Full title: Obama flubs during health care conference call with community organizers, claims 'more than 100 MILLION Americans' have enrolled
President Barack Obama told a conference-call audience of progressive volunteers on Monday evening that 'more than 100 million Americans' – in a nation of less than 314 million – have successfully signed up for health insurance via the Affordable Care Act.
And at a time when his signature legislative initiative's website has made the White House the butt of jokes, the website hosting the conference call was plagued with its own connection errors and other malfunctions.
A weary-sounding Obama made his gaffe during the call, hosted by Organizing For Action, the nonprofit successor to his campaign organization Obama For America. The group claimed 200,000 people managed to listen, aided by an RSVP process that included a fundraising solicitation.

“It’s hard to remember all these stupid numbers that the staff keep referring to. You sit there for twelve hours a day....getting six hundred different statistics thrown at you.............”.......
Remember, “Never let a good crisis go to waste”? By throwing around all those confusing numbers, no one can determine what is the correct, imagined or “REAL”.
Hello? No one wants to pound home the save 3000% lie
Now we have this to go with it.
And why not? They never get challenged by the fact-checking {snicker} media.
Reminds me of his claim that 10,000 people were killed by a tornado in a Kansas town with a population of 1,000 in 2007.
When does a SWAG number become an outright lie?
He got the numbers mixed up. 100 million is the number of people who are going to LOSE their current policies.
Well if you add up Medicare, Medicaid you are probably right....
The L.I.V.’s will eat this up as gospel, spreading the ‘good news’ of all that is Obama.... Heck, they probably haven’t the slightest idea if our US population was 100M, 300M, or 5B. These are the folks who voted in Barry as their socialist savior. Retards...
Obummer loves poor people: he has created millions of them.
IF you are going to tell a LIE—might as well make it a WHOPPER!!!
Right.
So really, he’s blithering. He doesn’t know (or care) to distinguish truth from falsehood, he just says whatever is convenient. That makes him a liar and a bullshitter. He’s also a marxist ... and DJ Taylor makes an excellent point in #25.
… During the call,Organizing For Action executive director Jon Carson announced that 'at the national level' his organization would be 'partnering with fantastic progressive organizations' to persuade more Americans to enroll in the Obamacare exchanges.
He named the Center for American Progress,Planned Parenthood ,the Service Employees International Union and Enroll America
The author of the article is giving you mis-info. He has a history of that. He used to be an editor at the Daily Caller and was the man behind story about Senator Menendez and the hookers, which turned out to be false, which is why he longer works there.
Is that “head of household” 100,000,000 or 100,000,000 including dependents?
How many of them are even American citizens?
Are you saying that one of more of the quotes attributed to 0bama is actually fabricated, that he didn’t actually say those things? If so, which quotes do you believe to be fabricated?
deja vu
“”In case you missed it, this week, there was a tragedy in Kansas. Ten thousand people died — an entire town destroyed,”” (Barack Obama)
The real death toll was... 12
math is hard
Heck - sometimes it’s tough just keeping track of what year it is!
“That was one of the major screw ups with the website, which required that the application be filled out before the applicants could browse the plans”
That was not a screw up. That was clearly by design.
Welcome to The Hotel Obamacare: You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.
But at least the oceans have begun to lower and the Earth is starting to heal.
Garbage. If that site has had a hundred million logins I’ll eat my chapeau.
