AP REPORTER: OBAMA ‘VERY WORRIED’ ABOUT HEALTH CARE ROLLOUT, WILL ‘HAVE TO’ TAKE BLAME MONDAY
The Blaze ^ | 10/20/2013 | Oliver Darcy

President Barack Obama is “very worried” about the faulty rollout of his signature health care program and will take blame for it during remarks on Monday, the Associated Press’ White House Correspondent Julia Pace said Sunday.

Pace, making an appearance on “Fox News Sunday,” was asked by host Chris Wallace about the mood inside the White House.

“As someone who covers the White House, how worried are they about what’s going on here?” Wallace asked.

“The White House is very worried about this,” Pace said. “They spent a lot of time and money on this program, and you can’t say this has been anything short of embarrassing for the president.”

“He’s going to come out on Monday. He’s going to address these problems,” she continued. “I don’t know how specific he is going to get, but I think this sort of going to be a mea culpa for the president.”

“You expect him really to say we messed up here?” Wallace asked.

“I think he’s going to have to,” Pace answered. “If he comes out and says anything other than that, he’s just going to be ripped apart by the media, by the press.”

Pace is the reporter who on Saturday broke news that nearly half-a-million people have applied for, but not enrolled, in Obamcare.

The president is widely expected to address the faulty rollout of his health care overhaul during remarks on Monday.

great. the unified, 11th commandment wielding, GOP can now broadcast, “we told you so America. see why we are trying to defund obamcare?”

...oops, sorry the GOP senate stabbed the GOP house conservatives in the back and got obamcare funded, so ... nevermind.

Fair enough. Step down and let someone else clean up your mess.

A leader speaks of “responsibility.”
The Obama administration and his MSM boot-licks automatically refer to “blame” instead, as if hinting he is accepting “blame” for someone else’s mistakes. The most childish administration on record.

> He deflects the blame to the Tea Party government shut down.

The low-info voters just don’t seem to grasp the concept that the shutdown only occurred because the Dems and 0 wouldnt agree to a budget and defunding Obamacare which would benefit THEM also. Instead we keep hearing their spoon-fed knee-jerk reactions that 0’s ACORNs style activists keep telling them to chant like mindless parrots.

BO does not get embarrassed, ever. Are you media toadies finding it a little more difficult to spin your sweaty rapturous mindless adoration of this foolish man?

Why would he have to take the blame, when he’s never had to before?

Maybe the real power behind the throne is displeased?

The Obamatollah Regime’s goal is Single Payer.

To get there, they’ve got to collapse the private insurance industry so the gov’t can step in to ‘fill the void.’ That takes time.

Thus, the obvious catastrophe of the broken website is just a bump in the road. Obamacare isn’t supposed to work, but they didn’t plan on it being THIS MUCH of a disaster THIS EARLY.

Thus, they’re pleading ‘technical glitches’ and they’ll kick the can down the road until the day after the 2014 elections, when they’ll drop the act and start publicly calling for Single Payer.

On that day, Obamatollah will emerge from the West Wing in his turban, leap onto his magic carpet, and take to the sky screaming 1-800-F**K-YOU in Arabic.

Wait, I thought according to the left the web site “glitches” were all Republicans fault..I think we all know that these glitches were done on purpose..what the left wants is a single payer system..been hearing those awful two words a lot over the weekend and it’s obvious that is what they want
