The federal health care exchange at Heathcare.gov has accidentally enrolled thousands of applicants in the government's sex offender registry, the latest of many technical failures to hit the troubled site.

Not me.
Yep, satire....

It's a website that FReepers rush to post from, without realizing it's satire.

Hardly!
I guess it is satire, but things have been so bad with ObamaCare, I could believe it.
