So says our friend Jeryl Bier at The Weekly Standard, and so does the apparent victim of the copyright infringement: Healthcare.gov, the federal government’s Obamacare website, has been under heavy criticism from friend and foe alike during its first two weeks of open enrollment. Repeated errors and delays have prevented many users from even establishing an account, and outside web designers have roundly panned the structure and coding of the site as amateurish and sloppy. The latest indication of the haphazard way in which Healthcare.gov was developed is the uncredited use of a copyrighted web script for a data function used by the site, a violation of the licensing agreement for the software.

The organization, United Labor Unions Council Local 100, is based in New Orleans and was created by Rathke after ACORN went bankrupt amidst widespread scandal. [link to michellemalkin.com] |

An outside consultant would have done it right the first time, or he'd be out of a job- and then testified that they paid him $500M for a job that he'd be lucky to get $100K from the private sector for...along with all the fraudulent calculations and privacy intrusive features he was ordered to implement. |

People really should not call it "Obamacare" as I am quite sure he did not write a single word in that phone book of a bill..... On the other hand, I also don't know who actually did create the bill, so I suppose we have to stick to the original term. Hmm. How about...TPTBcare? or...

Yes ^this: Like the combined efficiency of the post office and compassion of the IRS! And yet it's apparently impossible to get even a small minority of the American electorate interested enough to call their senators and representatives to let them know how they feel about this. The more we learn about ACA, the more obvious it is that congress and the White House have betrayed their constituents and should be tried for treason, convicted, and summarily executed.
