Pelosi calls Obamacare website woes ‘incidental’

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi today called the Obamacare website malfunctions “incidental” in the big picture and predicted that they would have no effect on the mid-term elections next year.

“The glitches technologically are incidental to the value of what the Affordable Care Act represents,” she said. “We will get through them. The Affordable Care Act is a great thing for our country and I think it’s going to work just fine ... We find the glitches unacceptable, we want to get over it, but it’s not going to have any impact on the election.”

Pelosi was in Cambridge this morning to stump for Katherine Clark, the Democrat running to fill a congressional seat left vacant by the election of U.S. Sen. Edward M. Markey. Clark, a state senator from Melrose, was defeated early in her political career by republican Richard Tisei, who is considering a run against Congressman John Tierney (D-Salem). Tisei narrowly lost an election to Tierney last November, after Tierney’s wife served a federal jail sentence for helping her brother run an offshore gambling website.

Pelosi voiced support for Tierney next November.

“Tierney is a very strong and respected member of Congress,” she said. “The president praised him the other day. He’s a priority for us whether it comes to the issues that relate to education, health care, national security. He has been a champion.”

Nancy Pelosi says Affordable Care Act website problems 'incidental' to health care law as a whole - November 01, 2013 - Pelosi also addressed the cancellation of plans, saying, as Obama has, that the plans will be dropped so they can be replaced with better ones, which conform to the standards of the Affordable Care Act – for example, with no lifetime or annual limits. “There has to be some clarity about what the dropping is,” Pelosi said. “It is to improve.”

Pelosi is a senile retard.
Is there a filter in FR that would allow me to block any thread that has "Pelosi," anywhere in the title?

Everytime there is a thread on Pelosi I check to see if it is satire.

Yes, just as her lack of intelligence is incidental to the big picture, just as her lack of adherence to the tenets of Catholicism is incidental or the her lack of knowledge of the Constitution is incidental to the big picture.

The ObamaCare health insurance program is misnamed
It recieved no Rebublican votes , not even "Vichy Votes" !!
In two and a half years Obama will just be a bad (bete Noir) dream
but we will still be fighting against socialized medicine known as :

" DEMO-CARE "
Name it !! Make them OWN IT !!

That’s one of her tell words. She likes it and goes to it quite frequently when she’s trying to downplay something.

Most know Polosi’s game but few understand her depth of her belief in Socialism. Republicans continue and will always underestimate her determination to the cause.

Daughter of a political boss, married to a millionaire, guaranteed of reelection in one of the world's safest political districts, leader of a party which has departed reason for ideology, Nancy Pelosi is a modern version of Marie Antoinette. She has no measuring stick with which to measure reality, rather, she is reinforced to measure reality according to the bizarro world she inhabits.

Who is going to call her down out of the stratosphere onto real Earth? The world according to California? The homosexual reality of San Francisco? The neo-communists of the Obama administration? The homosexual world beyond San Francisco? The need to make a real living in the real world? A staff of sycophants part of whose responsibility is to insulate her from the real world? A feminist movement whose view of the world is utterly distorted? A media who spend their energy shaping the world to fit Pelosi?

To turn the analogy over, one can understand why men in the court of Louis XIV war rouge and lipstick if one looks at the court which surrounds Nancy Pelosi.

“Because the Democrats have mastered the art of election fixing. We will never lose again, even if nobody votes for us.”

The Obamacare website malfunctions are "incidental" in the sense that they reflect but the tip of the iceberg of the complex, convoluted, unfair, destructive, and unworkable law.

Perhaps Nancy Pelosi should actually do her job and make sure proposed legislation is read, digested, and understood instead of blindly passing it and blindly supporting an unworkable mess of a law!

Have you read the law, Nancy?

Any similarity between Congress-lady* Nancy and a human is purely incidental.

* Is use “Lady” to upset liberals.
