Now that we’re all sick of talking about the shutdown, the spotlight is returning to what would have been the top story without the 16-day government closure.
Ladies and gentlemen, ObamaCare is still screwed up.
Get a load of this melodramatic lead: “A broken website imperils the largest expansion of the American safety net since the Great Society.
“More than two weeks into the disastrous rollout of HealthCare.gov, the website created by President Barack Obama's health care reform law still isn't working right….But the administration won't disclose exactly what's wrong with the health insurance exchange website, or when consumers can expect to see the promise of convenient, one-stop shopping for health benefits and financial assistance fulfilled.”
That’s not from some right-wing website. It’s the Huffington Post, whose home page is usually plastered with pro-administration headlines.
I think we have to stop using the word “glitches” to describe what’s going on. This is far more serious than too many people at the outset crashing the site.
