Obama: Frustrations Over ObamaCare Are Related to GOP’s Government Shutdown

OBAMA: "There is no doubt that people are frustrated. We just came out of a shutdown and the possibility for the first time in 200 years we wouldn't pay our bills. People breathe a sigh of relief when that finally got done. And the next thing they know is that the president's health care reform can't get the website to work. And that there are these other problems with respect to cancellation notices. You know, I understand why folks are frustrated. I would be, too. sometimes people look at what's taking place in Washington, and they say not enough is getting done that helps me with my life. You know, regardless of what congress does, ultimately I'm the president of the United States and they expect me to do something about it. So in terms of how I intend to approach it, I'm just going to keep on working as hard as I can around the priorities that the American people care about. And I think it's legitimate for them to expect me to have to win back some credibility on this health care law in particular, and a whole range of these issues in general."
