GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) - The Affordable Care Act website will be taken down this weekend so experts can try to fix some of the glitches in the system.

It doesn’t “have glitches”, it *is* a glitch.

While you’re at it can you just go ahead and take The Affordable Healthcare Act down too?

The sites are haunted by the ghosts of the fallen soldiers who were denied a proper burial by Obama.

Any repair work they do will probably ensure the new voters are registered in duplicate just like the insurance enrollees.

Now that the site doesn’t work, everybody can just send in the $95 tax. Wasn’t that the goal in the first place?

It's only $95 if you're poor. If you're middle class it's 1% of your income the first year, double that the second...

At what point is it no longer a ‘glitch’ but rather a ‘complete failure’?

It's not a glitch, it's a feature.

But what about those that have to work during the week and only have time off during the weekend to try to register for this required program. Aren’t single women and children hurt the most?

What they’re going to do is “fix” it by going full compulsory socialized medicine.
