(National Review) Ooops…The information technology (payment) systems of ObamaCare are still anywhere from 60 to 70% unfinished according to Henry Chao, Deputy Chief Information Officer at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, who testified at a Congressional Hearing today.

After spending wasting some $634 Million over the past 3.5 years on an unfinished website the Obama Administration rolled out ObamaCare with great fan fare on the 01 October with 60 to 70% of Healthcare.gov not even built yet.

How inept must one be before they are terminated by the Obama Administration?

Charles Krauthammer: Obama’s Apology for Canceled Insurance Plans “Simply Appalling”

Obama Not a Big Man

(FOX News) Charles Krauthammer told viewers Thursday on FOX News ‘Special Report with Bret Baier’ that President Obama was “crystal clear” about individual health insurance under ObamaCare.

“He (President Obama) said, if you have your plan and like your plan you will keep your plan period,” Dr Charles Krauthammer a syndicated Washington Post columnist and FOX News contributor said. “The punctuation is the key here. No context, no caveats, no exceptions, that’s what the word period means. He couldn’t have been clearer and for him to pretend he wasn’t is simply appalling.”

In an interview on Thursday with NBC News President Obama told Americans who have had their health care plans canceled by insurers that he was sorry they  “are finding themselves in this situation based upon assurances they got from me,” and the Obama Administration officials “weren’t as clear as we needed to be.”

New Jersey Gov Christ Christie had advice for President Obama, Krauthammer said. “He said in an interview, I think it was last week, why don’t you just say, ‘we made a mistake and we’re sorry, we’re going to try to fix it. I think that would go a long way but I don’t think a president, this president is capable of ever saying that.”

Krauthammer also told viewers that the problems with the ObamaCare website has taken its toll.

“The president now is toxic,” Krauthammer said. “The thing is called ObamaCare, there is no running away from it. You see the president, you think about the policy and you know that it is a disaster and the problem for the Democrats is they are hostage to a bunch of Geeks working around, right now, late into the night trying to fix a system which is not just the glitches it talked about, the architecture, the underlying structure of it is wrong”

Pope Francis: No Such Thing as Innocent Gossip

(EWTN) Pope Francis spoke last week on the evils of gossiping, saying that ‘someone that speaks ill of his neighbor is a hypocrite that lacks courage to look to their own shortcomings.

Speaking during his homily at morning Mass at the Domus Sanctae Marthae, Pope Francis focus on the fact that gossip has a “criminal” side to it, Vatican Radio reported.

Every time that one speaks ill of another, we imitate Cain’s homicidal gesture the Holy Father said. The seed of Pope Francis’ homily was Jesus thought provoking query: “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?

Jesus speaks to us about the opposite of humility, Pope Francis observed, “…Of that hateful attitude towards one’s neighbor when one becomes a ‘judge’ of his brother.” In this context, Pope Francis pointed out, Jesus uses a strong word “hypocrite.”

“Those who live judging their neighbor, speaking ill of their neighbor, are hypocrites because they lack the strength and courage to look at their own shortcomings. The Lord does not waste many words on this concept. Further on He says He who has hated in his heart for his  brother is a murderer. In his first letter, John the Apostle also says it clearly: Anyone who has hated for his brother is a murderer, he walks in darkness, he who judges his brother walks in darkness.”

Thus, every time we judge one in our hearts or worse still, when we speak ill of them with others, we are Christian Murderers, Pope Francis said.
