Assholes in asshole land conspire to crash healthcare.gov


Crash HealthCare.gov
https://www.healthcare.gov ^

Posted on Tuesday, October 01, 2013 10:24:29 AM by MelSmith

Everyone go to https://www.healthcare.gov and begin the signup process. It may be "free" (being paid for by future generations thanks to the debt) but it doesn't have to be easy.

We should learn from the leftists how to collapse the system. There is no doubt that the Obamacare IT system is almost as flawed as Obamacare itself.

Click on "Apply Now" and pick your state (or any state).

And we wonder why their elected Reps are behaving like children.

adding: and they're not the only ones. From the above link:

Lol! This is rather tame, their is a group on thehill.com bragging about flooding the exchanges with bogus applications and signing up Obama, Reid and Pelosi up for every states exchange.

I just went and signed up Obama on a healthcare exchange, he should be getting his enrollment packet in the mail soon

LOL, I think I will do the same to Harry Reid too.

Lol! Flooding an already strained system with bogus applications, I didn't think of that! I think I'll go make sure Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi get the Obamacare coverage they so richly deserve....

Wow, a tactic used by ACORN and other "Community Organizing" groups. Overwhelm the system! It could stop ObamaCare in its tracks...


"their" is a group. Gawd they're dumb.

The GOP is absolutely rudderless.

And PS... if they are setting up fake accounts, is that not fraud?
And don't they know that their IP is tracked. Oh shhhh, nevermind.
These clowns really aren't too smart.

What do they think they're going to accomplish?

It's been on "We have a lot of visitors on our site right now and we're working to make your experience here better. Please wait here until we send you to the login page. Thanks for your patience!" and then sending you to an error page after a while since at least 5 AM this morning.

And no, it's not all load. There were originally actual error messages that were displayed that were obviously code issues. They've since replaced them with 'friendlier' messages pointing to volumes...I know, I received them this morning trying to create an account. Which I couldn't do due to a glitch in their security question dropdown.

I'm IT. I know shit happens with major rollouts. But this seems pretty damn basic. And given the PR stakes, pretty damn stupid.

I know you freepers very well. Once you see the lower rates, all your political ideology will go right out the window.

You all whine and cry about Social Security, but you're right there in line when it comes time to draw it.

You are all hypocrites.

They will never be able to crash any website let alone a government website. Well maybe they could crash their favorite gay porn site if they all went there are the same time but thats about it. I really hope they actually tried to sign Obama or Reid up because then they can be arrested for fraud and identity theft.
