Down with HUACA (Hussein's Un-Afforable Care Act).
Posted on 10/21/2013 10:00:18 AM PDT by Nachum
Speaking from the White House Rose Garden on Monday morning, President Obama addressed the website glitches and delays that have plagued the initial rollout of the Affordable Care Act, declaring the “product” to be good and reminding his audience that the healthcare law is “not just a website.”
Since its October 1 rollout, the online registry for the Obamacare health exchange has been beset by website glitches, long wait times, and clunky programming. “You probably heard the new website where people can apply for health insurance and browse and buy affordable plans in most states hasn’t worked as smoothly as it was supposed to work,” the president conceded. “The number of people who visited the site has been overwhelming which is aggravated some of these underlying problems.”
“Let me remind everybody that the Affordable Care Act is not just a website,” he declared. “It’s much more.”
The president touted that, outside of the website issues, there are benefits from Obamacare that he believes many do not know about — “they’re not going anywhere and they’re not dependent on a website,” he said. “In Oregon, for example, the number of uninsured people by 10% just in the last three weeks. Think about that. That’s 56,000 more Americans who now have health care. That doesn’t depend on a website.”

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
ITS NOT JUST A WEBSITE, ITS A DISASTER THAT ONLY KEEPS GETTING WORSE.
Yeah, it's a method to funnel billions of dollars to his crony supporter groups, while collecting huge amounts of personal information from the applicants.
Pssssst...Barry... five million code lines in NOT a glitch.
I have always said that these guys are not only the gang that can’t shoot straight, they would foul of a nocturnal emission.
If this is “good” just think much better a real health care program with real professionals would be like.
Down with HUACA (Hussein's Un-Afforable Care Act).
I can’t believe he called it Obamacare. This would be the first time he took ownership of anything.
The front end “looks” good.
It’s the back end you have to be severely concerned about. Not to mention the thousands of security holes that will be found.
Anyone wanna take bets as to how long the data will be breached and posted somewhere?
No, Bammy, the product is a giant steaming turd.
My bad, he doesn’t take ownership of this either.
The “sham wow!” President.
So now he’s a venture capitalist running a business.
Welcome to the real world, kid. The crap you sell has to work or the customers get bent.
Suggestion: just leave it to the professionals in the private sector, you’ll be amazed how well it works.
LOL
The Commies still look the same, 50 years later!
Whatta buncha creeps
If it such a good product then why don’t you and Moochelle and the kiddie get on it along with congress and the rest of federal employees.
Any focus on the failures of ObamaCare web sites is misplaced. Even if signups when smoothly and 100% got their coverage, the system itself is corrupt, economically disastrous and morally corrosive. It is the most grave threat to the very meaning of being “American” since the passage of the Federal Reserve Act, the income tax and the Great Society.
But don’t take it from me. Put socialism in another context, on another continent, with a different people, and see its effect on them.
Václav Havel was a playwright, essayist and a poet. He was also the last President of Czechoslovakia before it was broken up into the Czeck Republic and Slovaka.
He lived under suffocating socialism. He found it to have a horribly corrosive effect on humanity. In his famous essay, Power of the Powerless, he wrote:
“...[it] touches people at every step, but it does so with its ideological gloves on. This is why life in the system is so thoroughly permeated with hypocrisy and lies: government by bureaucracy is called popular government; the working class is enslaved in the name of the work ing class; the
complete degradation of the individual is presented as his ultimate liberation; depriving people of information is called making it available; the use of power to manipulate is called the public control of power, and the arbitrary abuse of power is called observing the legal code; the
repression of culture is called its development; the expansion of imperial influence is presented as support for the oppressed; the lack of free expression becomes the highest form of freedom; farcical elections become
the highest form of democracy; banning independent thought becomes the most scientific of world views; military occupation becomes fraternal assistance. Because the regime is captive to its own lies, it must falsify everything.
It falsifies the past. It falsifies the present, and it falsifies the future. It falsifies statistics. It pretends not to possess an omnipotent and unprincipled police apparatus. It pretends to respect human rights. It pretends to persecute no one. It pretends to fear nothing. It pretends to pretend nothing.
“Individuals need not believe all these mystifications, but they must behave as though they did, or they must at least tolerate them in silence, or get along well with those who work with them. For this reason, however, they must live within a lie. They need not accept the lie. It is enough for them to have accepted their life with it and in it. For by this very fact, individuals confirm the system, fulfill the system, make the system, are the system.”

“Cash for Clunkers” comes to mind.
Odd, that for decades and decades, insurance companies were able to run their companies and websites all by themselves without any government assistance and they worked...................
