Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, is it?

I didn't say anything about "failure". That was you.

What I said was........regardless of whether they actually have 500,000 signups by 10/31, the Obama Administration will lie and say they did. Maybe it's something in the Chicago water from his epic stint there, but Obama has proven to be very adept at lying, especially when he needs to save face.

But let's face it -- if they had had strong numbers after the first week -- ESPECIALLY with all of the glitches -- the Obama Administration would have been holding presser after presser, touting how "the masses were clamoring for Obamacare."

Remember iTunes first week sales? That truly was a great thing for the American people, and the numbers proved it.

1,000,000 downloads of iTunes in the first three days
1,000,000 songs sold in the first three days

Even after Obama and his goons can't/won't state how many signed up on the site?

Sounds like a setup for a political lie to me. Of course that is what this administration does best, LIE.

if the admistration has already admitted the site is messed up..why would they have to lie or coverup?

what does it matter if its 5 or 5000 sign ups in Oct? the site is messed up.

for those that didint even want the damn thing to roll out, why do the sign up numbers mean so much?

I wonder why...not really.

I'll be retiring by March to drastically reduce my taxes and to get subsidized insurance.

Pay up millenials.

We did that in the spring. I won't be able to collect anything but why the hell bust our butts for so the government takes it. No thanks, I am not interested in supporting parasites any more than I already have.

Goingback, you'll love it.

That would be a possibility....except that there are no facts when it comes to D.C. You can assume a lie and you'll be far ahead of the game.

Whether they hit the number or not, the Obama Administration will either:

1) Lie, and say they did
2) Deflect blame to something -- or someone -- other than their own ineptitude


My money is on #1, because after all, that's what they do best.
What a joke. 50,000,000 uninsured and Obama is spending $3 trillion on 500,000?
