TV can come up with. And Bush's Katrina How the hell can they compare the two? Who in the hell died in the ACA web site roll out? Give me a fucking break. I have never heard so much bull shit in my life.

All disasters coming together to form the ACA storm. Can't wait for the movie to hit the cinemas.

Yes, by next spring we'll be saying this was President Obama's Apollo 13!

Failure is not an option and the eventual success of Obamacare will be an issue Democrats will RUN on, not from, in the November 2014 elections!

each anniversary of ACA's website rollout. I think we all remember exactly where we were when it happened.

Our great grandchildren will be amazed to be related to someone who was actually alive to experience the horror.

Oh the humanity!!

When I see posts (not here) full of right-wing trolls calling for President Obama's resignation over all of this, I start seeing red after the past 8 years with the right cheering Bush/Cheney's negligence on 9/11 and poor decision-making skills and incompetence that led to more (needless) deaths in Iraq and Louisiana

Dr. Peter Venkman: This city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.
Mayor: What do you mean, "biblical"?
Dr Ray Stantz: What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath of God type stuff.
Dr. Peter Venkman: Exactly.
Dr Ray Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes...
Winston Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave!
Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

However because of the bumpy roll out I fully expect a new assault, and I fear this time we will lose the gains made.
