It was appalling enough to learn that the outrageously expensive and laughably dysfunctional ObamaCare website was primarily built by a foreign contractor on a no-bid basis, apparently because Michelle Obama’s crony Toni Townes-Whitley had been made a senior vice president. More appalling still is the milieu in which they became pals. According to the archives […]

Is this a random act of journalism or do the writers understand that Obamacare is a really bad law which is causing a lot of problems and will only get worse? (Politico) President Barack Obama has said it again and again: Obamacare is more than just a website. And he’s right – the Affordable Care […]

Structurally, the foundation of Obamacare was always built on sand and the website woes are actually exacerbating the problem.

Shear found a way to criticize that none else had thought of (NY Times) The implicit promise of Barack Obama’s presidency, delivered during the 2008 campaign and again repeatedly since then, […]

The bad news keeps coming for: Obamacare. Besides the humiliation of a technical rollout that’s forced the president of the United States into the role of: Rose Garden pitchman, the law suffered a setback in court Tuesday that could mean even worse news as 2014 gets into gear. U.S. District Judge: Paul Friedman: turned down a Justice Department request […]

I’m not a fan of Jon Stewart. Not only is he pompous, not all that funny, and he likes to be taken seriously, but when he gets called on it, he falls back to, “I’m just a comedian.” Setting that aside, liberals love him, but they probably didn’t love him so much when he was […]

If it is run by the federal government, it is run by liberals. Liberals are by definition morbidly obsessed with race and committed to benefitting other groups at the expense of whites, who according to their bizarre ideology must be punished for being racist. Thanks to Obama and his collaborators, this will soon affect your […]

After paying the Canadian firm CGI hundreds of $millions to build a website that should have cost only a tiny fraction of that, the Obama Regime has tacitly admitted that HealthCare.gov is a total failure: The Department of Health and Human Services said Sunday it was bringing in outside help to resolve some of the […]

As Obamacare ramps up with huge numbers moved to Medicaid and Medicare, along with those who will obtain insurance through the Exchanges (eventually), consumers should be prepared for lots and lots of failed expectations.

We’ve been talking about the massive failures of the Exchange websites, which are part of the reason there have been so few completed applications where people actually obtain health insurance. But, what happens when people actually get the insurance? How do docs feel about this? (NY Post) New York doctors are feeling queasy about ObamaCare […]

The hit parades on the “Affordable” Care Act just keep coming. Healthcare.gov apparently violates a copyright. One design firm removed all references to its work on the website. Tech experts say the entire website needs an overhaul. Buried in the code we find that you should have no reasonable thought that your information will be […]

About 25,000 people have signed up despite the problems caused by the incredibly glitchy, constantly crashing website. However, there’s a little problem with the people signing up. Enrollments in health care plans through Washington state’s new health care exchange continue to increase, but it turns out a majority of the enrollees so far won’t be […]

When we’re talking about Obamacare, the “Affordable” Care Act, the massive failure of the websites are simply a result of how bad this law is. How unwieldy. And the perfect symbol of failure. Here’s the Chicago Times Editorial Board (Chicago Tribune) If you’ve tried to sign up online for health coverage under the problem-plagued Obamacare […]

When Obama was trying to sell Obamacare to the American people, he promised it would be all things to all people. It would be easy to use, save people $2500 a year, you could keep your doctor…it went on and on. Unfortunately for all of us, none of it turned out to be true. However, […]
