Obama Tells Americans to Enroll via Phone, Phone Number Crashes

As Americans become more and more perturbed over the Obamacare exchange website glitches that have crippled the rollout of President Obama’s signature program, President Obama took to the podium on Monday and suggested that Americans apply in person or via phone for enrollment in the Obamacare exchanges. “Nobody is madder than me about the fact that the website isn’t working as well as it should, which means it’s going to get fixed,” Obama said. He then recommended a toll-free phone number to call.
There was only one problem: the Obamcare toll-free phone number was overloaded and immediately crashed. According to Lou Dubois of NBC News, “Call centers now appear overloaded due to volume. ‘Please call back.’” Dubois wasn’t the only one reporting the new glitches. Annie Lowrey of The New York Times added, “For the record, just called 1-800-318-2596, got a busy signal.” Kasie Hunt of NBC News: “Just called the number.

Now that’s funny.
Right now I honestly think we’d be better of if the “Rent is Too Damn High” guy were sitting in the WH!
Now that is my kind of civil disobedience. Brilliant! Let them experience the Obamaphone People first hand.
I just called the number and got through. Of course, I didn’t go more than 30 seconds into the system.
LOL!

Everything Barry touches turns to trash.
If you’d like to make a call, please hang up and try your call again.
I heard that only Republicans have to pay full price...
was it 1-800-f***-yo?
Why should we call 0bamacare? Doesn’t the NSA already have all that information?
Yep.
I’ve heard that anyone over 50 can get through by calling 1-800- CASH-4-CLUNKERS.
Obamacare is not only a FAILURE.... it’s GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION.
I was in the Detroit area this weekend. Local news ran a story of places where people could sign up in person. The workers at these locations wor tee shirts with “Obamacare” on the back. The O was the Obama campaign logo.

LOLO, call 1-800-318-2596
Another reminder that Barry was never even qualified to run a hot dog stand in the private sector.
Standard BS from the one who’s caused whatever most recent fiasco: no one is madder, more disappointed, more concerned, more blah, blah, blah, than me.
If you show up at Nancy Pelosi’s home address she’ll hand you a free wheel of gubmint cheese.
