The Patriot Post® · O'care: 476,000 Apps?

Mark Twain famously wrote, “There are lies, damned lies and statistics.” And The DemoCare propagandists are driving that point home. After refusing to release any data on signups, the administration now claims 476,000 applications. The AP’s Julia Pace writes, “You have to fill out an application first when you get on to this website before you can actually enroll. … This number doesn’t tell us how many people are going to enroll.” As for actual enrollees, Obama spokesman Jay Carney insists, “We’ve said repeatedly that we will release enrollment figures monthly. So I would expect the first figures to come out in mid-November.” Of course, “monthly” would mean November 1, not mid-November. The number of actual enrollees can be determined by an administrator with a few keystrokes. So what is the delay?
