That one guy who successfully signed up for Obamacare...

The opening of state- and federal-run insurance marketplaces Tuesday saw a combination of huge interest and balky technology that led to a series of glitches, delays and even crashes that marred the first hours of the centerpiece of President Obama's health law.

The problems faced by customers Tuesday echoed those that confronted Medicare beneficiaries when they joined the program's prescription drug coverage plan in January 2006. Then, patients said they were overcharged or couldn't get their medications. Medicare Part D is now one of the health program's most popular benefits, and it has been expanded by the Affordable Care Act.

Anne Filipic, president of the non profit group Enroll America, said many people are undeterred, citing navigators' use of paper applications to get around federal website outages in Florida.

"We have always honestly expected that as this got up and running there would be glitches," says Filipic, whose group is using a grass roots strategy to get uninsured Americans to sign up. "What's most important is that people have a place to turn to when they have questions. Even when people are frustrated they remain enthusiastic and interested."


So in the right wing's fantasy world, the popularity of ACA means that it is a failure. You've lost at every level, including the Supreme Court, and all you have left is your love of being lied to and of lying to others.

No we have a failing ACA database problem. It will implode all by itself.

Maybe if Walter isn't too busy with his latest stage adaptation he will explain the difference between a website and a database to you.

Wayne... go back to Pinecam.

Okay, I'll do it.
The website is like the doctor's receptionist. Right now she's overwhelmed because it's the first week the office is open and hundreds of people want to make an appointment.
The database is like the doctor's filing cabinet. The fact that the receptionist has a dozen people in the office and the phone ringing off the hook has nothing to do with the filing cabinet.

Thanks Brandon. I used to be a programmer. Website is overwhelmed with programs of faulty coding used to build their database. It will implode on itself.

Now do you have anything worthwhile to add to the discussion or are you just here to harass?

Hawaii has to rebuild their system because no one has been able to actually register.

And the cost of these buggy portals? 600 million dollars!
Affordable Care Act? Yeah, right.

Let's see an example of that.

Look, I understand that at the end of your life...with the good years long gone...and the country leaving you behind...you want to believe that there's no future. But there is. It just doesn't include you, and within a generation it won't include the repuglican party either.
