I haven't posted a live thread in years but this is to good not to have one. Fox will have live coverage when it happens.
HEY LOOK!!! They found Jimmy Carter’s rabbit.
Who gives any credence to any number or statement this govt puts out?

The liberal media.

And who pays attention to the liberal media? Sadly, the Republican Party.
Fox News Reports: Obama administration says a total of 106,185 people selected a health plan through the ObamaCare exchanges in the first month, a number that falls short of expectations amid widespread website failures.
106,185 “picked a plan”
Epic fail. Titanic disaster. Train wreck.
LOL. So 106,000 “selected” a health plan. How many of them were Medicaid subscribers versus those who bought a plan?
My bet is less than 10,000 people actually paid for a plan.
This is an unmitigated disaster on all levels.
Float plan failure.....lol
Picked a plan means that it is not necessarily paid for?
You are correct; they came up with a 6-digit figure. And give them credit, they picked a number at random that looks like an exact count.
I’m guessing the real number is actually < 50K.
Drudge says fewer than 27k on the Feds website.
Charlie Foxtrot?
None of the 106,000 are Medicaid.
And who pays attention to the liberal media? Sadly, the Republican Party.

Incredibly that seems to be true. The MSM has a powerful influence over the clueless Republican Party. That’s what happens when you don’t have any core values or beliefs.
Only 26,794 have only enrolled through the feds website - Healthcare.gov!
I'd wonder if it was that many. Figure that any numbers released are well-cooked to start with.
None of the 106,000 are Medicaid.
I am betting the Feds are passing out free tacos if they sign up.
OK. Even though we know they are cheating about this here is where they stand:
Goal for 182 days: 6,864,676
"Signups" in 31 days: 106,805
Status: 1.56% of the goal in 1/6 of the 182 day period.
Assuming they are counting a lot of people who will never fork over the $$ it is a fair estimate that they are running at less than 1% of the overall goal. They will be lucky to hit 500,000.
