White House pledges another ObamaCare fix, as Clinton critiques rollout

A blunt critique from Bill Clinton on President Obama's handling of the rocky ObamaCare rollout is prompting the White House to pledge another set of health law fixes -- though in doing so, it could inadvertently build the case for those calling for a delay in the law's implementation.

Aside from scrambling to fix the broken HealthCare.gov website, the administration is now trying to deal with the millions of Americans who have received cancellation notices. On Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said the president's team is trying to figure out a way to offer relief to some of those policyholders.

The statement comes after former President Clinton, in an interview with the site Ozy.com, said Obama should live up to his promise to Americans that if they like their health plans, they can keep them.

"So I personally believe, even if it takes a change to the law, the president should honor the commitment the federal government made to those people and let them keep what they got," Clinton said.

Kill it to after the 2016 election. But first, fire everyone associated with the program.

Yup.

Hussein and the shadowy cabal of leftists who snuck him into office wholeheartedly believe in a familiar a motto — “You can’t make an omelet without first breaking the eggs.”

Carney said they are trying to offer relief to “some” policyholders.

FUBO.

Yeppers! Bill is out in full campaign mode for Hillary. Bill knows where the votes are so next he will be calling for its full repeal by claiming “it's a great idea but implemented so badly that starting over is the only way with Hillary working in a bipartisan way”.

Bailouts on the way. Expect Boner and McConnell to go along.

Yes, I am enjoying watching Bill stick it to him from his safe little perch. Proof Hillary wants to run. (If they know each other, that is.)

LOL, “some”. The “some” are the Obama supporters that lost their coverage.

Here’s an idea: have the military occupy the health insurance companies and force them to provide policies at pre-October prices while still complying with the new regulations!

They’ll make sure, to the best of their statistical analysis ability, that those receiving relief will be their political allies.

Sure but when have you ever seen an Obama or Clinton take the blame? Bill senses this may very well doom Hillary's chances and if not she will still have to work with a super-majority of Republicans so he's throwing Obama under the bus to save the Rats.

The RATs are already planning to blame the GOP as being heartless and cold if they pushback on the ObamaCare bailout to pay the insurance companies to reinstate the cancelled policies. It’s already starting.

There is no fixing ObamaCare, but they can surely destroy our health care system!

No delays. No changes. Repeal or nothing. Don’t let the ‘Rats kick the can down the road to save their skins in 2014.

Good luck with that one. They have overused the blame card and only idiot Libs will continue to fall for it.

Notice that they didn't offer to restore my policy, just offer me "relief." I'm guessing a discount coupon to an Obama fundraiser so it only costs $40,000 a plate...
