Joe, what is the date of that hearing?

[Straw Man]

wow

I agree

wow - what an idiot (or willful liar) Joe Barton is

Joe - you were even mentioned in the article below

That source code included what seems like a very incriminating line, which Barton noted was not even visible to the user:

“[t]his is the part of the signup that is hidden. The applicant does not see this, but it is in the source code. And what that blue highlighted area that’s been circled in red says is, ‘You have no reasonable expectation of privacy regarding any communication or data transmitting or stored on this information system.’”

Except that, here’s the dealio: As Barton says, users don’t actually see that line, so they’re hardly agreeing to it. As for its being “in the source code,” it turns out that even the line Barton highlighted was merely inactive boilerplate copied over from another project and switched off in the code that actually runs on the ACA website. It doesn’t do anything. It is not actually part of the website. Barton’s “discovery” is a bit like complaining about a typo in a first draft that was deleted before the final version, but that can be found if you use “show changes.” He just didn’t mention that it has the programming equivalent of a line through it.

And considerably more important, nothing in the ACA application process asks anyone to reveal private health information, other than whether they smoke. It’s just plain not needed. Can’t very well violate HIPAA if you aren’t giving information that’s covered by HIPAA. And that grilling of Campbell is what triggered Pallone’s “Monkey court” comment. Beutler does some elaborating:

“Monkey court” was a headline grabber but the phrase didn’t in itself pertain to Pallone’s point, which was genuinely profound. Because Obamacare makes preexisting conditions discrimination is a thing of the past, it effectively eliminates one of the most invasive aspects of applying for health insurance, and the risks the process once posed to your health information privacy.

First-timers won’t appreciate it, but for all of Healthcare.gov’s problems, anyone who’s ever applied for insurance on the individual market prior to Obamacare will marvel at its simplicity. It eliminates the most time-consuming, and often degrading, part of the process altogether.

Not that Joe Barton especially cares that he’s lying about that “source code” — already, his grandstanding has gotten positive attention from the usual suspects in the wingnut echo chamber. Get ready to hear endless rants about the secret part of Obamacare that forces you to sign away your privacy rights, even though no such thing exists.

[Straw Man]

Joe Barton and Joe Loco are both morons

Joe this hearing was last year and the truth about what Barton was suggesting was immediately available

How is it that over a year later you still didn't get the memo?

[Coach is Back!]

Joe, what is the date of that hearing?

Hahah, as if it made a difference. lol

Joe, a response like this shows that you're a special kind of stupid

When most people own themselves into oblivion they are smart enough to realize it, admit it and move on

What they don't do is keep digging that hole by trying to ignore the facts and bring up other topics or make comments about vernacular, etc...

Are you actually so stupid you don't understand what a face plant you just make with this thread?

[240 is Back]

did he really say that about wind?

Hahahahah. You dug yourself the biggest hole when you voted for this loser......twice. lol

And here you are commenting on a meme instead of what's in the video.

well, i know the democrat that said the island of guam could tip over, is a stone cold idiot, and therefore I need to take everything they say with a grain of salt... I mean, how easily could this politician be duped if he/she lacks the basic understanding of simple science topics, that islands can't really flip over?   Which idiot dem was that?

So yes, anyone who says "Wind energy slows down the wind and therefore heats up the planet", regardless of their political party, is a complete idiot.  And everything this idiot says, regardless of party, should be examined as words of a person who can be fooled/tricked/manipulated by anyone with a 40 IQ, because, well, he kinda feels like he's a 36 or 37 IQ here.

what's in the video is Joe Barton being too stupid to know the text he is so concerned about is not only not in the legislation but the point he is trying to make is specious

I was going to respond to this as I remembered this was all bullshit, however, strawman has done it for me.

[Necrosis]

I see. Lol

You do realize that Joe Barton is wrong here correct? you do realize that there is a difference between truth and lies correct.

Shee-it, Coach, why not just "man up" and say you didn't realize that this issue was a year old and had been debunked?

(Unless you're trolling -- In which case it's kind of clever and you should definitely do more of this, lol)

Joe is not trolling.   He's the real deal.  He knows that facts have a strong liberal bias and should be dismissed without consideration

You've got to love the irony of the title of the thread

[Coach is Back!]

Yep, you got me on this one. The guys an idiot. Doesn't take away from the FACT that Obamacare is still a complete disaster.

you got yourself

I'm curious how you came upon this video and decided to post it

did you receive it in an email or did you just find it yourself and decide to post it

seriously, I'd like to know

[Necrosis]

Dear Coach,

after owning yourself, with no external coercion we have to take your claim that Obamacare is a disaster with a grain of salt.
