Take Your Medicine
Take two aspirin and hold a press conference in the morning. President Obama announced a health care law fix to allow insurers to continue plans that previously would have had to be canceled. Here are a few highlights from the press conference to give you an idea how things are going. “We did fumble the ball.” … “We should have done a better job of getting this right on day one.” … “Those who got cancellation notices do deserve better and they received an apology from me. But they deserve more than words.” … “I was not informed directly that the website would not be working the way it was supposed to. I get accused of a lot of things but I don’t think I am stupid enough to go around saying this is going to be like shopping on Amazon or Travelocity a week before the website opens if I thought that it wasn’t going to work.” At this point, most Americans would settle for Webvan.
