Ron sent me this story.

The technological failures of Healthcare.gov highlight the lack of technological expertise in the federal government. All the best programmers go to Apple, Google or Facebook.

Or porn.

Porn sites can’t make money if their sites crash like healthcare.gov.

“My name is Corey Price, Vice President of adult entertainment website Pornhub.com,” began a recent open letter to the White House. “On behalf of our company, I’d like to extend an offer to the Obama administration to help fix the U.S. health insurance exchange website.”

And you thought the Affordable Care Act rollout was already obscene.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

But wait a minute. As Price points out, his website gets a lot of traffic. Like, tons. Legions of people are impatient to log on: “Pornhub.com believes its staff of talented engineers can help prepare the Obama administration to accommodate millions of concurrent users to avoid future ‘tech surges.'”

Naturally, Pornhub’s offer was rebuffed as the PR stunt it undoubtedly is.

But their software engineers are a lot better than the booger eatin’ moh-rons working on the gummint’s Obummercare website. They could have prolly created sumpin’ in half the time for half the money and it would have worked twice as well as what we’ve got. They could certainly teach the gummint about capacity and bandwidth issues. Streaming video eats up a lot of bandwidth and with a lot of users watching that needs a lot of capacity. Not that I have any experience with porn sites on the internet. Nudge. Nudge. Wink. Wink. Say no more.

“I think that would be pretty inappropriate and something we would not be interested in doing,” Julie Bataille of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services told reporters, apparently with a straight face.

Kind of a shame. Think about it. The porn industry knows technology.

That it does!

It figured out home video before anyone else, playing a pivotal role in the VHS v. Betamax debate. Adult filmmakers pioneered the first successful business model on the Internet, and porn has been at the forefront of every new wave of technology — streaming, mobile, interactive. It’s like the NASA of digital distribution, always pushing the envelope.

In fact, porn does technology better than it does porn.

The internet as we know it was not very old when the porn industry embraced it and led the way in making money on the internet.

Before we completely dismiss this offer, let’s look at it from Pornhub’s perspective.

Which group of American workers needs to stay on top of its collective well-being — often, it bears mentioning, with no access to affordable health care — more than adult film stars? Who needs that automatic birth control coverage that comes standard with Obamacare? These are Americans, and they have skin in the game. So to speak.

If the government is not going to let the porn industry fix the Healthcare.gov website, at least put its performers in charge of taking the Obamacare phone calls. They have a lot of experience there, too, and their customer service is excellent.

Or so I’m told.

Well, Obummercare is a lot like porn. Unfortunately, with Obummercare it’s the customers who are getting screwed.

Ron sent me this little blurb on Flipper’s and Obungler’s “success” in Iran or as he labels it Barry & Kerry negotiate, and here’s the result:

Iran gets:

$3 Billion in sanction held cash released
$9.6 Billion in sanction held gold released
$5+ Billion in future sanction-held petrochemical sales
Keep enriched uranium for 1 bomb
3,000 new centrifuges
Keep 1 plutonium reactor

We get:

Zero Iranian cetrifuges dismantled
Zero uranium removed from Iran
Zero nuclear facilities closed
No end to missile testing
No reduction in support or terrorists or terrorism
No stop to human rights abuse
No hostages released

And this is a good deal . . . . . how?

It’s the North Korea model all over again.

Ya gotta understand that the base of the Dimocrat Party, especially Obumbler and his close advisers, hates America. Look at how Flipper came home from Viet Nam and trashed our military. He even threw his medals over the White House fence, or so he claimed. Then, all of a sudden, he became a “war hero”, at least in his own mind. He proudly displayed his medals in his Senate office. He got three purple hearts, two of them dubious, to get out of serving his full year in Viet Nam. He now refuses to disclose his military records which he promised to do when he was running for president. What is he hiding?

The base of the Dimocrat Party also hates Israel, and it wouldn’t bother them a bit if Iran wiped Israel off the map. The black base hates Jews and is rabidly anti-Semitic. For the life of me, I cannot comprehend how Jews could support a party that welcomes anti-Semites. It’s like how could blacks support a party that is racist? Wait a minute! They do. Dimocrat social programs have broken up the black family, increased black poverty, supported failing inner city schools, and has blacks dependent on the gummint for food, housing, and their very existence. If the KKK had come up with a plan to destroy blacks and keep them in poverty, they couldn’t have done a better job than today’s Dimocrat Party. But, after all, the KKK was the terrorist arm of the Dimocrat Party so what Dimocrats have done to blacks is perfectly reasonable. What’s really great is that just like Jews vote for the party that hates Israel, blacks vote for the party that has kept them down. Are Dimocrat leaders smart or what to get these people voting for them?

“And it you like your testicles, you can keep your testicles. Period!”

Yannow, I always thought that the Clintons were amazing. I mean, they are the smartest people in the world, but when it came to testifying under oath, they couldn’t remember a thing. The BJ and the Thunder Rodent Thigh dolls. You pull the string and they say, “I don’t recall.”

Now, we have a president, the most powerful man in the world, and it turns out that he is a Sgt. Schultz. “I know nothing! Nothing!” How can this guy lead this country if he doesn’t know anything? He gets his information from the New York Times and the Washington Post. Why do we have a National Security Adviser? Obungler doesn’t listen to him.

Amazing! Too bad that we don’t have a national media to hold this guy accountable for anything.

More Obummercare news. Thanks to Michael for the link to the story.

It could take a year to secure the risk of “high exposures” of personal information on the federal Obamacare online exchange, a cybersecurity expert told CNBC on Monday.

A year! A year? WTF? A year?

“When you develop a website,

Not just a website, but any operating system, which is the back end to the website. It’s where the actual stuff gets done.

you develop it with security in mind. And it doesn’t appear to have happened this time,” said David Kennedy, a so-called “white hat” hacker who tests online security by breaching websites. He testified on Capitol Hill about the flaws of HealthCare.gov last week.

Security? We don’t need no steenkin’ security! I could go into a long rant here about how when I was a systems programmer with IBM, I would have a security program in the installation and I would transfer all of the security definitions from my old system to the new system before even bringing it up for testing. I mean, this is just second nature. How could these bozos (with an apology to Bozo the clown here) overlook sumpin’ that basic?

“It’s really hard to go back and fix the security around it because security wasn’t built into it,” said Kennedy, chief executive of TrustedSec. “We’re talking multiple months to over a year to at least address some of the critical-to-high exposures on the website itself.”

How basic is that? On a project this critical, security should have been one of the first considerations. People are gonna have to input their SSN’s and their Medicare numbers in this system. The SSN, along with the Medicare number, is Sacred Data. Hello identity thieves. On top of that, the system will store private medical information. It ain’t gonna be very private is it?

According to the Department of Health and Human Services, which oversaw the implementation of the website, the components used to build the site are compliant with standards set by Federal security authorities.

Obviously, those standards ain’t very high.

“The privacy and security of consumers’ personal information are a top priority for us. Security testing happens on an ongoing basis using industry best practices to appropriately safeguard consumers’ personal information,” said the spokesperson.

Yadda. Yadda. Yadda. Blah. Blah. Blah. Bullshit! Bullshit! Bullshit! Here’s an idea. Let’s store Obungler’s stuff on healthcare.gov. Yannow, stuff like his school transcripts, birth certificate (the one he released was phony), financial info from Occidental (Did he get financial assistance as a foreign student?), and other stuff he’s hiding. Howza ’bout Flipper’s service record that he promised to release? Let’s store that on healthcare.gov. They’d fix the security flaws yesterday.

Another online security expert—who spoke at last week’s House hearing and then on CNBC—said the federal Obamacare website needs to be shut down and rebuilt from scratch. Morgan Wright, CEO of Crowd Sourced Investigations said: “There’s not a plan to fix this that meets the sniff test of being reasonable.”

And while we’re at it, let’s rewrite Obummercare from scratch like legislation is supposed to be done. That includes hearings and input from the other party. Instead, Oblunder and the Dimocrats wanted a law so badly that they used legislative tricks to ram this bill, a bill the American public didn’t want, down the throats of the American people. Now, we have people losing their insurance and being forced to buy more expensive policies that they don’t want, don’t need, and cannot afford. If it just happened to Oboner supporters it wouldn’t bother me, but unfortunately, the rest of the country has to suffer from this crap.

Obumbler and the Dimocrata gave us a “fix” for a nonexistent problem that has increased the cost of health insurance, will increase the deficit, will lead to massive identity theft, and will make healthcare worse.

This whole IT project has been amateur hour on display from start to finish. Almost four years and we get this dreck? You really have to work hard to screw up this badly. And with this colossal clusterfuck on display, no one has been fired yet? Sebelius still has her job? At least Bush Fired “Brownie” after Katrina.

This is gonna be worse than Katrina with people losing their health insurance, people having to pay more for health insurance, death panels (Sarah Palin was right), the Medicaid expansion which will increase deficits, the identity thefts, and who knows what else coming down the pike since no one bothered to read the bill. “We have to pass the bill to find out what’s in it”, said exSpeaker Blinky. That has got to be one of the dumbest things any politician has ever said about any legislation. And Sarah Palin is the dumb one? If a Republican had said that, he/she would have been laughed at and mocked for weeks, but since it was a Dimocrat, the LSM, which is the propaganda arm of the Dimocrat Party, passed on the ridicule and mocking that should have occurred. The medical equipment tax has cost jobs as has the insurance mandate upon business which has seen full time jobs become part time jobs and part time workers laid off.

How’s that hopey changey stuff workin’ out for ya?

Elections have consequences. Remember that next November.

And while we’re at it. Abraham Lincoln was a Republican. Pope Albert I of the Church of AGW lied when he said his father voted for the Civil Rights Act when he was in the Senate. He voted against it. Dimocrats filibustered the Civil Right’s Act. It wasn’t until LBJ’s Great Fucking Society that Dimocrats started courting blacks. Welfare has done more harm to blacks than good. It broke up the black family. It has kept blacks mired in poverty and dependent upon the gummint for food and shelter. It has kept them uneducated by sending them to crappy schools. LBJ was right when he said welfare would “keep niggers voting Dimocrat for generations”.

76-year-old woman killed in attempted robbery.

“She fought. She was a fighter. She shot him,” the victim’s brother, Ronnie Lollis, told local news.

Dorothy Hendrix returned home at about 1am when two armed men and one woman approached her attempting to rob her, coroner Greg Shore said.

Hendrix pulled out a gun and fired at the suspects, and one of them returned fire, hitting her twice. One neighbour reported the gunshots to police.

Hendrix, known as “Dot” to friends and family, managed to shoot one of the intruders in the stomach before she died at the scene. The other two suspects ran off.

The wounded suspect was taken to the hospital for surgery, Shore said. The Anderson County Sheriff’s Office said they will release more details after they interview him.

Alas, she didn’t kill the thug. Hmmmm! What’s missing here?

Deputies said they are investigating whether a vehicle found near Airline Road and Rayben Lane with a broken windshield may have been involved.

“She helped anybody, you didn’t have to ask for it she helped anybody that needed help,” Lollis told NBC 14 News.

Lollis said this wasn’t the first time Hendrix was attacked. In October 2011, deputies said Hendrix was at the same home when she became the victim of an armed robbery, a case which has not yet been solved.

According to Lollis, Hendrix bought a gun and learned to fire it for protection after the first attack.

She shot the thug in the stomach, so it was a good center mass shot. Unfortunately, it didn’t kill him. Still no mention of race.

“She had been robbed right here at her house, coming out of her house. That’s what made her get her gun. I don’t understand why she wanted to keep coming back. I know home’s home,” Lollis told reporters.

Steven Hagood, 33, who was shot during the incident, was facing an arrest warrant in connection with murder and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, the sheriff’s office said.

Tereba Geer, 26, and Bradacious Galloway, 23, were also arrested.

In the entire story, there is no mention of race, altho’ names like Tereba and Bradacious kinda sound like two of the perps were black. Remember, Name That Race has now replaced Name That Party, with the LSM, in a full court press, trying to downplay the Knockout Game and other black on white violence ’cause it doesn’t fit the narrative that only whites are racists and whites commit more racist attacks on blacks than blacks commit on whites. So whom are ya gonna believe, the LSM or your own lying eyes?

Just for the record, Gateway Pundit has pictures of two of the feral blacks involved in this crime.

As I was reading the Atlanta Urinal and Constipation, on Saturday, I came across this story.

Sometimes the grass is blue on the other side of the fence.

Unfortunately, the rest of the story is for the premium subscribers to the AJC website so it’s behind their pay wall. As a subscriber, I could logon and cut and paste, but the story is total bullshit anyway. Here’s why.

60,000 Kentuckians have signed up for health coverage through the state created exchange. Kentucky is one of the states that created its own website so it’s working better than the federal website.

But let’s look a little closer at those numbers. 12000 people enrolled in individual insurance plans. 48000 enrolled in Medicaid. That means 48000 leeches and parasites enrolled in plans that they won’t pay for. The federal gummint pays for them for two years with money that will have to be borrowed or printed. Only in a liberal mind is that considered a success.

For the Dimocrats it is a success story because they want people dependent upon gummint. They love poor people. That’s why they have created so many of them. Look at what they did to blacks. LBJ’s Great Fucking Society couldn’t do what Jim Crow laws did. It broke up the black family. Almost 3/4 of all black children are illegitimate. Their fathers are merely sperm donors. Meanwhile Nyquilia and Tylonalia keep downloading future baby mamas and future thugs by multiple sperm donors. The schools in the inner city suck and even if they didn’t, there is an anti-achievement culture in the black community that doing well in school and learning how to read and write proper English is “acting white”. If Jesse Hymietown Jackson and Al Tawana Brawley Crown Heights Riots Freddie’s Fashion Mart Arson Sharpton really cared about helping blacks to succeed this is what they would be addressing, but there’s no money or power in that. It’s better to keep blacks riled up and blame everything on whitey. That’s a lot easier than preaching personal responsibility.

But I digress.

For Obummercare to work, you need young healthy people to enroll, yannow the people who don’t really want to buy insurance but will be forced by the gummint to do so or the gummint will sic the IRA, the most feared and outlaw of the gummint agencies on them. Don’t buy insurance? The IRA has the power to garnish your wages or put a lien on your property. Remember, the IRA has no due process. You are guilty until proven innocent. And just look how Obungler has sicced the IRA on political opponents. Back when Nixon was president, that was grounds for impeachment, but that’s only when a Republican is president. For Dimocrat presidents it’s just fine and dandy. Ask a lot of Clinton opponents who were audited by the IRS about that.

This Medicaid expansion is an idea by Dimocrats to get states hooked, like a crack addict, on the Medicaid expansion money from the feds. It’s only good for two years. Then they’re gonna drop it to 90%. I wonder how long that will last? Republicans could take over the Senate in 2014, altho’ I’m not gonna hold my breath. I don’t call them the Stupid Party for nothing. There are 10 red state elections for seats currently held by Dimocrats. I’m predicting that the Republicans will find some way to lose five of them. Even so, in spite of their propensity to lose winnable elections (see Todd Akin in Missouri) there is a chance they could take over the Senate.

And what happens if the Republicans manage to win a presidential election, the Senate, and the House in 2016. The Dimocrats just arranged for them to rip Obummercare out by the roots in 2016 since they just abolished the filibuster. It could happen. But it won’t.

Whatever happens, the states that bought into the Medicaid expansion scam are gonna be on the hook for a lot of money. Thank you Governor Deal for not buying that bullshit.

Anyway, to the liberals progressives rat bastard commies, overloading Medicaid is a success story. What the heck. They can always borrow or print more money.

This one is from Richard.

An elderly woman was walking home from the supermarket. Her bag of groceries was especially heavy that day. When she saw Nathan Hale’s Used Cars, she decided to stop and look at cars. As it happened, the owner himself approached her. He asked her what kind of car she wanted.

“Well,” she said, “I can’t remember the name exactly, but it has something to do with hate or anger.” The owner was quick to reply, “Oh yes, you want a Plymouth Fury! We have a few. What color would you like?”

The woman reached into her shopping bag and pulled out an ear of corn. She striped down the shucks and said, “I want this color.” Nathan replied, “Ma’am I’m sorry, but we don’t have any in that color. How about a nice blue one?” “No son,” she said, “I want this color.”

“But ma’am, they didn’t make that color! Maybe a cherry red one?” By this time, the old woman was mad and started throwing things at the owner. Another salesmen noticed the disruption and asked the secretary what was going on. The secretary replied, (more…)

One of the things that I really like about Def Leoppard is that when their drummer lost an arm, they didn’t find a replacement for him. They waited until he figgered out how to play drums with a missing arm and kept him in the band. Classy!
