Blitzer: Delay Obamacare
National Review Online ^ | October 9,2013 | Andrew Johnson

Posted on 10/09/2013 12:30:16 PM PDT by Hojczyk

CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer said the White House should take Republicans’ suggestion and delay Obamacare due to the poor performance of the websites that are facilitating it. “If they weren’t fully ready, they should accept the advice that a lot of Republicans are giving them — delay it another year, get it ready, and make sure it works,” Blitzer said Wednesday.

“They know how to do it, but if they didn’t get it ready on time, then maybe fix the problem and make sure people don’t have to worry about it,” he added.

Since the online exchanges launched last week, users across the country have complained about the website’s glitches. The Obama administration says it does not know how many people have enrolled in a new plan through the exchanges.

It’s all moving too slow for me...

Patience, Grasshopper. It was five years between the Stamp Act and the Boston Massacre. It was another five years from then until Concord and Lexington. It was yet another fourteen years before the Constitution went into effect.

I was referring to the federal exchange, obviously.

The state exchanges are a little more manageable. Though my state’s was over-subscribed in the beginning, indications it is settling down and working pretty much as spec’d.

It really is questionable to design for that initial surge that you will likely never again see. Maybe A-L on Monday and M-Z on Tuesday?

Let it go it will kill the rats in 2014..

I agree completely. Let this thing continue. It's a political victory for the GOP. Why let the Dems off the hook for a year?

“once the country is penniless the federal government will have to create a new program to put a chicken in every pot.”

Yep, and they’ll get those chickens by sending an army to countries that have them.
It’s an old story no one remembers.
