Sebelius says Obamacare website improvements 'on track'

(CNN) - Health Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Tuesday that "we are definitely on track to have a significantly different user experience by the end of this month" with the problem-plagued Obamacare website.

In a conference call with state and local officials, Sebelius added that "this isn't a magic 'turn on the on switch'" to fix HealthCare.gov and that "the experience is vastly improved each day."

    She is right on track to double Medicare Advantage premiums, deductibles and co pays as part of the theft of hard working, tax paying Americans hard earned money to the welfare frauds and dope addict that male up the base supporters of the conniving community organizer. Iran can keep its nukes and get paid billions , but Americans cannot keep their healthcare, doctors , hospitals or their money.

    Right wingnuts are really impatient. It's not like a 30 day war with Iraq, where you can count on republicans to really be patient. Republicans get to keep their junk policies, they should be ecstatic. So can we start talking about the next republican shutdown of government?

    Boehner came out pretty well with his ACA sign up photo op. He seems to have avoided all the negative crap the right wingnut gloom and doom brigade have been yelling about.

    Boy, do you need to change where you get your info from. We have a Medicare Advantage plan and none of what you say is happening, is happening. Premium went up a couple of dollars and that is after it dropped a significant amt. last year. Deductibles and co-pays are the same as last year. Jeez fellow, know of what you speak before you speak.

    Most republicans are reporting $5000 a month premiums, $50,000 deductibles, and loss of their doctors, or some other craziness. Boehner had none of those problems, and he makes over $200,000. I guess that is the advantage of not signing up in a red state.

    Bessy – Most people know that StuffIt is reality challenged.

    Three years and $200 million...what executive would survive if vested with the responsibility of creating a website with that kind of budget, and didn't even check up on it periodically? I give you President Obama. The government is not the one manage healthcare...they simply do not have the resume for the job. Every program they have touched is now bankrupt and we are $17 trillion in debt. You have to be goose stepping along the Democratic party line to be defending this group.

    More than 70% of the money spent on Medicare is spent on white seniors, living in nursing homes ... people who would typcially have voted for Romney because he is a Republican. ... and they did!

    Thanks – I am having good experience with my insurance as well. More good people need speak out. I have seen a Death Panel yet either.

    Why is SHE still employed? She is completely incompetent, as is her boss.

    I have a Medicare Advantage Plan, and mine has not gone up. Same as this year's. I have the same doctor. Actually my doctor insists I keep him, AND my Medicare Advantage Plan. He likes the plan. You tea tards need to stop watching Rushbo and Hannity for your information, if that's what you call it.

    I have used the sight for four days straight and can not get past it saying the sight is down every time I start to submit the application. Very frustrating and a waste of my time.

    Question: When do republicants reach a point where they are happy and have nothing to cry or whine about?

    Answer: It is a trick question. These are states the average republicant cannot reach and so it is really pointless in trying. Kinda likie petting a full grown adult male alligator in the wild; you may think you are successful, but repeated attempts will most likely result in something very bad happening.
    This is why I don't even try... (and neither should you, nor Sebelius, nor President Obamam, nor anyone...)

    Ditto Bessy. TP propaganda about Medicare Advantage is just that - empty, false, propaganda.

    Or we can do something responsible like announce "Mission Accomplished" on an aircraft carrier about a war that didn't end.... That went over well right???
