Without fanfare, Accenture has taken over work on the ObamaCare website. CGI Federal, the prior contractor, has four new contracts with DHHS and it is known that one of their top executives went to Purdue with Michelle Obama. The government did not go through established procurement methods for the CGI deal; it was a “no bid” contract. It is now revealed that Accenture also has a “no-bid” contract, worth $90 million. As it turns out, the company’s top analytic researcher there worked on Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign.

Now, isn’t that just soooo comfy?
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Recognizing that things can change in time, who would you
say are your favorites to run for the Presidency today? (Theo ~ Salt Lake City, UT)
A. Dr. Ben Carson, Allen West, Herman Cain, Ted Cruz, Marco
Rubio, Rand Paul… not necessarily in that order, but I’d like to see them all
take a stab at it and any one or two of them would make an outstanding President/Vice-President
team in my opinion. Yes, I categorically
rule out Chris Christie, Jeb Bush, John McCain, Mitt Romney and Martin Sheen.
Q. The Republicans justifiably keep trying to end
ObamaCare. But, they promised years ago
to come up with an alternative. Where is
it? (Julius ~ Jackson, WY)
A. John Boehner is saying they will introduce the alternative
in 2014. I hate to say this, but I’m not
excited; any legislation the House is coming up with these days is suspect. The Republican hierarchy is tainted by the
presence of die-hard Progressives.
Q. Did I hear that Senator Harry Reid is finally going to be
subjected to an ethics investigation?
(Les ~ Henderson, NV)
A. No, you didn’t.
But there IS a group pushing for it.
They say he used his influence and position to help a politically
connected casino get visas for foreign investors. They allege that the Obama Administration,
after repeated calls from Reid and his staffers, overruled career Homeland
Security officials and expedited visa applications for about two dozen foreign
investors for the casino. I wonder if
the casino is where Obama stayed when he flew to Vegas during the Benghazi
Massacre…
