Apparently the United States can fight a world war in less time than it can put together a successful website.
In an email to Fox News’ Bret Baier, a man identified as Bill from Kentucky certainly took less than three years to put the entire Obamacare fiasco into perspective. Bill compared the time it took to launch healthcare.gov to the United States’ entire involvement in World War II.
“Putting things in perspective: March 21st 2010 to October 1 2013 is 3 years, 6 months, 10 days. December 7, 1941 to May 8, 1945 is 3 years, 5 months, 1 day. What this means is that in the time we were attacked at Pearl Harbor to the day Germany surrendered is not enough time for this progressive federal government to build a working webpage. Mobilization of millions, building tens of thousands of tanks, planes, jeeps, subs, cruisers, destroyers, torpedoes, millions upon millions of guns, bombs, ammo, etc. Turning the tide in North Africa, Invading Italy, D-Day, Battle of the Bulge, Race to Berlin – all while we were also fighting the Japanese in the Pacific!! And in that amount of time – this administration can’t build a working webpage.”
Baier read the email on his show “Special Report” on Friday night, eliciting an astounding outcry from viewers demanding to see Bill’s email online. Their voices were heard as Baier posted the entirety of the email to his blog.
Despite the healthcare exchange site’s snafus of late, the Obama administration has promised a working site by the end of November. The administration reportedly has hired a private firm to handle working out the site’s kinks since President Obama admittedly can’t write code.
Those crazy halcyon days of yore when the press loved this country.
The present administration would not have been capable of winning WWII.
They wouldn’t have won in Grenada.
They are f’ing LOSERS.
That’s assuming they would’ve wanted to win.
Good point!
That is a staggering statement, if true, and it probably is true.
Yeah....and less Americans died as a result.
Yep and WW2 took less time than putting an admitted terrorist, Major Hasan, on trial too
So China must be licking their chops at the thought of having a cyber war right about now.
The Gemini spacecraft, from program announcement to first manned flight, including test flights, took less time than Healthcare.gov.
Be glad we do not have to fight a real power. Obama would lose it big time. Imagine 1941 and Obama is in the White House:
he would beg forgiveness form Tojo for having the Pacific Fleet in Pearl Harbor.Then he would pull all troops out of bataan, and sign a new treaty with Hitler—to keep us out of war.
Soetoro would have been bowing to Hitler and Hirohito just like he did to his muzzie buddies.
The “War on Terror” has lasted 3 times as long as WWII. Same as Vietnam, we are losing that too.
That is what happens when you have people in charge with no will to win and too weak to do what must be done.
Plus, the US Government developed nuclear energy (from a theory), produced 4 working bombs, tested 1 and delivered 2 to Japan in that same time period!
Success is an obscene concept to these people.
Obama would have made Chamberlain look like Churchill.
Another fun fact. Thanks for posting!
Yeah ... well ... maybe so ... but today we got some real leadership!
