Need Obamacare? Dial 1-800-F**KYO !




 Yep! No joke! The national hot line number for Obamacare is: 1-800-F**CKYO. From the start it has been no secret that this social health care program would screw the public. Well, here you go! Adding to the promise of Obamacare being 'High Cost, Less Care' is the insult added when you dial the number. Read More: Obamacare Phone # No Joke.
  
We shouldn't be surprised at this coming from the same president that shut down the government because he refused to sit down with the opposition to work out a deal. The same president who just shut down, along with other monuments, the World War II Memorial to hundreds of vets who showed up their Monday to see the tribute to
WW II Vets Visit Memorial
them. These guys were met by barricades and security guards. Not a big deal for the vets who stormed the beaches of Normandy or bombed the Germans from bases in Italy and France. The men of World War II got to see their memorial, pushing past the barricades, the president's shut down be damned. To the security guards credit, they did not attempt to stop the vets from entering. (By the way...the seven security people the president had at the WWI Memorial was two more than he had in Benghazi.)

 
 There is some concern the closing this memorial was part of the 'dirty tricks' this administration pulled to make the shut down as painful and visible as possible to the public. Read More: GOP Questions Monument Closings

 Two things are certain right now....the shutdown continues and Obamacare continues, both  blights on the American landscape. Congressional approval rating is somewhere around 10  per cent, the president's at a lowly 42 per cent. Obamacare rolled out its so called exchanges on Monday to many problems and computer glitches. Obama excused this saying any new program is going to have issues at the beginning. The problem here is those in charge of getting this monstrosity up and running had three years to do it. There should have been no glitches. Despite this, government officials are claiming a huge success in people signing up but refused to give out numbers as to how many people. Once would surmise that if it was that successful they would be splashing that number everywhere.
As for the partial government shutdown. It's still out there, and despite Senator Harry Reid's senile ravings, Obama's 'getting really
old' blame game and their willing accomplices in the media to lay blame on the GOP, the onus is on Obama and Reid for this temporary stoppage in government. Obama's refusal to negotiate the impasse with the Republicans, brandishing a "My way or the highway" mentality, shows a lack of leadership and discipline.
 It's thought in some circles that perhaps Mr. Obama doesn't know how to negotiate these types of situations. The last shutdown 17 years ago saw President Clinton taking charge and sitting down with the House leadership to iron out a quick resolution. Clinton realized the consequences of a shutdown on the country. Obama either doesn't know or doesn't care. His unwillingness to participate in an end solution suggests the latter.
