"Smoothing out the process"
-President Obama
That means that the administration is now granting another delay or extension in the "Affordable Health Care Act"-whatever you want to call it so that the floor beneath it won't collapse just before the 2014 mid-term elections-and millions more will be outraged enough to vote against every Democrat in sight. So if you like your health care plan (even if it has gone away) you can keep it until 2016 after a couple more elections (heh heh).
Watch the lame explanations given by Obama, Jay Carney and Hillary Clinton in the below Fox News report.

That's right, Hillary. The administration just hasn't done a good job of explaining what a great plan this is. And Hitler just didn't do a good enough job of explaining why he invaded the Soviet Union.
So they claim they now have 4 million enrollees though they can't tell us whether or now those people had health coverage before, who these people are, how old they are or even whether they are even still alive. That still leaves them -in the best scenario- three million short of the numbers they need to make the system viable.
But all this is the least of the problems. These are the boobs we are turning our health care over to.

Its a great plan. Millions of the previously uninsured are now insured. As they say in Kentucky, which got a well-run and well-tested state exchange together "This is great, much better than that Obamacare I've been hearing about."
Administrative postponements in the specific requirements of statutes are a standard practice. The Clean Air and Clean Water acts are built discharge permits that allow some limited quantity of pollution, after the statute began by formall outlawing all pollution, period.
What this extension does is allow time for the free market to work out the substantial minority of people who want to keep pre-existing noncompliant health insurance policies. The free market will work it out because every year there is a fair amount of turnover in policies, and that will phase out the noncompliant policies. When people would have changed their insurance anyway, they will get something that complies with the law.
All hail the free market.
