The Obama administration's ineptitude streak for selecting technology solutions (think Solyndra) continues. Healthcare.gov is ineffective and costly. Glitch ridden as it was, there were warnings that it was not-ready-for prime-time months ago.

Henry Chao, the deputy chief information officer and the deputy director of the Office of Information Services (OIS) in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), expressed ..."

Answer to the question in the headline: of course.

It looks to be about three pages. That’s a lot to post and people might not read it.

It is by no means representative of Obamacare. The website is something that can eventually be made to work.

Is it somehow more readable at the blog?

No. Homeboy just wants hits, and free advertising here at Free Republic.

He's a pimp.

So, let me see if I understand you.

Three pages of text is too long to post on FR because people here don't have long enough attention spans to read that much?

Then somehow, if they go to a site where the hit counters are at work, and read the same story broken into three separate clicks (for ad revenue generation) suddenly their time and attention is no problem?

I think I've got it now!

Free advertising on FreeRepublic = substantive transformation of the reading audience. Makes perfect sense now.

Neither the website nor the law were meant to work. They were meant to create demand for a single payer system—which Obama and Reid and Pelosi will pitch as the only sensible solution.

SOCIALIZED MEDIINE IS THE ENDGAME. Everything else is a distraction.

Yes, here I am trying to divert traffic to my blog via free advertising.
Oh, wait.. that's you. Never mind.

No other handouts or free stuff for you to wait for today?

Because your big flashing gay rainbow avatar makes the page load too slow.

And your little dog, too!
