Gasping! We guess it depends on what the meaning of “easy” is.
The White House is in full spin mode Monday morning as the president gets ready to speak about the Obamacare debacle from the Rose Garden.
Nice & cool in DC this morning. 48° at 8AM, heading to 66°. Should be sunny and pleasant for the 1125am Rose Garden event on ObamaCare.

Truth!
Knoller continues:
Seeking to put a lid on the embarrassing reports of problems with the ObamaCare signup website, Pres Obama today announces new fixes.

The WH is inviting the public to check out the improvements the Admin is trying to make on http://t.co/v0y6p1MBiM at http://t.co/HCgDjyfHJL

Through an official, the WH says Pres Obama will acknowledge the website problems are unacceptable, but will accentuate more imptnt goals.

Citizens respond with snicker-worthy results. Sometimes you have laugh so you don’t cry.
@markknoller I was told they were acceptable glitches before they became unacceptable technical problems.

@hale_razor @markknoller Will the President also note that more people have lost their health insurance than have signed up for Obamacare?

Haha! Stop it. Our sides really can’t take much more!
B/c he's magic that way. #PowerOfWords MT @markknoller: RE: problems with ObamaCare signup website, Pres Obama today announces new fixes.

@markknoller Since it's been impossible for the last three weeks anything would qualify as "easier than ever".

.@markknoller "Unacceptable" should be word of the year. Covers everything from Assad to shutdown to crappy websites.

@markknoller Hm, it links to a "Fire Sebilius" petition site…

Snort. If only!

@hale_razor @markknoller So. I just checked the rate. Holy crap, you're not kidding.

Will White House Obamacare flack, @HealthCareTara, continue to remain silent in that regard? All signs point to yes.
But, whatever people. Fixes and such! With some human props. Isn’t that what really matters?
