The right was not happy with the questions at President Obama's press conference Tuesday afternoon, and they took to Twitter to vent their frustration. Their complaint? Too many questions about the government shutdown — and not nearly enough about Obamacare's rollout glitches! Here, then, are just a few of the whiniest examples.
I wish someone would ask Obama "By what date (other than the deadline you already missed) will the exchanges work?..." 1/2

...and if you miss that deadline will you admit your administration blew it?"

It seems no one in the White House press corps has any questions for the president about the health insurance exchange web sites.

If the president doesn't have to answer an ACA question today we can basically just manage with TMZ and The Onion.

Get Jon Stewart a WH press pass. Liberal though he is, he’d ask far tougher questions

Heckuva job, WH press corps

Seriously, he got not a single question on ObamaCare rollout? I didn’t miss it?

#defundtheWHpresscorps RT @rorycooper You know who asked some tough questions about Obamacare? Comedy Central.

Questions from WH press corps are pathetic. As of this moment, not a single tough or challenging inquiry.

But we'll let Dave Weigel have the final word.
Hey, maybe the press would have asked some Obamacare glitch questions if there wasn't a giant fucking shutdown happening.

Maybe, Dave. Maybe.
