The Obama regime claims victory, says the healthcare website met its December goal
Barack Obama promised the American people that the glitches in the healthcare website would be fixed by December 1st and today they are claiming victory.
President Barack Obama’s deputies are claiming they have successfully reincarnated the Obamacare network’s website.
“Twenty-four hours a day, we have rapid effectives response to any problems the instant they appear,” Jeff Zients, a top Obama advisor, told reporters during a Sunday morning press conference. “The site is now stable and operating at its intended capacity.”
However, that claim has been called into question:
The claims of technical success are also questionable.
Zients declined to answer some awkward questions during the Sunday morning press conference. For example, he declined to compare the website’s error rate to the error rate of commercial websites, such as Amazon.com.
Julie Bataille, a spokeswoman for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, declined to say they have met the administration’s November goal of allowing four out of five visitors to enroll on the site. “We’re more in the zone of about 80 percent,” she said, for people “with information in hand.” That measure excludes people who have not gathered the personal data demanded by the website, such as income estimates and tax records, she said.
And on top of that it must be remembered that the Obama regime purposely limited the amount of traffic the healthcare website would receive to make it appear as if the website was fully functioning by delaying the Spanish language portion of the website by one year and prohibiting small businesses from using the website for online enrollment.
And this does not even include the fact that the website is still ripe for fraud and abuse with our personal data not being secured, or the fact that even if you are able to enroll in Obamacare using the website there is still no mechanism in place for you to pay for your new healthcare plan. Do you really have healthcare coverage if you are unable to pay for it? I would guess that you do not.
Oh yeah, in case you forgot, millions of Americans are sill losing their healthcare coverage and are being forced into higher priced plans as a result of Obamacare.
Is this really a victory? I think not. Once again nothing is what it seems in regards to the Obama regime, but what else is new?

In a society that rewards mediocrity this website is a stunning success; it may not work but the bureaucrats want it to and that’s what really matters. How much different than > .500 teams going to the playoffs? This is the forward moving fundamentally challenged, I mean changed, Amerika.

In a country when success is frowned upon I guess this is what is considered acceptable!

Exactly, and yet these people are counted as if they have already purchased their insurance, what is going to happen when they cannot pay?

Kinda like in the Wizard of Oz when Toto pulls open the curtain …ignore the man behind the curtain. The website may have bells and whistles but the operational portion is missing. Remember in revisionist America there are no failures everyone is a winner and gets a prize. BO needs to be given a prize … maybe the infamous Golden Fleece Award!

That’s right, no winners and no losers so we cannot judge this because it wouldn’t be fair!

Wonder just how much the “fix” cost …. over and above the $634,000,000 that is! And how many people will be hit with Identity Theft …. set up by the Con Man @ 1600 Pennsylvania.

While it is expected that an estimated 131 million people will shop online this cyber Monday it is estimated that the Obamascare site can handle several thousand people flawlessly at anyone time with no mechanism available to pay for one’s purchase. BHO Uhm Uhm Uhm.

And the website still cannot handle the 50,000 people the president promised! What a difference between the public and private sector, huh.

It’s interesting how liar’s want everyone else to tell the truth but they’re exempt. Their words are the opposite of the truth – so ‘forward’ means ‘backward’ and that’s what the TV shows and movies depict today – a poverty, serf mentality of the masses, while the ‘special few’ have power (& electricity!). This ‘cardboard’ acting prez, looks & acts more like Malcolm X, who’s religion and ‘anti-whities’ philosophy was to bring down and punish, rather than lift up and have true ‘victory for all’. Just like Jarrett threatened, punishment ‘vill’ be administered, compliments of their ‘human drone’ … the unCare plant.

You are right, Obama wants everyone to be equal but his goal is to bring people down to a common level instead of raising them up to a new level.

I expect this from the administration, it’s tragic that our Country does expect and tolerate this behavior. But the people, my gosh, that so many people accept this, believe this, don’t question it or DEMAND better from our representatives. We are better than this – we are smarter than this. It breaks my heart.

That is the real tragedy here, that so many people have come to expect this that they are no longer outraged!
