The administration says a former Microsoft executive is taking over as the top tech honcho for HealthCare.gov, President Barack Obama's problem-plagued health insurance website.
Kurt DelBene will replace White House adviser Jeffrey Zients.
Zients, a management consultant, was sent in by Obama to overhaul the website after its disastrous launch in October.

Let's look at this in the real light.....
1. Spent 700 to 1,0000 million dollars on a web site which was to be up and running on Oct. 1st.
2. Fired the 1st person in charge, replacement tasked with getting the web site fixed by end of Nov.
3. Web site still not fixed by end of Nov. Fire the 2nd guy, bringing in 3rd person to fix web site.
4. And all the while have your sycophants tell the users of the 'web site' that it's wonderfully!
Anyone want some more kool aid?

“DelBene is married to freshman Rep. Suzan DelBene, a Washington state Democrat.”
That’s all I need to know about this guy.

They have less than two weeks.
Who wants to bet me that this collapses under it's own weight?

0bamacare was passed (like a bowel movement) in early 2010.
0bama has had more than 4.5 years to get his website running and make any needed “tweaks” to his signature law.
What the heck has he been doing?! No one takes 4.5 years to build a web site!
All that nonsense about golf and vacations...

In a yester-year I would have taken that bet. These days, they’ll just break the law and dump more money into it whilst moving the goal posts, citizens be damned.

Somehow I feel that the $700 to $1,000 million did not all go to ‘create the web site’. I think there was a lot of ‘other’ payments to support other chosen groups to further the cause.
