October 30th, 2013 08:02 PM ET 41 minutes ago Biden apologizes, says Obama tried to log on to health site

Posted by CNN Staff

(CNN) – President Barack Obama tried to log onto the Obamacare website, according to Vice President Joe Biden, who added his name to those apologizing for the online snafu that has rocked the introduction of the administration's sweeping health care initiative.

"The President tried to get online and my daughter tried to get online. I did not, because it was clear that I wasn't getting online," Biden told CNN's sister network HLN on Wednesday.

The Vice President said Obama was told several weeks before the October 1 launch that the website was "ready to go."

"Neither he and I are technology geeks and we assumed that it was up and ready to run," Biden said.

"Neither he and I are technology geeks and we assumed that it was up and ready to run,"

But I recall, during the first election they told us Obama was tech savvy.

“Neither he and I are technology geeks and we assumed that it was up and ready to run,” Biden said.

End users aren’t supposed to be technology geeks. Once the geeks are through programming, applications like the Obamacare system are supposed to be designed for use by regular non-geek people. If regular people can’t use it, then the project is a failure.

What Biden and Bummer can do is basically irrelevant since both appear to have lower IQs than general population.

I'm guessing that Obama couldn't get past the personal data screens?

If Biden were remotely aware of the concept of what a loop was, one could say that he was, ‘out’ of it.

To be fair to plugs, let’s just say that he is out.
