HHS Sec. Sebelius is looking extremely frustrated. Gonna be a long morning for her

Headline Quote from Sebelius on website problem: "Hold me accountable for the debacle. I'm responsible."
I was watching until WAXMAN came on and I had to leave! He makes me want to BARF!!!

Waxman, Pallone, Sebellius...I get it now. The Dems want to win this using personal charm and charisma.
The insurance companies have no choice since the policies don't comply with ACA rules.
I'm near profanity here...Aunt Ester is now using the Hildebeest Benghazi response formula: What difference does it make?? It isn't productive to fix any blame here, let's just move forward....
"No reliable date through the system is one of the problems we have>"
"The system is not functioning, which is why we are not getting the reliable data."
All bullshit. If they had any good numbers at all they would be presenting them. The only reason for delay is because they know damned well what those numbers are and they are deeply embarrassing to Obama himself.
This is a joke...she says the site never crashed...just a little slow....no one calls her on this or really anything else...even the Repubs[other than Blackburn] have asked any hardball questions...
Kelly O'Donnell @KellyO 2m
"The system isn't functioning..."Sebelius on why they can't say how many have enrolled
This is a bullsh*t hearing! Democrats are defending ACA, while the republicans recognize it as a hearing...so far.

Let me see if I understand this correctly. From what I just heard, not only was there no end-to-end testing done on the Security of the system, the ongoing "hot fixes" and "patches" being installed to improve functionality have not been tested either, and may in fact further compromise what little security the site ever had.
I know we have people here who are tech wizards, so please feel free to correct me on the above if I misunderstood it.....
And security of the system would take at least 2 months worth of active testing before it could be certified. And that's before you ever get to any of the other functionality problems of the system. Without a secure system there is absolutely no telling who will get their hands on all of your most personal data.
How long will it be until we hear of some hacker accessing IRS files via the Obamacare website?? Care to bet me someone isn't trying to do just that right now???

Dems talking points must have went out last night...all the Dems are saying basically the same thing....*Repubs want this to fail and this is faux outrage on their part*

It's a sad day in America when it's no longer embarrassing to have your mother paying for your health insurance at 33-years-old.
He's just a kid ya know!
Sorry mate - I don't take sucker bets :laugh:
There is exactly zero chance people aren't just getting in but also posting exploits and back doors on private message boards or IRC channels.
He said earlier that his son has his own business. Must be marketing from home...Mommy's home.
I have cautioned everyone within my circle to stay as far away from that site as humanly possible! It is a hacker's dream!
I bet he has a room in the basement...

UNBELIEVABLE! These Dems at Congressional hearing pretending that the ACA disaster is imaginary-all dreamed up by R's to undermine it.
John Podhoretz @jpodhoretz 1mCompare to "What difference... does it make?" and it becomes blatantly apparent the attitude of this administration.
"Is the president responsible?" Sibelius: "Whatever."

"As we fix things we'll know more about what is broken along the way" -#Sebelius, so they don't even know what's broken yet? Really?

Sebelius: I would gladly join the exchange if i did not have affordable work provided insurance
....and women needed a prostrate checkup.
I hope people are listening. Sebelius admitted people are forced to buy insurance they don't need. For instance, single men need maternity, and women needed a prostrate checkup.Does that mean at my age 55 I can still get free birth control pills..... :whistle:
ITS OVER, AND NOTHING NEW WAS LEARNED!Did you really think anything would be? I didn't.

Look - it is a committee hearing. Solemn and serious. STOP MAKING ME LAUGH!
Was reading a FB post from my local news outlet. 9 out of 10 people came on the discussion and blasted Obamacare--including several black posters. :laugh:
Marsha Blackburn and Mike Rogers did the best job today IMHO.
Agree! The others were so bland, and didn't add anything. Those hearings aren't hearings. Most were putting on a show for votes.
A caller into Hannity today pointed out how Obama always has women take the fall for him. Sibelius, Rice, Lerner etc.... I found that to be a interesting observation and I believe NOW would be screaming from the rafters had it been Bush/Republican. :nono:

yah...so much for the Republican War on Women, eh??
I would point out though, that the Hildebeest is already the presumed 2016 Dhimmie nominee...so I wonder how much will stick to her...
Nothing sticks to a Clinton no matter how bad it smells.
Or Obama. **nononono*
I was watching until WAXMAN came on and I had to leave! He makes me want to BARF!!!
Ok, just to clarify....was that with the sound on or off?
Doesn't matter!
I think Chris Matthews compared the wrong person to Freddie Kruger.
Can't get used to looking up his nostrils as he speaks! Makes me ill!

Everything about the ACA is a lie. It has nothing to do with healthcare, but control over the people. The biggest boondoggle in it is that anyone can register to vote. That is the sole reason they kept private information off the sign-ups.

The ACA has been in the making for 100 years, and there are hardcore progressives in Congress who will do anything required to force it into place.
