Who Ya Gonna Call?

If there's something strange on your website, who ya gonna call?  The answer, for president Obama at least, is not Ghostbusters.  Nope, the repair of the Obamacare exchange website has now been set up so that one of the many site contractors will now be in charge.  And who did Obama call?  The answer is a subsidiary of United Healthcare, the insurance giant.

Does it matter who was chosen?  After all, for three plus years, the geniuses in Washington thought that they themselves could coordinate all the pieces of the puzzle, so they did not bother with a general contractor.  Clearly, that was just a moronic conceit on their part.  So it's a good thing that they brought in a company with actual knowledge on the subject to run the repair enterprise.  But again, who did they call?  They chose the company that was responsible for the piece of the exchange website that provided the mechanism for signing up for an account.  That's right!  Obama and his people chose the company that designed a part of the site that has failed again and again since the site went live.  The truth is that the work done by United Healthcare's subsidiary was so flawed that no one yet knows for sure all the other problems on the site since folks cannot get past the unworkable signup process.

This is a truly stupid move.  What's next?  Will Obama bring in al Qaeda to fix flaws in security at American bases around the world?

Dear Jeff
Recently FOX moved Hannity to the last spot of the news day 10:00P.M.
Hannity has been so repetitious He has lost many of his viewers.
Just a note: Watch out for becoming so far right that you may start to appear to be wrong.
Perception, your blog is read by many, however, not many from the middle or left of middle are being influenced. CHANGE only comes from winning people from the other side.
Charles Krauthammer switched from the left to right do to empiracle evidence. Caution, pertinence is the GOAL.
Thanks always
