It’s October 1st! Is your ObamaCare working? [Darleen Click]

Apparently, as expected.

Kansas Republican Rep. Tim Huelskamp says he faced a lot of problems when he tried to sign up for an Obamacare exchange early Tuesday morning.

According to Huelskamp’s office, the Kansas Republican attempted to sign up at midnight on Tuesday, the day the exchanges open.

“We have been warned time and time again that ObamaCare is not ready for prime time. Well, it turns out that is right,” Huelskamp said in a statement.

“When I tried to sign up for the exchanges, I was met with error messages, unfinished security forms, and misspelled notices at every click,” he continued. “Seeing how poorly this has been implemented, I am surprised that Harry Reid and Senate Democrats are willing to shut down the government over a law that simply is unworkable, unaffordable, and increasingly unpopular.”

    Well, sheee-it, a’course it don’t work for no Kansas Republican!

    He ain’t even spossta find out! That’s why we exempted Congress!

  2. happyfeet says:

    i don’t think you actually get the yummy obamacares until next year right? what we’re doing now is just getting signed up so when they turn on the free healthcare faucet we all get our fair share

    or, you know, maybe

    actually I have no idea what the fuck

    this is a busy week already and i really don’t need a bunch of third world food stamp bullshit on top of it

  3. Yackums says:

    I don’t even know who that’s supposed to be.

  4. richard mcenroe says:

    But…but… it’s a LAW! Like immigration law, and the law requiring Congress to pass a budget each year, and…well… uh… it’s SETTLED LAW! So line up and fill out those inoperative forms, peons!

    I wouldn’t be surprised if the DoJ filed criminal charges against people trying to sign up at healthcare.gov for “cyberterrorism” by “unleashing a DDOS attack”.

  6. Blake says:

    President Disaster Hissy Fit will be accusing the right wing and tea party of sabotaging Obamacare web sites. Also known as “wreckers.”

    The names may change, but the totalitarian playbook remains the same.

  7. Shermlaw says:

    Generally with any commodity, there are three possibilities: The commodity can be cheap (or free); it can be unlimited in supply; and it can be state of the art. Normally, one can only ever have two of those things at any given time. If it’s cheap and unlimited, it will be crap. If it’s cheap and state of the art, it will be rationed. If it is unlimited and state of the art, it will be expensive. O-care has managed to create a system where health care is now more expensive than before, rationed and crap.

    It’s a fucking economic miracle, that only an authoritarian government can conjure.

    Attention:
    Due to overwhelming interest in the NY State of Health – including 2 million visits in the first 2 hours of the site launch – the health exchange is currently having log in issues. We encourage users who are unable to log in to come back to the site later when these issues will be resolved.

    Great. And I thought I’d be able to obtain a pass word.
