper around it.
