At one point Thursday, Boehner tweeted his frustration—“Guess I’ll just have to keep trying”—along with photos of himself at a computer and the error message he says he received. The House speaker has 583,000 followers on Twitter.

...troubled federal website...

What a bunch of morons.

A website is a computer program. It can't be "troubled." It doesn't have a brain.

The administration that promised to create it is "troubled." Of course, saying that would run counter to the AP's rules of style... and the wishes of the Obmamma administration.

The error read:

“Our records indicate your are a registered Republican. We are, therefore, unable to sell you insurance until you turn over all your guns to us and promise never to vote Republican again. Remember, we’re watching you.”

What am I missing? Why would Boehner register himself for Obamacare? It’s a stink to high heaven program with stink to high heaven affects on all Americans. If it was just to confirm firsthand that the software aspect is slow, he’s truly a low intellect.

Boehner got an email from someone monitoring his Twitter account. $50 bucks says he is not signed up.

Why does he never get seriously primaried?

When we guys were ‘tweenagers’ we had to worry about being called on by the teacher and having to stand when tapped by the “Wood Fairy”, and now that all of that is behind us we have this walking, talking, pastel-tie human Boner to worry about.

After he contacted the Help Desk, I wonder if they “froze out” all IP Addresses [except his] in order to have him be able to enroll - without the normal congestion on the web site ...

At MCI, we caught the IT Dept. rigging a final acceptance test of a software platform for my dept. in much the same way ...
