Organizing For Action Not Above ObamaCare Website Fundraising

The troubled HealthCare.gov website is riddled with problems and hindering ObamaCare applicants. The Salesman-In-Chief, formerly known as President Obama, is not above pulling in cash for the dysfunctional site.

The president sent an email with an attached video message to his political group Organizing for Action, in which he stated, “the website has not worked as smoothly as it was supposed to, but we’re gonna get it fixed. The Affordable Care Act is much more than a website.”

The email did not give any explanations regarding the glitches, though, the salesman-in-chief campaigned for donations, stating “the other side will spend millions to maintain the status quo.”

Once you get past Obama’s desperate plea for support are then taken to a donation page that says: “The other side has already spent a whopping $400 million in anti-ObamaCare TV ads. We don’t have to beat that, but we need to have the resources to fight back.”

Organizing for Action has been scrambling together several events and social media pushes around ObamaCare’s implementations. They said that they are not adjusting their strategy in response to the website’s issues, they will continue their efforts despite the fact.

Obama held an ObamaCare meeting consisting of Obama’s adviser Valerie Jarrett, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, and sent Mike Hash who heads the health reform office at Health and Human Services to brief lawmakers on the law’s implementation.

Not at all surprising, only Democrats were invited to that session, inciting protests from House Speaker John Boehner, rightfully so being that the House Republican Party deserve to be briefed as well and not blantantly snubbed.

However, a Boehner spokesman said Wednesday that HHS has since agreed to provide House Republicans with a briefing on the site. “We are working out details,” the spokesman said.

Obama has turned to longtime adviser Jeffrey Zients to provide management advice to help fix the system. Zients, a former acting director of the Office of Management and Budget and a veteran management consultant, will be on a short-term assignment at HHS before he’s due to take over as director of Obama’s National Economic Council next year.

Meanwhile, Vice President Joe Biden and top White House officials held a call with business leaders Tuesday about the health law and other issues. Business Forward, a trade group friendly to the White House, said the administration asked the group to invite leaders to hear directly from Biden.
