Affordable Health Care act enrollment lags

The title of this blog is an understatement.  At this point it is unclear whether anyone has successfully been able to enroll in Obamacare via their website.  More than two years in the making with significant resources available, the Obama administration has thus far proved to be unable to have a working website.

With all of the political fighting around this plan plus the hopes of many uninsured people, this is just completely unacceptable government incompetence.  The above it all President has not even acknowledged the issue.  As mentioned in an earlier blog he has referred to it as a positive by saying that the demand for the program overwhelmed the software designed for the website.  What baloney.

How can the administration defend a well meaning health act when it is not even functional.  At this point, timing is everything, and everything seems to be invisible to the Obama administration.  He seems to view himself as beyond any criticism, sacrosanct aobe all
.  They need to get off of their pompous asses and make things happen that matter, even if it involves some minimal negotiation and compromise.  At least give the House Republican leaders a bone to gnaw on even if it has little meat on it.  Humiliating Boehner will only make the Tea Party faction of the House stronger, and further embolden Cruz and Paul in the Senate.
