9. What the MSM isn't telling people
Wed Nov 13, 2013, 06:03 PM
Nov 2013

The Federal Website is for people who live in States that didn't sign on to a state health exchange. Those particular States are for the most part TeaBagger influenced, who are now paying the price for being thickheaded and not creating their own system.

Sorry for the people that are having trouble signing up, but they really should put the blame for their predicament on their state officials.

The exchanges in Nevada and California are running smoothly even according to the MSM.

As for the Federal Exchange I am reminded of the statement of Buzz Aldrin who upon landing on the Moon said something like "Here I am on the Moon, sitting in something that was built by the lowest bidder.."
