Obama: I'd fix HealthCare.gov myself, "but I don't write code"

President Obama wanted to go in himself and fix glitches that have plagued HealthCare.gov since its rollout last month, he told a crowd Friday at the Port of New Orleans, "but," he added, "I don't write code."

The president couldn't ignore altogether lingering dissatisfaction with the botched health insurance exchanges, despite that the crux of the speech was intended to move back on the offensive with other aspects of his second-term agenda - specifically, job growth through investments in infrastructure and increasing U.S. exports.

You can’t wipe your own arse without reggie love working the Charmin. FUBO!

“but I don’t write code” And thank God for His merciful blessings.

Actually I'd give my right arm and perhaps some other body parts if he had chosen a career writing Java code instead of going into politics.

I am in my office with Obama groupies in several next door labs and offices as well, and as I read this I had to nearly bite my tongue in half stifling my reaction in order to avoid drawing unnecessary attention to myself.

Hey there is Hannity’s CLOSE FRIEND JOE LIEberman!

[TangoLimaSierra]

Yeah, well, I’d work at NASA but I’m not a rocket surgeon.

“just because the program compiled, doesn’t mean it works”

Yeah compiling is like a spell checker for the “words” used in the logic statements; means zero about the accuracy of the computations, data fields, etc.

I have serious doubt that this clown can even read cursive.

“Didn’t know you could write code in Arabic.”

{goto Allah}

[mikrofon]

I thought he was a published expert on the topic??

[RetiredTexasVet]

Probably correct as most programmers don’t use crayons, felt tip markers or white out on their computer terminals.

“Obama: I’d fix HealthCare.gov myself, “but I don’t write code”

But, but, but, youre a community organizer!

They could have gotten a workable website online easier and cheaper.

Of course I don’t want it to work. It’s communism pure and simple.

Hopefully (doubt it though) some low IQ voters might wake up and see large government is totally incompetent.

Why doesn’t he just sleep at a Holiday Inn Express?

-— But I’m sure that if he did write code, it would be magnificent -—

When I meet cancer patients, I tell them that I would be happy to do the necessary surgery, if I only knew how. This brings them great comfort, at least in my imagination.

And that’s what really counts.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

-— This is the high end of “damaged by his daddy abandoning him” -—

He’s the Roger Waters of politics.

[alley cat]

Does he read cursive?

[SparkyBass]

I'm not saying he's into himself, but...

[stylin19a]

“I don't write code.”
he should have finished off with:
We used Open Source and removed the the name and claimed it as our own.

[Political Junkie Too]

I'd fix HealthCare.gov myself, "but I don't write code"

Illogical... Illogical.. Does not compute... Norman, coordinate...
