Sometimes there is just nothing more to say. That is how I feel after finding an article suggesting that the Obamacare website fiasco is one more example of how Barack continues to use his position to reward friends and supporters, regardless of the consequences to our nation.
With that I mind, I encourage you to read the brief beforeitsnews.com article, quoted below in its entirety, and hope that you will pass it along to all interested people in your email address book.
No
Bid Contract For ObamaCare Website Was Given To Michelle Obama's Pal And
Sorority Sister
Wednesday, November 6, 2013 11:57
There's an interesting thing that's surfaced regarding the
disastrous $678 million ObamaCare website.
The company that built it, CGI Federal received a no bid contract to build the site, even though
four other companies submitted bids which were never reviewed. Only CGI’s bid
was considered.
And wouldn't you know it, there are a couple of other interesting
coincidences.
As the Daily Caller reported, Toni
Townes-Whitley, Princeton class of ’85, is the senior vice president at CGI
Federal…and not only a classmate and friend of the First Lady, who graduated
from Princeton the same year, but a sister at the all black sorority Alpha
Kappa Alpha and a fellow member of the Association of Black Princeton Alumni.
And to add to the mix, there's George Schindler, president of CGI,
who became an Obama Campaign donor after CGI won the lucrative
contract.
Even more interesting, there are rumors that CGI Technologies and
Solutions, Inc. PAC – CGI Group’s political action group that donates to the
campaigns – made a significant swing in donations to Democrats at around the
same time.
Now, no bid contracts have come up before. Democrats threw a huge
tantrum over no bid contracts awarded to Halliburton for services they
performed in Iraq because of former Vice Presidnt Dick Cheney's past employment
with them. Those services included saving Iraq's oil wells after Saddam Hussein
set them on fire after we invaded.
The difference was that for most of the work Halliburton performed
in Iraq, they were the only game in town and no other bids were submitted. Few
companies had the expertise and/or the equipment to do what Halliburton
contracted to do…observers who credited Halliburton with saving Iraq's oil
wells while avoiding an ecological disaster characterized it as a miracle. Not
only that, but few if any competitors were willing to send their equipment and
employees into a war zone or pony up for the huge insurance costs involved.
What happened with CGI was very different, with four other
companies submitting bids that were never even looked at.
It's the Chicago way…and always done using other people's money.
