Obama Administration Memo: Security Flaws In HealthCare.Gov are "Limitless"
Flashback: Obama Says Biggest Problem In His First Term Was Lack Of Good Storytelling

Unbelievable Par for the course (warning for autoplay video).

[HealthCare.gov's project manager Henry] Chao said he was unaware of a Sept. 3 government memo written by another senior official at CMS. It found two high-risk issues, which are redacted for security reasons. The memo said "the threat and risk potential (to the system) is limitless." The memo shows CMS gave deadlines of mid-2014 and early 2015 to address them.

But Chao testified he'd been told the opposite.

Chao says he was told the opposite and was "surprised" that the first time he saw the memo is when congressional staffers showed it to him during his testimony.

A Republican staff lawyer asked, "Do you find it surprising that you haven't seen this before?"

Chao replied, "Yeah ... I mean, wouldn't you be surprised if you were me?" He later added: "It is disturbing. I mean, I don't deny that this is ... a fairly nonstandard way" to proceed.

So the guy in charge of the project claims he never saw this red flag memo and that he was told the exact opposite. The Obama administration knew that there were "limitless" security flaws that could lead to identity theft and they couldn't hope to fix them for over a year and they launched anyway.

Don't worry, we've go top men on this. Top. Men.

Flashback- Obama says his biggest first term mistake was not telling enough good stories.

“When I ran, everybody said, ‘Well, he can give a good speech, but can he actually manage the job?’” he went on to explain. “And in my first two years, I think the notion was, ‘Well, he’s been juggling and managing a lot of stuff, but where’s the story that tells us where he’s going?’ And I think that was a legitimate criticism.”

Going forward, the president said he plans to spend more time outside of Washington with the American people, “listening to them and also then being in a conversation with them about where we go as a country. I need to do a better job of that in my second term.”

Yeah, that's what went wrong in the first term...stories. Oh and the implementation of the single biggest government program in a generation but let's stick with the story thing.
