20 minutes past the hour you need to know there's
Obamacare is working just fine now you heard me right
Obamacare is working just fine at least in the states that are run by the Tea
Party
now the shutdowns over the media has moved on to their next manufactured
crack entree you know that we have media by
spectacle right the guy have a spectacle meeting at their war in Syria they've
that would've been a great spectacle my lasted a year so
I the spectacle before that was george Zimmerman there was a nice spectacle oh
they had that
short spectacle and the guy who kidnapping *** three women for ten
years
but that spectacle one away he got he died they had the spectacle the shutdown
which they extended for two whole weeks by not telling Americans that have john
bainer just took a vote on a clean CR we've been over
so you know the kabuki dance continued the next manufactured spectacle is gonna
be
home I got the help it changes are working right healthcare not God doesn't
work
right I mean right after this change is open on October 1st
the newspapers and TV network started talking about problems at the website
sir like Windows 8
right stories about health care doc Gove
kinda fell into the background because the shutdown but ever since the shutdown
closed up you know president signed that bill to reopen the government last
Thursday
the cable news this they've decided this is going to be their new spectacle
our website is working so much so that the president had to come out today in
give a speech in talk about it and say nobody's angry about this than me and
therefore you know that things are heads are gonna roll and things are gonna get
done in
other he said said heads are gonna roll but you get the point and some other
problems
you know frankly we're pretty bad health care that covers crashing it was running
slowly
it was sometimes giving users bad information about tax credits and things
like that
so predictably Fox News has jumped on these problems to make it seem like
Obamacare is Joe home to we couldn't kill it so we're going to report on its
death
well you know health care doc gobs
problems are embarrassing and the Obama administration does need to fix them and
they did a
apparently a fairly major patch over the weekend but here's the thing:
and and this is pretty amazing lost in all the very justified talk about scurry
the site is
is any talk about why the website it's a screwy
and who made it that way I mean remember the health care dog I've
website was meant to be a portal
yes I could go to Google and and you
n you say a civil war
Google doesn't bend tell you about the Civil War points you out to other web
sites to tell you about the Civil War
similarly healthcare dug up was supposed to be poorly you go to health care data
governance a
yeah you know here's my social security number here's my address and I live in
Nevada and I would confirm that you were actually a citizen
and they do live in about and then I would send you that to Nevada's website
first post via portal like Google
it was never designed to bring together a bunch a different insurance policies
and put them all in one spot
so when the government for set up the
federal exchange system it thought the states would
you know cooperate set up their own exchanges
so the health care outcomes poor dollars would
verify people citizenship in eligibility sir to the way Google
verifies that you're actually on the internet nearby actually asked that
question
and then hand them off to the website at the state that they live in
and then that State's website would have its own unique database reflecting the
different state standards for income eligibility
Medicaid eligibility different health insurance companies that choose to
participate in that state
so the states would bear most to the burden for building the individual
changes cuz
each one has different needs each one has to have its own website
so the republicans figured half hour we can screw this one up
I mean keep in mind when Republicans are screwing up Obamacare what they're doing
is they're hurting
you and me they're hurting people who need health insurance
but they don't give a rat's per tutti about that this is all a political game
for these guys
so the republican-run states didn't cooperate
tea party Republicans convince thirty-six states
to not set up their own exchanges
most amor have republican governors and they said no to help another on states
and because that happen the federal government had to step in and do their
job for them
with the health care dot gov website which was supposed to be just like
Google to support
spent plugging in a bowl or information about each of these thirty-six states
insurance rules under one site
healthcare dot gov on very short notice building
36 separate web sites are into
healthcare dug up at a damn complicated thing
and worse it around on pay what's wrong
tell you what's wrong Republican state lawmakers decided to sabotage Obamacare
they think they they decided that was more important than helping people get
health care
this is the most important thing I'm gonna say probably 12
certainly up to this point you need to take this and use this
and repeated and Twitter and on Facebook and share with everybody you know in
here it is
went back so-called news republicans talk about how
healthcare dug up is not working they're not complaining
they're breaking
Obamacare's working just fine in the states a set up their own exchanges
that's how it's supposed to work
I mean some other state exchange sites have had a few bugs but every website
does when it first comes out
Jonathan Kahn wrote about this than your renew Republic he said
consumers are getting opportunities than ever had before to shop for insurance
each one with clearly defined benefit 280,000 people have completed
applications for extra insurance
in the state exchanges and others 50,000 have been rolled
question I can hear that on Fox News
so today in a speech at the white house President Obama said that his
administration's gonna fix
healthcare dot gov let's hope that the president and his administration can get
these republican caused
Obamacare rollout problem sorted out quickly let's hope also
but they begin to call out this is the thing that was missing and for me
in the in and i ty watch almost all President Obama's speech this morning
and he never once said the tea party Republicans
who convinced their states not to create exchanges cause this problem
mean he's really good at taking the blame and not blaming other people
but I really would like to see him for others in the administration star
pointing out to these republican states
didn't do exchanges and must dumped at work load on my
on the federal government
you know used point out where the real problem why it's with the teapot
