Breitbart News ^ | November 19, 2013 | Breitbart News

“Let me get this correct,” Gardner asked incredulously, “60 to 70 percent of healthcare.gov still needs to be built?” Chao answered, “Healthcare.gov, the online application, verification, determination, plan compare, getting enrolled…that’s 100 percent there.” But he admitted, “There is the back office systems, the accounting systems, the payment systems, they still need to be built.”

Repeal this communist POS!!

If it were ONLY communist. This is such a Fusterclick, of BIBLICAL proportions, that this may very well bring America down completely.

Jim, you know this is what I do for a living. This is unquestionably the very worst project I have EVER seen *IN MY LIFE*.

The O’Communist website reminds me of a Hollywood back lot creation of an Old West town. All the buildings on Main Street are just flat facades with nothing behind them.

Has anyone asked Claire Wolfe lately if we are beyond the awkward stage?

“This bunch of crooks doen’t even pretend. They’re just lining friends’ pockets and laughing at us.”

Interesting, very interesting!

The sycophants have been tesitfying over and over that the thing can be “fixed” — while they knew it could not be, and that huge sections of the system were not even coded, much less ready.

Impeach all the people who testified before Congress, and let it be believed, that they thing could and would be fixed, when they of course, knew otherwise.

Impeach, charge purgery.

AMAZING they were able to testify to this train-wreck of a fraud, with a straight face! Only TODAY after weeks of testimony, does anyone HINT at the truth of the debacle.

That is merely proof that some of the rats know they had better jump ship, and NOW. BUT were they as smart as they think they are, they would have testified HONESTLY and jumped a lot sooner. But who knows what was held over their heads? Certainly not merely a job, because these supposed geniuses could find employment. What else?

But the testimony this week is far closer to a truth (though still not truth enough) that can be believed. There is a real incentive to distance oneself from the disaster, despite the control and threats from the above. Me thinks.

It’s an unpainted spaghetti western town facade being held upright by 2x4s with a single nail at each joint when what is required is something comparable to the Obama White House all decked out and prepared for an Islamic banquet for 200 dinner guests, including Saudi royalty.

An impeachable offense at this point. We are so being lied to.

“What exactly were they doing before they got the requisite specifications to start on the website, that made them spend over half a billion dollars? “

That’s a question that needs answering. I suspect that there was a lot of wheel-spinning, and do-overs. Even a seemingly “small” change in specs could have a large effect on time and costs. The Obama administration is happy to pin the blame on the contractors — yet, they are also continuing to fund them to do the fixes. That makes me suspect that most of the fault lies with the client (Executive Branch), and not the contractors.

It’s worth a view, as one of the earliest episodes without the writer’s homo agenda.

Anyways, a shyster comes to the town to sell them something they don’t need with fancy marketing and charisma, they buy it, go into hock, and it’s like... well... to use another analogy, its the structure and guts of the buildings behind a spaghetti western town movie set.

To put any of it - ever - on line without having the state-of-the-art in web-based security is criminally irresponsible.

Well... we do have some of the best irresponsible criminals in the world working in our government.

Laz....so this website has to be considered a “trusted” query source by all of the internal government and insurance sites that it touches, right? Lots of write privileges too, not just read...but not all write. If so, doesn’t that mean that it likely is opening up access to files in other systems once there is an ID created in the healthcare website?

Doubtful. There would be access to files FROM other systems, files that exist 'locally', but not files IN other systems.

a very apt analogy and one that could easily lend itself to a visual representation

Scene One...even has prince barry on the edge of his seat

And just think...if I made ONE omission in listing the condition of an item on ebay, or try to post a less-than-crisp picture, or charge too much for shipping, or misrepresent the item in ANY WAY, or am a little slow in shipping the item, or if the buyer just doesn’t think I communicate very well, I can lose my top-Rated Seller Status in a heartbeat, PayPal can put a hold on my funds, and that “black mark” can stay on my page for 12 MONTHS!

Ebay claims they have upgraded their policy for sellers, but I have no trust or confidence in eBay anymore.

Yet the Gub’mint can get away with THIS!

“without payment systems how can the doctors and hospitals be paid?”

Many doctors, clinics, groups and other health providers, apparently have been told, it will take at least 90 days in 2014 to be paid for patient treatments in 2014.
