Yes, they do make errors, and the companies who put this together are the private sector, so you are wrong on many levels.

Not to mention this is a NO-BID situation.

The same guy that blasted the Bush administration for no-bid contracts is once again proven to be an utter phoney and complete hypocrit.

No, it did not, they did not launch it because they did not want crap to come out, they delayed it....

Weird.
Exactly right, I've never seen such about-faces.

and lets also point out that people who didnt decide to partake of Part D, were not punished by being fined.

If you dont buy Obamacare and you go without insurance, (even if it is the governments fault because the system is broken) you get hammered by the IRS.

When I tried Healthcare.gov it directed me to use the CA website. How's the CA exchange working for people?

how much it stinks that the government is forcing people to buy something they dont want to buy?
how Obamacare is causing millions of Americans to lose $$$ due to lost work hours as they drop below 29 hours a week?
how Obama care is preventing businesses from hiring additional workers?
How Obamacare is cousing premiums to go up drastically while causing coverage to go down drastically?

Or we could just talk about all kinds of non-obama care stuff like how Obama's team is forcing poor deaf people into homelessness in Arizona when there is specialized housing availble for them but Obamatrons have decreed they cannot live in the housing because it was made for deaf people?


Dude we have LOTs of stuff to complain about.

"Canadian provincial health officials last year fired the parent company of CGI Federal, the prime contractor for the problem-plagued Obamacare health exchange websites, the Washington Examiner has learned.

CGI Federal’s parent company, Montreal-based CGI Group, was officially terminated in September 2012 by an Ontario government health agency after the firm missed three years of deadlines and failed to deliver the province’s flagship online medical registry.

The online registry was supposed to be up and running by June 2011."

Now the prez says he will use the best and brightest to fix the website. Obviously the best and brightest did not qualify to set up the original database.

As with Solyndra, the red flags were ignored and truckloads of taxpayer money was wasted.

What the heck went on as the standards to set up user programs are well established and user testing is mandatory before a system can be validated. Guess the KS took Nancy at her word and bought it to find out what's in it. Not a good philosophy but an earmark of the current administration.

KS and a herd of her reports should be run out of town for incompetence and made to pay back the taxpayers form their slush funds.

should we complain about Obama giving 98 million dollars to a CANADIAN Company to build the Obamacare website.... A CANADIAN company that FAILED to create a viable government database for CANADA?


seriously you have a company with a history of failing to do what they have been contracted to do, and bammer gives them 98million dollars, then acts shocked when they live up to their reputation....
