Hoo boy. This is pretty painful:
http://t.co/N6lfMdm0eA is a disaster.
But isn't the solution to a broken website to fix the website, not take away people's healthcare?

OK, so first of all, spelling matters. As this tweeter points out:

True story:
Though, to be fair, prospective Obamacare applicants are probably pretty used to seeing a screen like that anyway.
The real stupidity lies in the second half of Legum’s tweet:

Seriously. No amount of “fixing the website” could fix the disaster that is Obamacare. Moreover, “health care” and “health insurance” are not the same thing. Legum, like so many on the Left, just can’t seem — or don’t want — to understand that.
Health insurance isn't health care, guys. @sigfreyd @JuddLegum

@JuddLegum It's health insurance, not healthcare, and they already mandated mine away. You seemed to have no problem with that.

That’s been happening an awful lot lately. Consumers all over the country are losing their existing coverage thanks to Obamacare.

Hey @JuddLegum, are you saying that if we scrap ObamaCare, I lose my health insurance? Because that's funny.

Sigh. Progs like Legum seem to think that Obamacare must be saved at any cost, or else we’re doomed.

But it’s Obamacare that’s dooming us.

@RBPundit Bless your heart @JuddLegum . You see, it's not a "website problem". The WHOLE concept is FUCKED! A fraud and generally bad.

Maybe Judd just needs some more time to think about it:
