At the White House: Obamacare success stories that aren't ".......In the days since the problems with the Obamacare website became too large to ignore, defenders of the administration cited the many people they said have already benefited from the new exchanges, as well as from the law as a whole. Presumably, the White House had many success stories to choose from in deciding who would stand behind the president at Monday's event. But some of the successes they chose don't seem to be successes at all."......

Sebelius to testify on ObamaCare's rollout, but not this week "........... HHS press secretary Joanne Peters said the agency is working with House Republicans to find a “mutually agreeable date in the near future.”

Boehner on Monday ripped into Sebelius, arguing she should testify to give "straight answers" to the public on the problems with ObamaCare's rollout.

He also criticized comments made Monday by President Obama, who said he too was frustrated that people can't enroll in ObamaCare because of problems with its website.

“If the president is frustrated by the mounting failures of his health care law, it wasn’t apparent today,” Boehner said in a statement responding to Obama’s comments. “Americans are looking for accountability, but what the president offered today was little more than self-congratulation. Instead of answers, we got well-worn talking points. Instead of explanations, we got excuses.”..............

If Obama were forced to delay ObamaCare because of the problems Ted Cruz will come out smelling even more like a rose, John McCain and King will have egg on their face.

No delays. Let America choke on it. After all, we need to eat our peas. Delays only help Obama and the Democrats.

Voters need to feel the full fury of this disaster.

It can’t be delayed without an act of congress. Of course niether could the employer mandate, legitimately. Still there is a heavy taste of irony in the scenario being played out.

"If we don't have it fixed in time is a hypothetical that we don't expect to encounter," Palmieri said. "We're taking this day by day"

Self Contradictory!

You must consider failure when you don't know day to day whether you will EVER succeed.

Unless you don't mind blindly driving a car off a cliff. Which isn't out of the question with this crowd. Indeed, destroying America is THE goal.

I don’t want it delayed. I want people to be faced with high cost sticker shock BEFORE the 2014 elections, not after them.

Obamacare is going to cause economic ruin. Monies normally spent for food, clothing, goods etc will go to the government coffers and like all government money...you are the loser.

Look at all the money wasted on this climate cr**, on GM...

The first thing I would do if I were President would be to declare English the official language (as intended).

Next...get rid of the EPA, Education Dept and one more...I forgot.

Damn right I would vote for Perry.

Oh no. No delay now!

It's the Law of the Land. Passed by Congress. Signed by the President and approved by the Supreme Court.

No delay. It must be implemented now.

Implemented in its entirety, including the clause that forbids any and all exemptions.

Carney did not directly say the individual mandate could be delayed, but he did say that if people could not get access to ObamaCare, they would not be penalized.

So, you will delay the mandate!

So, Ted Cruz was right!

“Carney hedges on whether ObamaCare mandate could be delayed”

I object to the title, mandate is sexist and outdated, we must stop using such male orientated words :)
Why would anyone expect Carney to speak truthfully on any subject?

If Obama was a bigger man, he would just come out and say it wasn’t ready and we are putting the whole thing off a year (or even bigger would be to say we are suspending it and going back to the drawing board).

They may be about to call ‘time of death” on that gomer.
