Obamacare Mandate May Be Delayed
 

The Administration may not have given in to Republican demands, but they may have to give in to their own non-functional reality. Amateur hour continues unabated in DC.

You're just having a grand old time with this aren't you? :p

Wooo Hoo, six weeks? Really? That's all it takes to get your juices flowing?:rolleyes:

Of course the mandate will be extended until the website is functional. Both parties are trying to save face after the recent shutdown debacle. Obama is reluctant to give up any points to the team he completely humiliated, but he'll have to.

I wish the GOP were equally critical of gross mismanagement in defense procurement as they are with HHS's IT procurement. Both suck, but the former wastes orders of magnitude more money.

Pretty prescient, eh?

However, I gotta call BS on this excerpt:

Administration officials said the change is unrelated to the many problems thatthe marketplace’s Web site, HealthCare.gov, has had in its first three weeks. Instead, they said, the shift relates to what they called a “disconnect” among dates in new rules for buying coverage.

Maybe a six week delay...even so, it still isn't any death knell of the ACA as some hope. http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013...-deadline?lite=

It's not a death knell, but the delay won't be limited to six weeks, I promise you.

Seems like the attempts to "fix" the site are resulting in more issues. Lovely.

Sounds like you're ecstatic, Mike. Nice to see you and all your 'bagger buds cheering for the failure of insurance for the masses of people who rely on the emergency room for their healthcare. Real classy of you.:p

Pfft, Don't shoot! Let them burn. No delay unless its for at least a year.

hundreds of thousands, Millions, losing there health insurance and pushed into a system that don't work. :rolleyes:
